Most upscale but still convenient condo resort nearby?

[Gentry2004]

I was going to splurge on a deluxe hotel for my DD's graduation trip next summer (and I still may do that) but it's becoming quite clear that our family of four really could just use more space. Teen DDs and husband are constantly bickering over the bathroom and my kids also prefer not having to share a bed. So a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom with pullout is great. But I'd still like the resort to feel upscale, have modern finishes, great pool, etc. and not be too far from the parks. We don't care about a shuttle as we will rent a car.

What option do you think is the most upscale? Thanks in advance.

A really nice surprise would be EPIC at Universal .
Check out LoewsHotels.com

A recent new addition to the 'upscale' hotel scene nearby is the Evermore resort: https://evermoreresort.com/

The Evermore side of the resort has a wide variety of accommodation types - standalone homes, flats, etc. It's a pretty interesting and unique property/concept with a massive lagoon/pool and all sorts of activities.

There is also a Conrad hotel on the Evermore site, although the larger rooms there are more their top end suites and pretty pricey.

We've occasionally booked two rooms at the Four Seasons to create a connecting 2BR, but that can also be very up there price wise, depending on your budget.

Cheaper options would be any cash availability for a larger DVC/villa room at any of the deluxes on property. I like the 2BRs at BLT, personally.

A more budget friendly option is Whyndham Bonnet Creek.

Otherwise arrive 2 bedroom DVC unit, or 2 bedroom hotel suite, at a Disney deluxe.

Only 4 people 2 hotel rooms would also work. Club level at Contemporary or GF would fill the bill.

No question resorts like that 4 Seasons are very upscale but aren't budget friendly.
