We stayed in 301 last October and will stay in one of their properties again. Looking at November next year in a townhouse. Those were new for 2009.

I think the drive to the parks from WH is very quick. We always arrived before park open and were usually parked in the first 2 or 3 rows of parking, which ment we didn't have to take the parking tram. The walk was very short even at the end of the day. Plus this way we didn't have to fold the stroller.

Honestly unless you luck out every single time and have the exact bus you need arriving when you do at the bus stops, I think it is actually a shorter time to take your own transporation. So really to me staying offsite is usually cheaper and faster.

We drove our own car also even when staying on property. I like not having to wait for a bus at the end of a long day.

Paulagrav, I don't know about all thier homes but I do know the condo we were in had a key pad to let you in. So they emailed me the code when I paid for the condo (in March) then 2 more times right before the trip. We have a keypad on our own front door and I loved not having to keep up with a key to a room while we were there!

We will be in 304 for Thanksgiving. Did you like the look of Windsor Hills? My DH is a bit of an onsite snob and I know he will miss how beautiful the Disney resorts are. Other than that we are really excited, if nothing else to have all the space. for less than the cost of a Value resort.

We are here now in 404 the pics for this condo an maybe some of the othersis some what misleading. In pics on their website and videos they show mickey heads on cabinet doors in kitchen well this unit there are mickey heads on 2 cabinet doors only 2 cabinet doors that has knobs on them. It not a big deal yet I found it some what misleading.

There is also a few stains in the carpet here an there along with a broken toliet paper holder in the 2nd bath an the shower curtain really needs to be replaced. Nothing that would keep us from renting same condo again but aqll is not perfect.

I'll post later on my opinion over all of Windsor Hills.

We are just back from staying in unit 301, rented through that site. We really enjoyed our stay. There was lots of noise from the unit above us, but from what I gather this is fairly typical in WH. It wasn't anything that kept us up at night, but a little annoying at times. Everything was just as the pictures described. The pool was AMAZING. My 11 month old LOVED splashing in the little fountains, and my 4 year old loved the beach entry. DH and I loved the slide! Great fun for all!

I would say it took us 35 minutes to get from the WH parking lot to the front of the train station at MK. This includes some time fiddling at the car once we got there to load up the stoller, etc. We left at 8:05 for the 9am rope drop. Needless to say, we were there in plenty of time and were able to park very close.

I loved the location of WH. Close to lots of restaurants, and I didn't find 192 all that bad. The new Super Target is very handy.

thanks, beynac!
I think this makes my decision of condo vs townhouse...I'm going to go for the townhouse! I know my 3 kids can make a lot of noise, and I sure don't want to hear other people's kids to add to it
