Just a quick post now that we are back from 7 nights/8 days at the Dolphin. It was just my daughter and I staying with another mother and her daughters and we were in a suite (didn't take pictures but the rooms were exactly like the ones posted a few pages ago by Mike, except we did not have a walk in closet. The suite part of the room was HUGE. Everything was clean and functioning and the only so called problem I can think of is the water in the shower is extremely hot and it's difficult to get it cooler without turning it off. The other not so great thing about our rooms (5126 and 28, west wing) was the view. Or lack thereof - it was the roof of a lower part of the building and some angles in the decor of the exterior. A nice view would have been nice but it was no big deal to us, we all just laughed at it. If you want a suite with a view, make sure you don't get those rooms.
Other observations and opinions:
It's a gorgeous hotel, the staff is friendly and helpful and we loved, loved, loved the epcot resort area location
The pool is beautiful and well maintained. It was crowded as we were there over the 4th but we always found loungers on the beach when we wanted them. Even though there were many people in the pool, it's so large that it never felt like people were right on top of you when you swam.
I wasn't overly impressed with Picabu but we only ate out of there twice. Too many choices in Disney to just eat at the food court.
The resort is confusing but we finally figured it all out with no mistakes by our last day
There are just a variety of ways to get to the same place and we almost always started out going the l o n g way.
Bus transportation was hit or miss but again, it was a busy holiday week. At one point we had 3 DTD buses come in less than 8 minutes while the entire crowd was waiting for an MK bus. When that 3rd DTD bus opened it's doors I hopped on and asked the bus driver to let someone know the situation and we had an MK bus in the next 5-7 minutes. With the Dolphin buses you never knew if you'd go directly to your destination, stop at one more resort or 3. That was very confusing and sometimes very, very crowded when they'd stop at another resort when we were already standing room only.
All in all we really enjoyed our stay. That being said, I'm not sure we'd choose to stay again only because it just didn't feel 100% Disney to us. I can't know if that's because of some subconscious thing in my mind KNOWING that it's not all Disney or if the Magic really isn't completely there. I know that for whatever reason as soon as my feet hit the Boardwalk or a bus, I felt DISNEYFIED and as soon as we got back to the Dolphin a little something was missing
It could very well be psychological.
Fellow teacher here! 
It works for us, and we LOVE PM EMH! Be sure you take 2 outfits per day because when you get back for your afternoon rest, you are going to be soaked from sweat and will want to definitely shower and change and never look at those super yucky clothes again
