Accommodations Review:

The rooms and atmosphere at this resort are great. If you are looking for a place to relax, this is a great place to do so.

Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?

My family and I have stayed here every time we go to Orlando/WDW area and we remain satisfied with this resort.

Room # and Location Description:

Aruba

Room Location Pros & Cons:

Room location depends on where you are at resort. Many places like Barbados and Trinidad south will leave you walking 20-30 minutes to Old Port Royale (eating place). Aruba is a good location because of the large beach area it has and the foot bridge to Old Port Royale is close. The location from the room to the bus stop is usually a long walk which definitely could be shortened for all "islands" in the resort.

Check-In / Check-Out Comments:

Check-In usually goes pretty smoothly. This trip however, they did separate us from the group. A guest relations person got us another room though that was next to our party. Check out was good.

WDW Transportation Comments:

Excellent. We only had to drive the rent-a-car to the beach (of course) and to and from the airport. Transportation their will take you to any resort or park.

Restaurant / Lounge Review:

Breakfast and lunch are good at the Old Port Royale. They have a great variety of food to eat there. The dinner though is the same as lunch so if you eat at OPR often, the food gets redudent. Pizza is great here though! And since they deliver to your room, it makes easier than walking over. =)

Pool Description / Comments:

With each country on the resort having it's own pool, it makes the main pool less crowded, which is a good thing. They seem to be cleaned fairly well. Another thing is, they allow you to stay in even after the pool closes

What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This Resort?

My suggestion is to try to reserve Trinidad North, Aruba or Martinique for it's shortest paths to the eating locations. Another suggestion is get ready for walking because this resort requires a lot of it.

Other Comments:

Rooms are spacious and cleaned extremely well. They are in some ways, ordinary but for the price per room, they well worth it.
