Hotels in Lake Buena Vista, FL

“Animal Kingdom is another great place to stay if you're not looking for shiny and bright, I'm more of a outdoor person so this resort is very comfortable that suits my personality, looking at the different animals that are at the resort is of course the main features I hear Avatar is really nice but I don't do the theme parks so I will just have to take other people's word”

“We had an amazing stay at Disney’s Polynesian Resort with our family. From the moment we arrived to the time we left, everything felt truly magical. The rooms were clean, updated, and very well maintained, which made our stay even more comfortable.

The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our visit, always going out of their way to help. One of the absolute highlights was watching the Magic Kingdom fireworks right from the beach—such an unforgettable experience.

They also have a great variety of restaurants on-site, which made dining easy and enjoyable with plenty of options to choose from.

This resort really delivers on both atmosphere and experience. We’re already looking forward to coming back again!”

“I recently stayed at Art of Animation for the first time and I really enjoyed my experience!My friend and I booked a Little Mermaid room and were pixie dusted (upgraded) into a Cars suite. This was a BEYOND magical experience but it definitely not the norm. The Cars suite was super roomy, cozy, and incredibly close to the cafeteria, as well as the Skyliner (my favorite perk of this resort).Although, I think if we would've stayed in our original Little Mermaid room, we would've been exhausted by the back and forth trips to the cafeteria and Skyliner, as they are quite far away. And since the Little Mermaid rooms are the only "standard" ones (the only ones that are actually a Value part of the Value Resort), I don't think we would've enjoyed our time as much.So I highly recommend Art if you are able to swing a family suite but if you are only able to get a standard, I would recommend looking into Pop Century; a very similar resort that also has access to the Skyliner but ONLY has standard (Value) rooms.”

“Great value. Comfortable. Direct buses to WDW theme parks. Quite. Great staff interactions. I have no significant complaints.Rooms: 2 Queen beds , a pull out sofa separate bathroom and water closet. Very comfortable and quiet. Ample space for four adults.”

“Had a wonderful time here!!
Loved the short and convenient walk to Epcot, the skyliner, and the boats.
The buses were also an easy way to get to and from the other parks.
This was our first experience visiting Disney and from check-in to check-out everything was exceptional.
The marketplace had great quick meal options and a lot of snacks to choose from.
We enjoyed breakfast at the Cape May Cafe one morning, we had very good food and the characters brought a lot of happiness to the children in our family.
My favorite way to end the day was stopping at Beaches and Cream for their fresh ice cream!!! That was the first thing I missed once our vacation ended.
We received bed bumpers for our child to sleep safely in the bed on their own. We appreciated how accommodating the staff was! It was great to experience a hotel that had so much on hand to help families have a comfortable stay with their children.

Lastly, the morning after checking out I realized I left behind a singular air pod in the bed sheets. I filled a lost and found report online and received a reply less than five hours later. Staff from the Beaches Resort found my item and they immediately provided a tracking number to the package they were sending with my item. I received my air pod 4 days after leaving Disney.
That level of honesty and integrity is what really makes this resort stand out.
Every family should feel this safe and secure while enjoying a vacation. Beaches Resort has great staff that will make your stay exceptional!”

“Nearby activities: You can view the fireworks from this building.

Walkability: The signs are helpful if you pay attention to them.

Food and drinks: Amazing specialty drinks and bars.”

“the rooms were very clean, service was fast and helpful, but the location is right outside of disney magic kingdom so there is a lot of traffic to go in and out so i would suggest going here if you plan on going to disney kingdomNearby activities: lots of activitys, pools, and things to do inside of the hotel areaWalkability: lots of place to walk, kind of like its own small townNoteworthy details: pools close at 10 and open at 8”

“We stayed one night on New Year's Eve Eve in a studio room. The room was nice. It was slightly smaller than we initially expected but still very nice. We were on the 3rd floor with no real view, so for the fireworks, we just went to the 7th floor and watched with a nice view from lobby windows at the elevators. Definitely would stay again, but we would probably prefer a 1 bedroom better.”

“Really nice resort and layout. Convenient use of the skyline to two of the parks. The toppolinos restaurant is greatFood & drinks: Great food and views at the restaurant”

“This was an AMAZING resort! Our room was very accommodating with large comfortable beds that had plenty of storage space underneath. All the furniture was attractive and sturdy with plenty of storage space; I'd love to have the same furnishings at home (such as the bench with a fold-down bed and drawers at the bottom). The room had a warm and cozy tropical feel, great water pressure in the shower, double sinks in the bathroom area (with plenty of counter area and storage space underneath), an iron and an ironing board, a safe, a mini fridge, a coffee maker (that used pods), a large TV, a ceiling fan, a table with two chairs, two large windows with lovely views of the resort from one window and in the distance from the other window (so we were somewhat able to see fireworks at Epcot every night). There were a few other amenities, as well, which helped us feel like we were in a home away from home. There was even a Bible in the dresser!”

“Wonderful resort! Heavenly beds are super comfortable, and location is perfect as you're just beside the Boardwalk. Fantastic waterfall pools as well. If you're planning Disney Park visits, you are also on the Deluxe level which means extra magic hours in the evening!”

“Wonderful stay - it's so easy to travel disney and get early entry from this resort. The breakfast was amazing and all the staff were very kind. Its a great asset to Hilton, my home away from home.....”

“We've stayed here twice in two years, and we will be returning, as using this as our Orlando base if we do not stay inside of the Disney bubble or have a boutique hotel in mind for the Orlando area. The rooms have always been up to our standards. The service is fine if they're not busy. And their location is good walking distance to Disney springs security checkpoint and their swimming pool is very nice. We have only stayed a few days at a time at most and have not partaken in all of the amenities this place offers, but the ones that we have used we have not had a problem with. The last time we stayed there was a book convention so there was a bunch of weirdly dressed nerds walking around and it was amazing. Our biggest negative was that some of the restaurants aren't open on certain slow nights and if you need food you're forced to eat from the Starbucks Cold Case which is very overpriced. That was poor planning on our part so we weren't too annoyed that we couldn't get any decent grub.”

“A very nice hotel within walking distance to Epcot and Hollywood Studio. The room rates are generally high, and they charge for self-parking while it's free at other Disney World Resort properties.”
