We stayed in the hotel in December 2024 with the intention of spending most of the two weeks in the theme parks nearby.

We stayed in the hotel in December 2024 with the intention of spending most of the two weeks in the theme parks nearby. The hotel is perfectly placed for all the Disney parks, with each one being less than 15 minutes away in different directions. Welcome was great with complimentary drinks supplied to all of us. We headed straight to the room to drop our bags then the restaurant for a late meal as we were hungry and too tired to go exploring. The wife had salmon and said if she could have it every night of the holiday she would be in heaven. I didnt fancy much of the veggie options, with it being a fish restaurant by design, but had a decent cheese pizza off the kids menu for 6 quid. Room was ok, couple of issues with trying to work out how to use the shower and the air con and the sliding door of the wardrove wouldnt stay open, but nothing too worry about. Actually when we could get the shower to work it wouldnt cool down and was too hot to get under. We went to reception on our way out for the day and by the time we got back it was fixed and never had any other issue with it. Pools are HUGE. One was not heated so cold in December, but the other was a nice luke warm temperature so me and my son spent many hours in there at the end of the day when it was practically deserted. Man on the towels was really friendly and the bar service was gvreat as were the margaritas. Live music in the bar was really good. I spent a few nights in there on my own racking uop a bar tab and relaxing to it. Friendly bar staff attended to my every need. Would definitely recommend as a great base for a holiday. Would love to go back at some point in the future. Read less

Clean, vibrant, and very welcoming. I loved receiving a drink when I checked in--it just added to the vacation vibe! The decor is very beachy, and the food is good. There is a heated pool, a non-heated pool and a hot tub, so something for everyone, and we spent one afternoon lounging away. There are many stores on the premises, as well as off if… Read more
Clean, vibrant, and very welcoming. I loved receiving a drink when I checked in--it just added to the vacation vibe! The decor is very beachy, and the food is good. There is a heated pool, a non-heated pool and a hot tub, so something for everyone, and we spent one afternoon lounging away. There are many stores on the premises, as well as off if you forget anything, and a shuttle will take you around the resort if you have to go any distance. They also have shuttles to Disney World. I was disappointed to find out that the water park wasn't open--but it was unusually cold for Florida, so it was just as well. The Margaritas were awesome, especially the pineapple jalapeno one, and it was pleasant to be able to kick back at the bar and watch the football championships. A few things to note: gratuities are included in the bar/restaurant bills, which mostly they are at pains to tell you. I think the pillows are very firm, and would have appreciated one that was a little softer, but I still slept well. At the pool they have cabanas with drapes that you can rent if you want privacy or have a family party--but I think that they would be better served to suspend the rental fee if there are not a lot of folks using the pools. It's one thing if the resort is really crowded, but I saw a few families who were not happy at being told about the need to rent. An unhappy guest is not a good thing, as many amenities at the resort can be pricy. But in the main, it was a fabulous stay. Read less
