The best thing about this resort is its location
if the Disney attractions are where you are
headed. The resort is tucked away off of Highway
192, just west of the Disney entrance. You are at
the Disney entrance in 5 minutes. We own a
2-bedroom unit, but bought it without seeing it,
so we have no emotional attachment to this resort.
The resorts grounds are very nice and very well
maintained. The plants and shrubs are very well
groomed. There are also palm trees throughout the
complex. The grounds were very clean. The pool
area was very inviting and surrounding by palm
trees. They heat the pool to 80 degrees so even
winter swimming is not out of the question. The
whole complex is boxed on two sides by lower grade
motels, but that is the "parking lot" side of the
complex and not visible from the "inner grounds"
of the resort. There is a nice kids play area
between the buildings as well as a gazebo
containing 4 gas grills.
The unit itself was typical of a decent apartment.
The decor was a bit dated but clean and well
maintained and in working order. The two bedrooms
are upstairs and each contain a separate bathroom
inside the bedroom. Downstairs in basically one
big room containing the living room furniture and
a kitchen table seating 4. In addition, the
kitchen wall doubles as a sit down bar with 2
stools. There is a bathroom downstairs as well
that has a shower (no tub). But the unit does
allow 3 people to get ready at once in the morning.
There is a sliding glass door off the living room
to a nice screened in porch with a table with 4
chairs. A great place for morning breakfast and
reading the paper. The porch exits into the nicely
maintained grounds.
We only had one need to contact maintenance (as
the porch screen had come out) and it was handled
properly. The staff at check in and check out was
quick and polite.
Bottom line: this isn't a "resort" that will knock
your socks off, but is a great "condo" that is a
nice place to spend a week.
