Bonnet Creek or Vistana Villages????

Help me decide between Bonnet Creek and Vistana Villages!

Thanks

I think the general consensus is that if you are only going to Disney, then definitely stay at Bonnet Creek. But if you are doing other Orlando sites, like Sea World or Universal, then Vistana Villages will be more centrally located for you. Bonnet Creek is truly "on-site" (as in on Disney property), where as Vistana is on International Drive. Good luck!

Bonnet Creek......brand new resort, units are beautiful, pool has a lazy river which kids love, the location cannot be beat. If you have a car and want to do SeaWorld or Universal, it still isn't far.

Vistana Villages is very nice, but Bonnet Creek would be my first choice.

Have an awesome time!

I would happily stay at either. Villages is a slightly more developed "Resort", with a restaurant on site and several other amenities that might not yet be in place at BC. But, BC has a more Disney-friendly location.

I have never been to Bonnett Creek but we love to stay at the Vistana Villages. You have two great options.

Just returned from 8 days at Bonnet Creek. I would highly recommend it. Very close to all the parks. They do offer shuttle transportation, but we drove our own vehicles (maybe 15 minutes to the fartherest - Animal Kingdom) We enjoyed the closeness to Downtown Disney and also we used the Winn Dixie Supermarket for our grocery shopping, another maybe 10 minutes away. We had 13 in our party. Two condos and we even ordered oru Thanksgiving Dinner from the condo. We had a very enjoyable time. This was our second Thanksgiving visit to Disney and Bonnet Creek.

Can you tell me about the three bedroom? Was it two doubles in bedroom #2 and #3? Is the balcony the same size as the 2 bedroom? Is the living room about the same size as the 2 bedroom? Any other things that stand out?

Thanks!
