Accommodations Review:

Pros: Gorgeous rooms - every amenity with high
quality furnishings and appliances. Fully equipped kitchen,
spacious DR/LR, washer&dryer, king MBR suite with double
Jacuzzi and separate shower, 2nd BR with 2 queen beds and large
bath, screened patio with comfy furniture. Very spacious and
attractive. Resort activities numerous - great for families.
Cons: High pressure for sales, with repeated phone calls asking
us to attend, despite our decline. Landscaping is not very lush -
green but simple. Activities are spread throughout the resort, but
sporting equipment is only available at one end of the property. |
Rate/Night (for your stay):
|
Was a special for RCI members in off-off-season -
$200/week. Don't know regular pricing. |

Main pool area offered poolside bar & food -
didn't use it. Room delivery available by area businesses. 24 hour
mini-mart on-property very convenient. |

Pool Description/Comments:
|
Numerous pool areas, within easy walking distance of
all buildings. Ours was freeform with a hot tub, kiddie pool and
rest rooms/phone. The main pool area was most elaborate and had
evening music. |
Other Comments:
|
Many scheduled activities and some meals poolside.
Good location for Disney visits and spacious, attractive rooms.
Avoid the salespeople, even if they say it's just a "room
maintenance review" - it's still a sales pitch. |
