Accommodations Review: |
The room was fantastic. we had a kids suite. we had a
living room with a kitchenette and bathroom and the first
bedroom had bunk beds with a trundle bed and the kids had
their own TV and VCR. the second bedroom had a king-sized bed
its own vanity area and TV as well as a closet. we had 3 TV's which helped for it rained
every night we got back from WDW so
we could not swim. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review: |
Very expensive buffet. not worth the money. kids eat free
but only at certain restaurants at certain times. The free
breakfast made up for this. It had hot food as well as cold
and to go boxes. so we had lunch for the park everyday taken
care of. |

Pool Description/Comments: |
Zero entry pool was fantastic. Our only gripe, and we got
a night free, kids under 4 must be in plastic swim pants, and
not disposable swim diapers. You get a coupon for $2 off to
buy them from the hotel. The wording is deceptive on the
coupon we thought they were for the disposable diapers I had
with us. It was not until the morning we were checking out
that the kids got kicked out of the pool for not having the
right diaper on. We chose this hotel for their swim policy,
but the subcontractors who patrol the pool are rude. so
beware. The pool has lots of pumps and spraying water and
bikes to ride as well as a separate fenced area for a kids
pool, and a playground. |
