Okw

We are staying there and was wondering if it had a zero entry pool? And how long does it take to get places from this resort? Thanks!

No, the pools are not zero entry at OKW. Depending upon which bus stop you are near, EPCOT will be 10 to 25 minutes after you board the bus, the same for MGM.

AK and MK will be about 10 minutes longer.

There are 5 internal bus stops at OKW. In order they are: Peninsular Road, South Point, Turtle Pond, Millers Road and Hospitality House. So if you board at Peninsular Road, you have 4 internal stops before you leave the resort, but you are the first stop when you return from the parks

I was told once by a bus driver, that once they leave OKW, it takes 8 minutes for them to drop you at MK.

member services told me it would take an hour! I was trying to plan reservations and such.

Well allowing an hour isn't a bad idea...because you may have just missed the bus at the bus stop and have to wait for another...plus you have to allow time to enter the park and get to the restaurant.

Two weeks ago, we stayed at OKW. We got on the buses at the Peninsular stop (1st stop) and it consistently took approx 15 minutes for the bus to leave from OKW (which was nice to know in case we just missed our bus, we could walk up to HH).

From the time we left OKW, it took 10 - 12 minutes to get to MK, and about the same to Epcot and MGM. It took about 20 minutes to get to AK.

FWIW, many of the buses now have clocks onboard - digital displays mounted behind the driver.

Just our experience. YMMV (or YTMV - your time may vary).
