Review Suite/Condo rec for 6 of us

[momof2zs]

Hi, I am looking for a condo type place for 6 of us- I have 4 little kids. We would like something with 3 bedrooms and a full kitchen. Last time we stayed at the Lake Buena Vista Resort and Spa- inexpensive but I had a few safety issues that make me want to look somewhere else- anyone else have a recommendation? I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks!

Darn, after I read your title, I was going to suggest looking into the place you stayed last time. It looks nice and new, with big condos. Never stayed there myself.

I'm only familiar with Marriotts (my DH travels a lot so he stays in them a lot). We stayed at the Grande Vista in March, and they have a few 3 bedroom units I think. They are right by Sea World, so not the most convenient to Disney parks, though.

Imperial Palms is 3 bedroom units at the Marriott World Center - there is also Royal Palms and Sabal Palms (2 bedroom units) there. I don't know the cost, but we can sometimes find "getaways" through Interval International (that's how we got Grande Vista for less than $500 for the week). If you have any friends that own a timeshare that is with II, they can check for getaways for you, and book it in your name for an extra $49.

Thanks for your suggestions, I will look into them. I really liked the Lake Buena Vista Resort- and it was quite inexpensive. However, there were some safety issues- the balcony door didn't have a lock, the front door loor was broken, there was a glass table in the room with a HUGE crack in the middle and I had to call 10 times for them remove it, etc. Little things like that add up with 4 little ones!

Check out Terra Verde Resort. They have 3 and 4 bedroom Townhomes (as well as single family homes), gated entry, and less than 10 minutes to WDW.
