Looking For a Offsite Disney Hotel

[DisneyCouple1973]

My wife and I are getting back into Disney. We used to just get an on-property hotel...but now looking for an offsite one. Can anyone recommend particular offsite hotels?

Towneplace suites and residence inn at Flamingo Crossings are both very nice. We’ve stayed in both and prefer the Residence Inn but both are clean, comfortable, and reasonable.

Will you have a car OR are you depending on hotel shuttles?

What is your budget?

What level, moderate or deluxe type?

Are you looking at upgraded amenities (upgraded pools) or included breakfast?

What is your budget? Low As Possible I would Say Between 150-250 per night

What level, moderate or deluxe type? Any level

Are you looking at upgraded amenities (upgraded pools) or included breakfast? we are disney adults and we are passholders we are looking to go monthly so we are not looking for anything fancy

There's so many possibilities, I've been to four hotels near there, my favorite so far is Marriott Cypress Harbor Villas:

Our favorites are Gaylord palms and the Orlando world center marriot. These two have some of the best resort pools in Orlando, add in all of the other resort amenities they offer and you won’t miss staying onsite other than the proximity some of the deluxe Disney hotels can offer (which is still not worth it imo)

I like the Drury Hotel by Disney Springs. Very Clean , free breakfast and evening snacks and drinks. MouseSavers has a promo code that gets you 15 % best rates and $15 parking instead of $25. Unfortunately most of the offsite hotels charge parking fees and then you are going to pay again at the parks for parking unless you have an AP.

Also passholders that are park centric ..

We have spent many nights at Embassy Suites LBV SOUTH! This is less touristy, has the great breakfast buffet and evening reception. The restaurant is nice and while the pool area is smaller, there are rarely people there and been nice for a quick dip in the evening. It seems far but it is very fast to parks and on property. No resort fee, has parking fee.

If only doing Disney I'd look at Flamingo Crossing. Location is great for Disney but not much else. Homewood Suites would be my pick but have stayed at Home2Suites, they share a pool area. Enough quick food in the area too if done with park food.

If I could get Disney Springs Drury in budget I'd go there. As pp explained you get way more than the other Disney Springs hotels, some Disney perks and everything is fairly new. Walking distance DS would be a plus if you eery go there.

I've stayed at bunches of Hiltons; Hampton Inn, Homewood, Home2Suites, Garden Inn, Embassy Suites mostly in the Palm Parkway area, sometimes farther away. I shop for price (and build points). Always get a clean room as we just sleep & shower. Lately I've been staying at Marriott World Center in villas or Disney.

Thank you guys for all the info looking at the reccomendation i think Drury would fit us and out budget

You may need to supplement Drury bus service with ride share. Driving to the parks requires paying to park in the theme parks. The parking fee will wipe out much of the cost savings.

Edited to add Drury bus times look doable

we are disney passholder and my wife is handicapped so we get free standered parking in the medical section

I see the Drury busses w/ logo all the time but verify upon check in ,
A reservation is not required …I remember the Hilton across from Disney Springs did this one year but not updated with current requirements .
I would not want you to be disappointed early morn
Also keep forgetting I want to stay here for their hot dogs included at the buffets or the evening reception .
Imagine bringing your roasted marshmallow campfire stick to “grill” that hot dog.
I have seen that at the ChipnDale evening fun at the Fort Wilderness Lodge .
Haha
Have a great trip and keep us updated !

The Drury in Disney Springs buses run all day & night no reservations needed they give you a sheet with pick up times for each park plus Disney Springs.
We stay here sometimes, and I find the service very convenient very similar to Disney's Shuttles. We love the free breakfast and kick back at 5:30 with evening snacks (but the buffet set up had chicken fingers mash potatoes, hot dogs, taco *& all the fixings you could make a meal out of it). Plus 3 free Adut beverages.
