Totally Disney. This is a wonderful resort with everything you hope
for when you stay at a Disney property. The atmosphere was so authentic
it almost felt like we were in the Pacific NW. The attention to detail
and little touches make it very special. The one bedroom villa is
the perfect size for a family to relax during that all important afternoon
break without getting under each others feet. We only used the full
kitchen to store leftovers but I can see how it can be a real money
saver. Though I prefer the layout of the Old Key West villas better
I found these rooms cozy, family friendly, very clean and a good value
for the money. I highly recommend this resort if it is within your
budget. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
We wanted the extra space that a one bedroom villa would offer. |
Room # and Location Description:
|
Room 2057, overlooking the quiet pool with a small view of the water.
We we able to see part of the water parade from our room. Very nice
and very quiet. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
Pros were the water view, there were no cons |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
Very quick and efficient. We checked in at 10am and of course our
room wasn't ready. We had lunch at Whispering Canyon (fair) and by
the time we were finished our room was ready. Excellent service |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
Very efficient, though I didn't like having to transfer at the Transportation
Center to get to several locations. We used our car after the 2nd
day. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
Roaring Fork, good value for a quick snack or meal for the kids.
Whispering Canyon was fair, though some of the antics made it worth
while. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
The kids loved the main pool. Especially the waterfall that made
you have to swim "up stream." |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
If it's in the budget, go for it. Great location and super atmosphere. |
Other Comments:
|
The bed in the bedroom was nice and hard. One of the better hotel
beds I've ever slept in. Enjoy |
