Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort, Bonnet Creek

[longneckthree]

Hi,
Any thoughts? Looks good to me - alot less money than staying on property.
But it looks like it's not built yet but they are taking reservations for October and we are going in Nov.
TIA,
Maggie

The Wyndham Grand is the Wyndham hotel at Bonnet Creek. It is under construction -- outside's pretty much finished, inside work only left. I believe it's supposed to open later this year.

However, all six of the towers of the Wyndham Bonnet Creek timeshare resort are built, with about 1,100 rooms I believe. The hotel sits at one end of the lake, with the timeshares surrounding the rest of the lake. The whole resort is beautiful, with lots of amenities -- free minigolf, 5 pools (6 when the hotel opens) with two lazy rivers, etc, etc. And if you're driving, you can be parked at any WDW theme park in 15 minutes from Bonnet Creek. They also have a free parks (and DTD) shuttle service.

You'll find several Wyndham Bonnet Creek threads here, including a photo thread.

The other two properties at Bonnet Creek are a Hilton and a Waldorf Astoria.

Just a quick addition:

You can probably rent a WBC timeshare from an owner, or through one of the rental services, for a fraction of what a room in the hotel will cost. You'll have much more room, washer/dryer, etc AND full access to ALL of the features of the resort, including the hotel pool, restaurants, and spa.

You'll see some WBC rental threads here as well.
