Nice property! Large! They have shuttle buses to get around! We enjoyed all 5 pools! (Not 7 as one is under construction and 1 is adults only) but they are all nice and hot tubs at most! It's a lot of walking but shuttle buses are around the property! They have beautiful views of the water! With spa and shops right there! We easily took Ubers to Disney springs and universal studios. The waterpark is very small but we did enjoy it one day. Over all is was nice with a gorgeous room! We loved our balcony view with coffee every am!

I was here for work at the Convention center and this location was perfect! It was super safe as there is 24hr security, love the small kitchen so I didn’t have to eat out the entire time, took work calls from balcony that overlooked the lake, and the calm walking trail was perfect after a crazy day of work.

From the moment we checked in to the time we were headed home this resort hit above and beyond. Very spacious accommodations and easy to navigate the property. Loved trying out all the pools and the kids were welcome everywhere on the property other than the designated adults only pool. Thank you for a great vacation!
