Roll in vs Transfer shower

[mom-2-3]

What is the difference between a roll in and transfer shower? I’ve only ever reserved the roll in rooms. I need to assist DS with showering so need hand held shower and not have to work around tub, glass doors etc. will a transfer work too?

This is a picture I found for a Contemporary Resort Garden Wing Wheelchair Accessible with Transfer Shower:


I haven't seen this category previously so I'm not sure how many resorts have this option. It looks like there is a lip or step into the shower but there is a seat and shower wand, plus a curtain. The "accessible features" mentions grab bar at toilet and in shower.
