Ate here in April 2018 for lunch with my husband and parents on one of the first days of our 8 day trip. We sat at the bar and shared two orders of Ahi Tuna nachos and two orders of chicken lo mein. We had several rounds of the Pink Himalayan cocktails (gin, red grapefruit juice, passionfruit, lemon grass) which were one of the week favorites. In fact, everyone loved the atmosphere, drinks, food and bartenders so much, we had dinner here on one of our last nights. This time we shared two orders of the Korean BBQ ribs (which my dad is still talking about) and more lo mein. Absolutely fabulous.

Hawaii feel in the heart of Orlando. This resort is great. Feels like a vacation within a vacation. And they have Dole Whip and some of the best drinks in all of WDW at the bars here. Good choice of food as well. View of fireworks on the beach at night.
Pros:
So many things. Pools. Beaches. Smores at night. Feel of the main building!Cons:

They should have left Fulton’s alone. The decor here now is very underwhelming, the service sketchy and the food is overpriced. We watched as a woman waited for a $200 gift certificate she wanted to purchase. She waited so long she finally left. There’s no excuse for that type of service.

Nice resort for adults. Good pool. Good Bar. The remodeled rooms are great. The layout is big, so can be a lot of walking to get around. We rent a car so not bad for us.
Pros:
The large pool is great to relax by. Feels amazing after a day in the parks.Cons:
large resort. Current construction is bothersome.Review of Contemporary Resort (Deluxe Resort)

We stayed here for a week in April 2018 in the A tower. Had a lake pool view out the back sliding door/balcony, a view of Chef Mickey's out the front door. We all thought it was the most magical place we've ever stayed. We were on floor 5 - had a pretty good bird's eye view of Chef Mickey's but never heard any noise from inside our room. And every morning before setting off to the parks, we all had to pause and watch the kids below dancing and interacting with the characters. *LOVE* Loved also being able to walk into Magic Kingdom. Loved walking past Space Mountain every morning. Loved eating at and watching the Magic Kingdom fireworks from the California Grill (fabulous, BTW). Beds were very comfortable, the room itself was roomy, staff were friendly and efficient. This resort is on the expensive side, we certainly won't be able to stay here every visit to WDW - but we would choose this resort every time if we could afford it. Oh, and the lobby smells so good. Highly recommend.
Pros:

We ate a late late dinner here, more of a snack. It probably would have been better had we not been rushing out of the park eating a last piece of pizza and breadsticks available.

The food was your typical amusement park food, chicken tenders and burgers. What we got that made our lunch was the show we happened upon. We did not realize this was a show until we were seated and it started. What a wonderful surprise, to bump up our food experience!

We stayed in a two bedroom villa in the Paddock section. This is a lovely resort with beautiful grounds. The décor in our room was dated and the carpet a bit worn, but there was really nothing wrong with it at all. We were close to the Paddock pool which we really enjoyed. There was a bus stop right in front of our building, and we had excellent bus service when we needed it. We did have a vehicle, and it was great to be able to park right by the resort. The only drawback to this resort is that it is huge. We had chosen to stay here for the first half of the trip to take advantage of the restaurants at Disney Springs, and although we did walk there every night it was a very long walk from our room. We were also quite far away from the main building and only stopped there once when driving back from the parks.
Pros:
beautiful resort close to Disney SpringsCons:
very large and spread out dated decorReview of Candy Cane Inn

We stayed here as a family of 4, perfect location! Same side of the street as Disneyland and California Adventure. You can actually see the backside of CarsLand from the parking lot of the hotel. About 1/2 mile walk to the entrance. Wonderful selection of a continental breakfast, we ate here every morning.
