Location:
|
Off Westwood Blvd., about 2 min. from Sea World and
10 min. from WDW. |
Ease of WDW Park Access:
|
I don't believe there's a shuttle to the parks; we
had a car and had no trouble getting to or from WDW and Sea World. |

Accommodations Review:
|
2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo with fully equipped
kitchen, dining area, living room, washer/dryer, screened balcony.
It was excellent! We loved Cypress Harbor. The rooms are spacious
and comfortably furnished, and the property is beautifully
landscaped and maintained. |
Rate/Night (for your stay):
|
Family members traded their timeshare week for a
week here. I believe the rack rate is $240/night. |
# of Restaurants/Lounges:
|
Lounge; Pizza Hut pizza available. This resort is
primarily a timeshare; as such, it doesn't have the number of
restaurants a hotel would have. |
Restaurant/Lounge Review:

Activities/Facilities Available:
|
Lighted tennis courts, 3 outdoor pools, health club,
whirlpools, lake with boating and fishing, sauna, bike rentals,
children's play area, game room, activities room with daily events
scheduled, gift shop/convenience store/deli, video rentals, pizza
take-out or room delivery, golf course adjacent to resort. |
Pool Description/Comments:
|
We visited 2 of the 3 pool areas, and both were
interestingly designed and beautiful. They're connected by a
boardwalk that spans the resort's lake. One pool (adjacent to the
lounge) had a bubbling shallow end and a volleyball net across the
pool for water volleyball. The other pool had a waterfall and
lanes for lap swimming. Both were large. Both pool areas had hot
tubs, separate children's pools, plenty of adjustable chaise
lounges, and some tables with chairs |
Amenities Provided:
|
Hairdryer; Jacuzzi; washer and dryer; iron and
ironing board; kitchen stocked with dishes, cookware, barware,
full-size refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and coffee
maker; counter with barstools off the kitchen; glass-topped dining
room table that seats 6; in-room safe; TVs (with cable) in the
living room and both bedrooms; VCR; ceiling fans in the living

and pillows; fold-out couches in living room and second bedroom.
(Although the resort is a timeshare, housekeeping service is

dishes.) |
Other Comments:
|
The units at this resort are very large and very
comfortable. This would be an excellent choice for a family.
