Great place to stay
Susan F (Carlton, NSW) on Jun 23, 2025
What a lovely place to stay. Close to a supermarket, restaurants and shops. Not far from tour pick up point. The unit is very much like an apartment. Towels were changed every second day, but coffee (dripfilter) was not replenished - we brought some filterpapers and coffee from the supermarket. The kitchen was well appointed, and while there is a dishwasher, sink detergent was provided but there was no plug or tea towel (let front office know as we were leaving) Not being familiar with the chain, our agent booked this - take care: there are multiple Sonestas in Orlando
Clean, Comfortable, and Wonderfully Located

We had a great stay at Sonesta ES Suites Orlando – Lake Buena Vista. The hotel is quiet, clean, and well-maintained, offering excellent air conditioning and a range of amenities, including a laundry room. Our suite had everything we needed—a full kitchen, two TVs (one in the bedroom, one in the living area), and plenty of space to relax. While our ice maker wasn’t working, reception staff happily provided large bags of ice whenever we asked—they truly couldn’t do enough for us and take pride in their hotel. Parking is plentiful, though it may be an added cost. One of the best things about the hotel is its unbeatable location—Disney Springs, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios were just a $10 Uber / Lyft away, with the other Disney parks around a 20-minute drive. Even Cape Canaveral was an easy 90-minute trip, and we were lucky enough to catch a SpaceX launch. Overall, a comfortable, convenient, and guest-focused place to stay. We would certainly use it again in future.
Really good stay

I stayed with my husband & teenage daughter for 2 weeks over Easter holidays. Was a little concerned having read recent reviews which mentioned building works but luckily that was all finished by the time we arrived, just little bits of painting still going on which did not impact our stay. Room was absolutely fine for our needs, we didn't cook but kitchen had all the essentials. All areas of the hotel were well maintained, pool area was nice with towels provided. Really good laundry room, small gym, little shop for essentials & a starbucks open in the mornings. We only used this once as preferred to take a morning walk over the road to the Wawa who do good coffee or a little further was another starbucks. Great location, lots of places to eat within a very short walking distance plus a couple of places for just a drink, plenty of supermarkets, area seemed very safe to walk around, including at night. Close to Disney and short, easy drive to Universal. We travelled with Tui so our parking fee was included, which is a bonus. Didn't have a huge amount of contact with stay but those we did speak to were pleasant & helpful
Perfect hotel ticks all the boxes

The 2 bedroom suite was perfect for our family. Modern, clean, practical and quiet at night. Service at reception was always quick, friendly and efficient. Great location for Disney, Disney Springs and an array shops and restaurants on the doorstep. The pool area was clean and we enjoyed our down days there.
Perfect for Disney & Universal

I stayed with my husband over Easter in April this year. We were looking for a hotel that was close to both Disney & Universal. This is not our usual trip format or type of hotel, so expectations were low. We were more concerned with location > amenities. However, we were very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It ticked every box we had and more. It's in a great location (5 mins to Disney Springs, 15 minutes to Disney, 20 to Universal and 25 to the airport). The suites are spacious and comfy and have everything you'd need to cook / prepare your own food. The beds are comfy and there is shampoo etc provided. Added bonus of the hairdryer being very good too. Lots of room in the wardrobe and a safe for good measure. We didn't use the oven but there were plenty of plates/bowls/cups etc. We had parking included in our trip package, so I can't comment on the price of parking. However there were ample car parking spaces available during the day. The staff were super friendly and we also found time to use the pool. Again, we really didn't expect much - however the pool was clean and warm with towels provided. We would definitely stay here again when we next come to Orlando. Perfect location and really comfortable stay. Thank You!
