Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa Universal Studios Area

10/10 Excellent

"The property and rooms were in pristine condition. A vast number of amenities available throughout the resort will be sure to keep you busy"

Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando - Disney Springs Area

10/10 Excellent

"We will most definitely be staying at this hotel again. The room was the perfect size, super clean, and having a fridge and microwave in the room made things so much easier for us since we were traveling with our infant. Also, I specifically chose this hotel due to it's location and the fact that it included daily breakfast, but were pleasantly surprised when we found out that they also included daily dinner and 3 free drinks for each adult! This allowed us to save a lot more money, and made our stay even more stress-free since we had everything we needed at the same location. The staff was great and super helpful and I highly recommend!"

Fairfield Inn & Suites Lake Buena Vista in Marriott Village

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff and breakfast"

Sheraton Vistana Resort Villas, Lake Buena Vista/Orlando

8/10 Good

"We would definitely stay here again the sprawling grounds were great for a morning or evening walk. The marketplace, pools, and recreational activities were easy to find and close in proximity. We had issues with our unit’s electricity and staff were quick to respond to remedy the matter. Newly renovated, well kept accommodations. I would have given all fives if bell services were more immediately available. We waited for over 10 minutes for someone just to appear at the desk once we arrived and then when our room was assigned. Even though staff were friendly and efficient having no electricity prevented me from charging my devices when needed, which was an issue for preparing for a long day the parks. All in all, this resort is on my resort list to stay in the future for location, the grounds, and the spacious comfortable rooms! Thanks!"
