This is my go to for a healthy meal at magic kingdom. I love getting the salmon with fresh veggies. If you don't want a starch, you can get double veggies instead. This place can get busy so use mobile ordering and there is seating upstairs. Also, there is a roped off section for guests with wheelchairs/scooters.
Pros:
Healthy food optionsCons:

I've gone to this restaurant so many times I've lost count. I have so many favorites! The fried green tomatoes, the deviled eggs, the KC greens. You can get a full meal or just put together a few appetizers and sides to make a meal. Either way you won't go wrong.
Pros:
Great food and serviceCons:

Dessert at Disney Springs is always Amorette's for me. The desserts always taste amazing and they are beautiful. The Mickey Mousse is my favorite non cake dessert and I love their petit cakes.
Pros:
High quality desertsCons:

LOVED this resort! We had a Studio room in the Pumbaa section with a Savanna view. We saw animals all the time. The staff was amazing and loved that the bus rides didn't take to long no matter where you went. We rented DVC points and can't wait to go again. Pool was amazing and they provided the children with life vest so if you travel from far away you don't have to pack anything other than your bathing suits.
Pros:
Staff are amazing. Views of the animals is like nothing you will experience anywhere else. Best swimming pool for adults and children.Cons:

Stayed using DVC pts. Home resort is Poly but wanted to be close for F & W. Stayed studio over Labor Day weekend 4 days. Requested closest to lobby. Upon checkin requested extra pillows & egg crate for pull out sofa. We request this at each resort we stay at as the pullout is just to hard. Never received notice room was ready and we were doing the after hours event at MK that night so didnt get back to room until 1 am. Pillows were there but no egg crate. Called front desk they said it was delivered & apologized and said they woyld send 1 up. Mousekeeping came with more pillows but no eggcrate said they dont have them. Had aweful night sleep. Next morning called again and they said will try to find one. Came back to room that night with even more pillows no eggcrate. Called again & mousekeeping brought a single eggcrate that would fit on pull down trundle. I fave up and used pillows. We liked this resort for location, options but a family of 5 with 1 bathroom will not work for us. We liked the pool but was always crowded and the hot tub didnt work. Planning on a Nov trip 2019 wiuld stay here again but would get 2 studios.
Pros:
LocationCons:
Small studios, hard pullout sofa, 1 bathroom.Review of Award Wieners

We ate dinner at Award Weiners twice during our August trip. We all had either the bacon/cheese dog or plain hot dogs. Hot dogs were good and the film cut fries were a big hit with everyone.
Pros:
Quick service, great friesCons:

I lllooovvvve this resort! The staff can't be beat. It is close to the Magic Kingdom and you can use a boat as your transportation to Magic Kingdom. Since this granny takes grandchildren to celebrate 5th birthdays at Disney World, we use the boat alot and the kids think this is awesome!
Pros:
convenient to Magic Kingdom, the design - reminds me of national park resort, fireplaceCons:

We dropped of our son for the full night on September 4th and would do it again on all future trips. My son has sensory issues and at times wears headphone to help him. The staff took them and seeing I was nervous leaving him told me he would be great and if he didn't like the sounds that they had a area for him to sit with a staff member and chill out. They gave me a business card and said call anytime to check in. We came back before the dance party to see if he wanted to leave and he said no thanks I want to stay. The staff gave us ideas of what we could do until the night ended. The only problem we had was getting back to our Disney resort when we left. We had to ride to Epcot and get a bus. Had we know ahead of time we would have chose a night with Magic Kingdom Extra Magic hours to ride a bus without traveling to another park.
Pros:
Staff goes above and beyond for the entire family to have a good night. They treat nervous parents with respect and help give ideas of what you can do if you don't have plans in place for the adults.Cons:
Lack of communication at time of reservation regarding buses not running as late as the Pixar Play Zone hours to get back to resorts without traveling to another park and transferring.Review of Fairfield Inn

My family stayed at the Fairfield in August 2018. Our room was a premium view room which was recently renovated. The room was ready upon our arrival and was nice and clean.
Being able to watch the fireworks from our floor on nice we returned early was great. The hotel is a short enough walk to the parks that we could return in the mid afternoon heat for a dip in the pool before heading back.
We would definitely stay at the Fairfield in the future.
