Not only does CoCo Key offer great family rooms with plenty of space in the heart of Orlando, it boasts it's own water park too — one of the best in the area! With 14 slides, three heated pools and a state-of-the-art gaming arcade, kids of all ages can play to their hearts content all day, every day. You're also just a hop and a skip away from a myriad of Orlando attractions (including the theme parks), so there's never a dull moment! And although restaurants abound (you can walk to over 50 restaurants and shops), The Tradewinds Restaurant on-site is a great place to dine, feasting on deep south favourites, followed by amazing dessert selections. A daily entertainment program means the kids will be making friends in no time, including movies screened by the pool and interesting activities that are hosted by the hotel staff. Look for the hotel mascot CoCo in the morning and afternoon for photo opportunities.

🌊 **Coco Key Orlando Review** 🌊
I recently stayed for one night, and I have to say the water park experience was a solid 10! The kids had an amazing time, and it was definitely the highlight of our stay.
The rooms were clean, which I appreciated, but they really need updating or renovation. Walking into the lobby, I thought, "Okay, this is nice!"—the decor was appealing. However, I was quite disappointed overall, especially considering the rates, the resort fees, and the hefty $63 overnight parking fee.
I truly hope they expedite the room upgrades to enhance the overall experience. On a positive note, the staff was fantastic, especially Nick, who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable.
Would I go back to the water park? Absolutely! But for an overnight stay, I think I’ll hold off until improvements are made.

This was a terrible experience. check in was terrible. We have come 2 years in a row now and convinced our friends to come this year too and we were so embarrassed for doing that. On top of a terrible experience we got charged more than expected. Will never be staying here again. Our friends were nervous because of previous bad reviews and we told them to not listen to the reviews but we should’ve believed the poor reviews.

I had to do a lot of work to prepare the room for our stay. It was very humid, I bought a Dehumidifier from Walmart to pull the moisture out of the air. It filled up quickly.
I wiped the walls and the room down with vinegar, brought my own cleaning supplies. I have allergies. Not sure if the bugs were roaches, but caught some as soon as we entered the rooms. So I placed bug traps around the room.
The housekeeper took my clorox wipes and I called front desk and housekeeping from 3 days no one ever returned them. It was never truly investigated.
Bring you own towels. The hotel towels are not well cleaned or absorbent.
The staff seemed stressed and not very focused. Just going through the motions at check in.
The other guest and water park made our vacation enjoyable. We met people from all around the world. Kids all played well together.
Just praying for the people in Florida to find joy again. There was definitely a shift in service and customer service.

Great hotel and in a central location to go down the road to Universal and SeaWorld. Lovely and modern in the lobby and around the pools, outside areas. They were very accommodating to our needs on arrival and we were placed in an appropriate room which was quiet and spacious. The inside of the room was a bit dated and could do with an upgrade at some point to reflect the rest of the hotel. It had everything we needed and our beds were made up, fresh towels and the room was cleaned on a daily basis, we were surprised to get back to a tidy and clean room after breakfast each day. We had the buffet breakfast there most days and were given 20% off and kids ate free so worked out a great price. Food was good and lots of choice. Starbucks on site was another favourite for breakfast and coffees. There was a small food and gift shop on site. The water park was fun, only used once as we spent most of our time at the Universal parks. The swimming pools were great and towels for the pools were provided as well as room towels.
Ubers to universal were around 5-10 dollars per trip, mostly the lower end.
Our stay was great and would definitely consider returning again in the future.

Coco key hotel on International Drive.
The room, was large clean and tidy. Aircon worked well. However, the tap in the sink had been replaced, but there was no lever to open the plug, meaning i had to reach underneath to find what was left of the lever to empty the sink. I had to repair the toilet cistern because the flush mechanism failed. The bath tap ran constantly because it needed a new washer. The room smelled damp. Ut had two interconnecting doors meaning we heard the neighbours clearly.
It was a good base but given that it was not considerably cheaper than Universal it was disappointing. Overall, we would not stay here again.
