Best Resorts?

[star72232]

Other than WBC and SVR, what are the other best options near Disney? I need at least 2BR (although 3 would be awesome).

Marriott Palms resorts (3) are right beside Vistana Resort.
The Hilton Grand Vacation Club Resorts 2 of 3 are fairly close to Disney property, the SeaWorld location is a bit further out.
Orange Lake Resort is very large and popular, but reviews seem to be slipping since Holiday Inn took over management.
Silver Lake Resort is small and right beside AK, easy access to the parks.

There are hundreds more, but these get the most mention for timeshare resorts near to Disney.

Wow, there are so many, can't name them all. We've stayed in at least 7 or 8 different places.

Our favorites are Windsor Hills and Villas at Seven Dwarfs Lane.

We love Orange Lake. We are there in Dec and March. Yes they did have issues last xmas with housekeeping. The manager went to train at one of their newly acquired site for 6 months. They had too bring her back early as the manager in acting wasnt doing as well. All seems ok as of my last visit.
You can get 2 or 3 bdrms at Orange Lake. Any questions PM me.

I like Windsor Hills. It's not a timeshare though...it's a vacation home community with each unit owned by an vacation home owner. Many choose to rent out their units while they are not there. They have private vacation homes, townhomes (3 bedrooms with a small private plunge pool) and 2-3 bedroom condos. There is a big resort pool available to all guests. It's about 5 min from Animal Kingdom Lodge. Your experience may vary based on who you rent from and how they maintain their unit.

Vacation VIllas at Parkway are bit further (depends upon which route you take) - but they are generally easier to get.

It's a bit pricey, but the Grand Cypress complex is wonderful, especially the pool.

Silver Lakes Resort: clean rooms, easy access to AK as well as shopping/restaurants on Hwy 192.
