How good is the Grand Floridian with Wheelchairs?

[yorkiegirl95]

Hey everyone!
I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrom. And i just found out that my Make-A-Wish trip wish was granted! YAY! But what scares me, is that I am in a wheelchair, and i am also going at Christmas. Will the shopes and resteraunts in the Grand Floridian and everything be ok to go in? or are they too compact? Help would be awesome

The restaurants and shops should be fine. There is a beautiful elevator in the lobby of the main building. Enjoy your trip, the GF is beautiful.

Love the GF, my group includes a manual w/c and a scooter and we haven't found any spaces too tight. beautiful hotel, on a side note 10 years age we spotted Drew Carey sitting in the lobby, he was really sweet when approached by my star struck Mom! keep your eyes open, I hear lots of celebs stay here.

It is a beautiful resort and is beautifully decorated at Christmas. They actually have a gingerbread house in the lobby.
The resort is very spacious and you will have no problem getting around in a wheelchair.
