Accommodations Review:
|
This was our first use of DVC points. Our studio was on the top
floor right in the middle of the resort looking down on Luna Park
and the pool. The view was impressive. You have views of the Swan
hotel, MGM studios and the canal that leads from the Swan-Dolphin
to MGM. The studio 5058 was well appointed, seemed newly painted and
overall made our stay memorable. The kitchenette makes breakfast
and cocktail hour easy. From check-in to valet parking the Boardwalk
is truly a first class experience. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
We've stayed at many Disney resorts and found this one to have so
much going for it. Close to EPCOT and MGM. Great location to stay
for the Food and Wine festival. |

Very helpful and accommodating making for a great start. Room was
ready by 3:00pm.Check out no problems and bell staff was very quick
and attentive. From phone call to bell services to loading car

Pretty much bus from anywhere goes to Beach Club, Yacht Club, then
Swan and Dolphin then Typhoon Lagoon before getting to your destination.
Better off with a car ! |
