“Great for Large Families”

Great hotel for a large family that wants to be close to Disney without paying "Disney Bubble" prices. Stayed a portion of our stay here and it was great. Very spacious and had tons of amenities.

Great hotel for a large family that wants to be close to Disney without paying "Disney Bubble" prices. Stayed a portion of our stay here and it was great. Very spacious and had tons of amenities. The gym at the time was open but not yet completed so styrofoam and boxes were an inconvenience. The convenience store was very convenient but VERY pricey. The rooms were a little outdated but very clean. The kitchen had every appliance you may need and lots of dishware and cutlery. If you plan to use the oven, maybe bring oven tools like oven tray. Bed spelt great. Great location near Disney and stores like Publix but traffic near entrance/exit was a congested during commute hours. Very secure as a code is needed ro enter the property. Would highly recommend, regardless.

“Pay for parking needs to go!”

We've been going to this resort twice a year since 2015. While we still enjoy the stay, the parking cost I cannot get past. We stayed for 12 days and paid more to park the car at the resort than to rent it from the car company. If they decide to keep this hidden fee, we will not be returning to the… more

We've been going to this resort twice a year since 2015. While we still enjoy the stay, the parking cost I cannot get past. We stayed for 12 days and paid more to park the car at the resort than to rent it from the car company. If they decide to keep this hidden fee, we will not be returning to the resort. There are others in the area that do not charge this fee, and it is nothing more than a money grab to try to pay for the new buildings they are sticking up in the back of the resort.

“Fantastic room but way too noisy at night”

We stayed for a week. We booked via British Airways Holidays and I don’t know if it was because of that or because we are from the UK but we had no hard sell of the timeshare element of the resort on check in. Positives: The room was fantastic, like a full apartment and it’s great to have a washer … more

We stayed for a week. We booked via British Airways Holidays and I don’t know if it was because of that or because we are from the UK but we had no hard sell of the timeshare element of the resort on check in. Positives: The room was fantastic, like a full apartment and it’s great to have a washer and dryer included. Everything worked and the room was very clean, and housekeeping came every other day. Negatives: for us it was too noisy. All the rooms are arranged round a pool area and the pool is open from 7am to 11pm. That’s both an earlier start and a later finish than other places we’d stayed. During those hours there was music playing and lots of noise from people. Two nights the music wasn’t turned off at 11, and the first night it was on all night. The second we called reception and they sent security out to turn it off but that took nearly an hour and a second phone call. Another night an alarm was going off for ages. There was also noise from people on their balconies way into the early hours. It seems like security don’t patrol the resort at night or else they would have noticed a lot of these things and sorted them out. As others have mentioned although there’s not a resort fee they do charge for parking so be aware of this as it adds a considerable cost if you are staying for a week or two. So overall the room was great but we’d not stay here again as it was far too noisy for us.
