Strengths: Conveniently located close to Disney parks, and an easy drive to Universal, grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Starbucks just in front of the property made it easy to caffeinate before the parks. The views are awesome as well.
Communication and checkin instructions were easy to follow. Plenty of luggage carts available to help with luggage/groceries. Parking was easy too.
We didn’t use any of the property amenities but the pool looked really nice.
Development needs: the unit was quite dusty. The main surfaces were fine, but the lamp shades, and fake plants had thick layers of dust accumulation.
In the master bedroom, the dresser needs to be anchored into the wall. It started to fall forward on me as I was loading the drawers for our stay. I was able to notice and quickly caught it along with the tv that almost fell on my head. Safety risk, especially if you have young kids. I’m not sure if the dresser in the other room was anchored, but it was lower/heavier and we didn’t have the same tipping issue.
Lastly, the floors (tile) were quite dirty and even sticky in some areas. While they looked clean, it turned my children’s feet black within 30 min.
Master tub has jets with mildew accumulation. We stuck with showers, but seeing the mildew jets was off-putting. I didn’t inspect the other bathroom’s jets.
Please note that we did not report the dust, dresser issue, tub mildew, or tile to the property manager, so they didn’t have a chance to remedy these issues during our stay. We got in late the first night and we were gone early morning until late each day. I don’t like people/strangers entering our unit while we’re away so we just let it be as it was essentially just a place to sleep.
One last thing to note is that the checkout instructions for this property require you to strip the beds.
Overall good location providing easy access to parks. Development needs can easily be addressed by management.
