What to bring to Vistana Resort

[Anna'sMuM]

Hopefully those of you who have stayed here before will be able to help me out. We will not be eating many meals in the aprtment but wondered what they provided. For example do we need to bring dishwashing liquid, bath soap,etc what do you usually find provided. Thanks a lot for your help.

We were there this past April and if memory serves me right we had a travel size dishwashing liquid and a starter pack of dishwasher cascade tablets. There was also soap in all the bathrooms. We had to bring out own shampoo's and laundry detergents. There may've been a coffee packet too but I brought our own so we didn't use it. Have a great trip.

Yes we were just there and no shampoo or laundry detergent. I think there was only maybe 1 or 2 packs of coffee too..

MARIA, if you read this, we ended up in Cascades in a really nice spot. I think I bugged Ada ? the Diamond Lane lady enough that she made sure we were set. We were in 2175 which is the top floor which had the high ceiling with skylight and our view was the small lake and basketball courts that are behind the general store..not bad at all!

You have most of your questions answered, but I wanted to add that if you are going to be eating there at all you might want to consider bringing napkins. They do provide paper towels but we like paper napkins. Also bring ziploc bags. Of course, ziplocs are a must for me on any vacation!

Hi Diane ~
So glad to hear you got a nice villa and location ! Glad it worked it.

To the OP.....here's a list of what is stocked in the villas (I took photos of the lists which are inside the kitchen cabinet doors so the clarity might not be the best). Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Good advice Julie. We also bring along a couple extra tall kitchen bags. We use one for our dirty laundry bag, and then towards the end of the trip after I've washed all the clothes, I use that same bag for all our trash before we check out. They do provide 1-2 trash bags, but we usually go through them.

Thanks everyone for all your help. I am getting really excited now it is just about 1 month to go We received our Disney tickets in the post yesterday so now all we have to do is get there!

One thing Ana'sMum--seeing that you are coming from the UK. They do have a nice little store onsite as well as a nearby Publix. Might be easier to do a quick shop than pack off of those items to cart them so far!

and also a super Walmart right down the street. If you exit the Vistana via the main road (on to SR 535), make a RIGHT on to 535. Go down a couple traffic lights and it'll be on your right in a shopping center.
