Native American land or ownership or both...
The Hard Rock Hotels and Casinos are owned by the Seminole Indians. And Indians can own casinos.

The Hard Rock is owned by the Seminole and operated by Hard Rock.
Sovereign nation. Own rules.

Assuming that we’re getting both Jurassic World and KFP from Beijing, we now have:
- Four dark rides (Mario Kart, Yoshi, Gyrosphere, KFP)
- Two coasters (Donkey Kong, Jurassic World)
- Two flat rides (both in KFP)
- One show (Jurassic World)

For some reason,the entire KFP land is in orange on the leaked Beijing layout. That orange is used on both Jurassic World’s show and Waterworld, but it’s also used for meet and greets (which I didn’t notice until after I made the post). I’m assuming that the characters will walk around the entire land, instead of staying in one spot like normal.
Perhaps your confusing the coloring from that art for something?
Becasue looking at the keying art someone did on Themeparx, it seems like there may be 2-3 attractions for KFP, and that it might just be more orange because of it being enclosed?
I’m not entirely sure, tbh. But orange is used on the Jurassic World show, Waterworld, two buildings in Hollywood, a building in Minion Park, and a small building in Cybertron. It might be because it’s enclosed, or it might not.
I do notice there are 3 red markings for that area though; which leads me to think that the orange is just meaning to encapsulate the area around it (especially if it's enclosed/covered like it's seeming to be).
Its titled show attraction in the KFP section. I wasn't going off the legend by the actual text descriptions within the land.

Didn’t someone say Uni was taking inspiration from TDS. Thematically it’s one of the best parks to study so I hope they are looking at their competition to see where to improve on.It'd be a premier, there is no ifs or buts in that regard.
And to be honest, as long as it's themed with the land it's accustomed with, similar to MiraCosta (or if they do something nice and victorian like similar to Disneyland Paris Hotel); I'd be completely fine with it.
(and just to reference MiraCosta)

Excuse me, what?
EDIT: Kong may get two rides, and you might be hearing about the second. But no way in hell do they get rid of that coaster.

But the Seminoles bought out Hard Rock not long after they opened the Casino on their land near Hollywood FL.
The Hard Rock Hotel at UoR was built at a time when the Hard Rock only had casinos and many thought FL would legalize gambling.
I think one thing that scares Disney about gaming is that it could shift more tourist to the coast.
I wonder where/what the park’s verticality is going to be? The lands, from what we know, are mostly flat, with the exclusion of Jurassic World’s small dome/mountain.
Also, how is a park-attached hotel going to work here, if this is truly a hub-and-spoke? The hotels are normally attached to the main entry-area, but the hub is probably going to be in the middle of the park.

Disneyland Paris Hotel has its entrance underneath the Paris Flagship park, and they do the classic Hub/Spoke like the others.
