Best Condo ?

[chanty]

Hi there,

Considering staying off-site for the first-time.
We are looking for a 2 bedroom condo, close to the parks but don't mind paying cheaper and having a 5-10 min more to drive.
We want pools, hot tub, nice area, close to highways if possible.

Any advice? I know a lot of were talking about Windor Palms/Windsor Hills but I'd like something a bit cheaper...

Thanks everyone!!

Thanks Spicey!
I should also mention that we would rather look at condos since we are thinking of possibly buying as well.

We just got back on Thursday after a week in Orlando. This trip was a non-Disney trip for us (except for a day in the waterpark - Blizzard Beach). We stayed at the Bahama Bay Resort - LOVED IT! It's about 15 minutes from World Drive entrance to WDW; yet it felt like you were miles away with how nice and quiet and relaxing it was. We booked through Travelocity and got a great rate. They have 5 pools and 4 hot tubs - 2 pools are heated and one has a white sand beach area next to it. Bahama Bay also has 2 restaurants and many natural areas that have walking trails.

All in all - we plan on going back for our non-Disney trips to FL. Can't say enough nice things about it.

Depending where you want to be, I would recommend Vista Cay. I haven't actually stayed there but been to look at the community many times and it is very nice and growing fast. It's about 5 minutes to Universal and Seaworld and about 15 minutes to Disney World. I have seen many people say they loved it when they stayed there. I don't know how the prices are there though.
