Have never stayed in one of the Epcot resorts before. Have no idea how to "get there."
Thanks.

Ask for directions when you pick up your rental car. They have cards with directions to all the Disney hotels.

Take the south exit out of the airport. Exit to 417 South (Florida Greenway). Go through 2 toll plazas ($1 each), get off at exit 6 - International Drive and Downtown Disney. Go straight until you pass under the WDW Archway. Take the second exit - Epcot resorts. You will be on Buena Vista Drive. You go a couple miles and you will see a sign for the Swan/Dolphin right turn. It will the next light after the MGM entrance.

From the Swan/Dolphin website, which looks much like what Debbie said:
*From the airport, take the South exit.
*After 4.2 miles, the 417 South (Central Florida Greenway) exit appears on the right (this is a toll road which will cost a total of $2.00)
*You will stay on the Central Florida Greenway (417) for 18.2 miles.
*There are two exits: the "Epcot Center/Disney Village" exit (#6) and the "Magic Kingdom/Disney-MGM Studios" exit (#3). Take exit #3 (which is called Osceola Parkway).
*At the bottom of the exit ramp, turn right (West). Continue on this road and you will soon see the Walt Disney World signage.
*Stay in the right lane and look for the exit marked "Disney-MGM, Epcot Resort Area, etc". Exit to the right.
*You should now see the "Earful Tower" (water tower with Mickey ears) on your right.
*Immedately after on the right is an exit marked "Disney-MGM, Epcot Resort Area, Magic Kingdom, Disney Village". Take this exit and immediately get in the left lane (you are now on Lake Buena Vista Drive).
*At the first light, take a left (you are now on Epcot Resorts Boulevard).
*The first right takes you to the entrance of the Walt Disney World Swan. Continue straight ahead to the front of the hotel.
*The second right off of Epcot Resorts Boulevard takes you to the entrance of the Walt Disney World Dolphin.
However you get there, have a wonderful time!!

You'll get there with no problem. The directions are very easy to follow. We took the same route in November.
