Marriott timeshare and Disney vacation

[uandmfan]

Hi

We are looking at staying in a 2 bedroom Marriott timeshare in February. There will be 3 adults and 2 small kids. We will be there a week with 6 park days so we will spend the majority of time at the parks. So I'm not too concerned with amenities as we won't be there much and it's probably too cold to swim outside anyway.

We've stayed at the imperial palms and loved it. We will be spending most of our time at the MK. Is there one that's a lot closer or are they all about the same? Anyone have any specific recommendations ?

Thanks!!

We loved Cypress Harbor - however, the second bedroom had a queen and a pull out sofa in it. Harbour Lake had 2 queens in the second bedroom - their big draw was their pools, though so not sure if you'd be interested. Both are very convenient on / off for the highway, so it only took maybe 20 minutes door to door for most parks.

I don't think you can get much closer than the Palms (Imperial/Sabal/Royal). It's got to be less than a mile to the Disney arch from the entrance of the resort. Traffic flows well on World/Epcot Center Drive so it's easier access than some onsite resorts.

I agree the Palms resorts are closest. The entrance is on Epcot Center Drive.

We've stayed at Sabal Palms a few times and I have their local attractions sheet from check in.
Distances are:
Epcot 4.7 miles
HS 5 miles
MK 5.7 miles
AK 7.4 miles
Blizzard Beach 5.8 miles
Typhoon lagoon 3.2 miles
Disney Springs 5.9 miles

It only takes a few minutes of driving to get anywhere on Disney property.

Thanks everyone. We will try for one of the royal resorts!
