We booked this hotel for next month. Looks nice, and it's well-reviewed on Mousesavers.com. Anyone else have experiences, good or bad? We can switch if we have to (was thinking about bidding for a Resort on Priceline, i.e. Hilton or Wyndham, probably available for around that price).

Was curious about pool, waterslide etc. as my kids love to swim.
 
We stayed there in Sept. It was fine. DH liked it, and that says a lot. LOL The rooms are your regular Radisson rooms. Nicely appointed, but not luxury rooms. They do have a keyboard by the tv for internet access that is about $10 a day. (noon to noon) The room was a deep yellow, almost gold, and marroon, but it wasn't gaudy. The windows reach floor to ceiling, but do not open. The beds were comfortable. Now, I was really expecting more from the bathroom since it was "hyped" as having italian tile in it. I was not impressed, though. It is a rather smallish, Radisson standard, bathroom. There is a large vanity with mirror, the standard (and nice to have) makeup mirror mounted on the wall, toilet and bathtub w/shower. Yes, there was italian tile, but it wasn't spectacular. There is also shampoo, conditioner and lotion provided. The only complaint that I had was the elevator. It was soooo slooooowwwww. ;)

There are 2 pools, one being a little larger than the other. The bigger one starts at 3' and goes to 6'. Over half of that pool is 3', so the kids have a large area to use. There is a waterfall past the 6' area. The slide was closed for repaires when we were there, so I don't know how long it really was. It looked nice, though. The other pool doesn't really have any landscaping, but it was similar in shape to the other pool. I don't know how deep it was, though, sorry. Now, what you HAVE to check out is the hot tub!!!! It is on the other side of the second pool and is wonderful!! There is a rock formation that makes a waterfall along half of the back of the tub. Be forwarned, it is HOT. It also sits right next to one of the foot paths. I thought it was a weird place to put it, right out in the open, but we never had anyone walk by when we were in it.

The desk was VERY nice and helpful. They seemed to be a little frazzled, but they didn't mess anything up. There is a Pizza Hut in the diner. We got a medium supreme pizza for $12.95. That is the cheapest I have ever gotten pizza hut pizza and it was one of the best.
 
I stayed there in June 2002. It rained everyday but the pool was beautiful and the staff was friendly. It was me and my best friend and we used the resort bus to get to the parks and tennis courts were nice. The food was not so good in the cafe in the court. But we only had cheeseburgers. I recommend this resort. WE got a really good deal. Be careful if you order movies though because you can easily change the channel and lose your money because they won't refund you if you accidentally change the channel. LOL... just letting you know, but overallt he place was beautiful and i would stay there again definately. any questions email me @ Aliciamay22@cox.net
 
When I was there, I noticed that they had a shuttle to the Premier Outlet Mall. I did not use it, so I don't know the details. THere was a flyer on the bulleton board by the pool, I think. Just ask at the desk if you can not find it on the way to your room. The Premier Outlet Mall houses dozens of stores. Two of them being the Disney Outlet and the USF outlet. Great Prices!!!
