Dining

The El Centro town center features restaurants, shops and an amusement arcade. Full table service is available at Maya Grill, a breakfast and dinner only restaurant serving Latin-American cuisine in a Mayan decor. The lobby sets the theme for the resort with its Aztec styling.

The Pepper Market Food Court offers Latin, American, Italian and Asian cooking plus a bakery all set in lively street market setting.

There are also two shops, La Tienda Convenience Store and Panchito's Gifts and Sundries selling Disney merchandise and a small amount of groceries and snacks.

Near the Pepper Market is Francisco's Lounge, a 200 seat lounge where you can get south-western drinks like margaritas and tequila as well as snacks.

Recreation

In the center of the resort is an area called the Dig Site which is modeled after an archeologists dig and featuring a 5 storey Mayan Pyramid with waterfalls, 'spitting' jaguars and a 123ft water slide feeding into the Lost City of Cibola feature pool.

There is also the Siesta Pool Bar and Grill serving drinks and snacks, the Explorer's Playground where children can search for the fabled Seven Cities of Gold or play in the fountains and the Iguana Arcade. You can also play beach volleyball or relax in the largest whirlpool in the whole of Disney (room for 22 people!!).

If you fancy something a little quieter, then each village also has its own 'quiet' heated swimming pool plus there is a separate children's pool.

A variety of watercraft including kayaks, canopy boats and Mercury WaterMouse can be rented to explore the lake from La Marina or you can also rent fishing rods and bicycles. Alternatively there is a 0.9 jogging track all the way around Lago Dorado.
