I'm not Buzz, but I'm a Vistana owner (at the main Vistana not the Villages).Are the Sheraton shuttles that easy ? can you see fireworks from any? Bummer about the pools I assume none have slides?
Yep, when you mapquest them out, they're about 3 miles from eachother. A friend of mine stayed at the VV a couple years ago. And even though they are fairly close to the main Vistana, I think there is more traffic in the area of the VV. My friend told me it took them about 25 min to get to WDW----and it usually takes us in the area of 10-15 min from the main Vistana.I didn't know that they were that close together, SVR and Villages..
We only visited US and IOA while at Vistana. We had a rental car so we didn't use the shuttles. Vistana is a huge resort. Our stay was fine but I'd rather be onsite any day of the week. As you mentioned, for the convienence. That's just my preference. I love CSR! But if you are looking to save the $1,000, try the family suites at All Stars.jcpuppy.com said:I booked my reservations at CRS for 8 nights for 2 rooms..we have 5 people and don;'t want to be crammed together. i saw the 2 Sheratons on all ears and it would save us over $1000. is CRS worth $1000 more than the Sheraton?
We like the Disney resorts for convienence..don't want to have to drive or think much.

I'm torn with onsite vs offsite. You do get the perks of EMH, disney transportation, package delivery when staying onsite (and all this is great), but if having extra room, a full kitchen, balcony, washer&dryer, jacuzzi/whirlpool tub on your vacation sounds good you may want to weigh the pros and cons. We bought DVC so we could have the best of both worlds---onsite magic & perks and lots of space & amenities at our finger tips. Good luck with your decision.Our stay was fine but I'd rather be onsite any day of the week. As you mentioned, for the convienence. That's just my preference.
