Ive only visited and there is not much difference between the two..both modern with a touch of asian flair is what I got out of them..both grand in size and right across from each other...same colors same kind of pool same boat access and I believe they both are same price and have comfy beds...

Hi,

This question gets asked every so often. Here are a couple of recent threads:

We prefer the Dolphin for these reasons: Picabu's and the laundry room are right on the premises. I've never stayed at the Swan and we would stay there if the Dolphin wasn't available but we just prefer the Dolphin.

Swan has queen beds
Dophin had full/double beds

Swan:

1. In my experience the bus stops at the Swan first.
2. Better chance at a shorter walk back to the room at the end of a long day at the parks.

All of the above and the Dolphin is a bit closer to the pools. Also Swan is all non smoking, Dolphin has both.

The Swan lobby is very quiet and the lobby of the Dolphin is very noisey. Both have the Heavenly Beds which is an understatement. The Swan has Queen size and the Dolphin Full size which was an issue for my family. We loved the Swan and you have access to the same amenities. The Swan has an awesome coffee bar in the morning for coffees, tea, fruit, and pastries. The walk between the two is minimal compared to all the other wlaking you can expect. If you get a discount, either is a wonderful resort.

We have stayed at both and prefer the Swan although for the life of me I dont know why. The walk seemed shorter and the lobby was not nearly as packed with conventioners....the rooms were the same and the beds were great!

I have stayed at both and would not stay at the Dolphin again. We wound up with one of those extremely damp musty rooms. It was a one nt stay so we kept it but there were a few other things that did not impress me at all about the Dolphin.

The Swan has queen beds (HATE doubles at teh Dolphin) and the rooms have very recently been redone. I have had service issues at both, but for the great rate I can deal.
