Apr 09, 2026Didn’t want to go home!
Pros: Beautiful resort. The location is perfect. Daily housekeeping. Got upgraded from a King Larger Premium Room to a larger suite. Front desk was quick to send up anything we needed. Free water bottles. Our room was lovely and quiet. Mobile order worked great for the coffee shop. Food at the Cabana was good. Love watching the Epcot fireworks from the bridge. The roll away was a nice twin bed. Cons: our room was not ready at 4:00, but management gave us a double room to store our groceries and luggage in while we went to the pool. That room smelled like a teen’s cleats. I would have been very sad if that was our room for the week.

Strong option with great location
This is a really strong option for families visiting disney, especially if you are using points. Price is very competitive compared to disney resorts with the perk of much greater array of dining options (quick, casual, fine dining). We quickly realized even the nicer restaurants were very kid friendly. Really liked Kimonos. You get 7 day window for booking lightning lanes and early entry. Resort is huge with beautiful pools with slide. We were always able to find pool chairs despite it being a spring break week. The nightly smores and beach movie, arcade, laundry and bowling were nice amenities as well. Location is fantastic! You can walk or take boats to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. You can easily walk to skyliner outside of epcot entrance and that makes for a fun day to visit other resorts to eat etc. At night the resort and walkways are lit up woth changing lights and quite impressive. You can easily walk to the disney boardwalk for more dining options as well as to see the boardwalk performers. Areas to improve is there was lots of confusion at bellhop on if we could check our stroller daily and room cleaning was sometimes late or inconsistent. The AI for calling front desk or chats I didnt love felt impersonal. 35$/night charge plus tax for rollaway even though rooms are listed as fitting 5 and 50$ for resort fee adds up so keep an eye on those when price comparing. Besides these things I think this resort is still a great option for families coming to Disney!

Apr 04, 2026Stay away from this hotel
Accommodations below par. Service awful!! Despite repeated contacts in person and on phone I wasn’t able to get my room cleaned, even ran out of toilet paper. Even a crummy motel has better service. Also they were rude.

dolphin stay
This is our 3rd time going to the HPE conference. The staff was amazing from the shops, restaurants, front desk, cleaning staff and bars. Everyone was helpful when you got lost. It was easy to take a bus to Walt Disney World. You could also walk the board walk for more shopping, activities, and food. They also offered boat rides to different stops and the parks. Rooms were very nice. Beds and pillows were great. But I still think the staff makes this place.

Apr 01, 2026Great three night stay!!!
Great three night stay for a relaxing, comfy bed and a great shower. After going to three major theme parks this location was a much needed place for rest, shower and to decompress. Very convenient to Epcot. We took the ferry or walked in the Boardwalk to get to the entrance area. Plenty of places to eat in the area. Our room was spacious, roomy and clean. Highly recommend this for a good stay!!!
