Wyndham Lake Buena Vista- DTD

[katie111]

Has anyone stayed at this hotel recently? I just found a really good deal for a last minute trip and was just wondering if anyone had any recent opinions on it. It has some mixed reviews on TA but the pool area looks like the best in the DTD area for the kids.

I am looking at this hotel as well. Anyone have advice?

I spent a week there last year - needs some upgrading but clean, comfortable beds, pleasant staff. Parking is tight - and last year, there was a AAA promotion that waived the resort fee so you might want to check into that.

We stayed there in August for 3 nights. The location is great...a short walk to DTD and the pool area is really great with a waterfall, kid's play area and poolside bar/restaurant. We stayed in a room in the garden wing which was fine for a couple nights but I wouldn't have liked for more than that. I'm not sure when the rooms were last renovated but they are old and seemed small and dark to me. Apparently the tower rooms are nicer so if I was staying there again I would ask for one of those.

Family is staying there in two weeks. I called and spoke to the Hotel Manager's Assistant and the Director of Front Desk Operations because we had several concerns. I'll say this for the staff. They bent over backwards to solve our problems and far exceeded my expectations!

I was assured that the pictures on the web site are old and not what you're getting (thank goodness - the original interior decorator had to have been color blind!)

Wyndham took over the hotel less than a year ago and they've been making improvements as fast as they can. The windows were redone (a big concern of mine going down in hurricane season), The hideous fire engine red bedspreads are gone. they are working on the portico and outside entrance right now.

Given how helpful they were to me today, I'm looking forward to this vacation.
I'll take pictures and post them when we get back.
