Fantastic Location and Highly Recommended

LL31 (Bournemouth) on Dec 26, 2025

Stayed for 2 nights for a whistle stop visit of WDW. Excellent location- approx 10 minutes walk around the Boardwalk to EPCOT. Whilst Dolphin & Swan Resort buses weee available to the parks and Disney Springs, we used the Disney buses which were available from the Yacht Club (turn left out of the back of the hotel and 5 minutes walk) as they can go right to the park entrances. This was especially important for Magic Kingdom as leaving after the party at midnight, we didn’t have to go to the TTC and could get back to the hotel quickly after a long day. The hotel was clean, staff very helpful and there was a quick service eatery to purchase food & drink - there were other restaurants and bars available however due to time restrictions, we didn’t have an opportunity to try these. We also took an Uber to the Walmart in Kissimmee to purchase some bits and pieces to take back to the UK - this was 15 minutes drive and cost $11. Transfer to MCO was 25 minutes. Would highly recommend for location and standard of accommodation- thank you.
