This was my second time staying here. Love to go here just to relax by the pool and enjoy drinks from the bar. The only complaint I have is the bar closes entirely too early! People go on vacation to drink and or enjoy the pool. This would be the perfect opportunity to have a band or dj and have a party!! This would bring in more revenue for not only the resort but the staff working it. Read less

One frying pan and nothing to flip eggs with was a problem for us. More storage in the kitchen. Although there were cupboards we did end up with lots of things on the side. The card access to the buildings is very temperamental could do with a new system or a code that can be manually typed in. Read less

The Resort is beautiful and the unit was clean and exactly what we needed to make everyone comfortable. We had a three bedroom unit and it was more than enough room for everyone. Resort location was perfect, close to everything. This would be my first choice whenever we visit Orlando again.

Very spacious we did use the pull out bed and it was the most comfortable one I've ever experienced. Great location. Shopping opposite was good. Didn't eat at the hotel or the Irish bar so can't comment on those. What little interaction we had with the staff (just check in and check out) because that was all we needed was great, very polite and friendly. Saw some comments about being bullied into attending the chat about holiday/time shares. Can say that is not the case the guy who spoke to us after we checked in was lovely and not pushy and accepted our answer so please don't be put off. Would definitely come back Read less

Return last month Wished we knew a tip on how to check for BED BUGS !!! After a week of a perfect holiday my wife started to sore insect bites, thought it was from the parks so thought nothing of it with it being hot and humid. 3 days later bite marks getting worse , blood marks now on the bed sheets , we actually food 3 of the bugs . Reported to reception which they give us another apartment with no fuss !! Reported a few issues with the apartment which maintenance eventually repaired 1 being a broken ceiling fan which probably didn’t help with the bug issue?? It did spoil our holiday My wife had 2 days which she stay in , too sore to adventure out . The resort is in a fabulous location for Universal , Disney and Seaworld with shuttle busses going to the parks , simply order them the night before. Convenience store , well stocked, yes a little pricey compared with publixs which is round the corner but it’s what you’d expect. Read less
