Food was okay, but nothing to write home about. Service was great as our waiter kept the drinks filled. Not sure it was worth us doing the Fantasmic package as it was rainy, and there were plenty of seats to chose from at the show that night.

My favorite breakfast place on property. Food is very good and fresh. Staff is friendly and fun. We went by boat from Wilderness Lodge. The best way to get there is either by boat from Wilderness Lodge or Contemporary. If you are coming from another resort transfer to a boat via the Magic Kingdom. No matter how you are able to get there, Trails End is worth a visit!

I think I set myself up for an unbelievable meal or expectation of what I thought the experience would be like...it just didn't do anything for me. The restaurant is beautiful. The west wing was right out of the movie which is very cool to see. That in itself is worth taking a peak however, I won't be returning. This was a one and done for me. I ordered the strip steak. It tasted like I cooked it on the grill at home. It was good but not great. It was tender but not melt in mouth great. It was ok. The strawberry cheesecake for dessert was just ok too. We sampled the soup, that was just ok. Service was ok. It wasn't that it was bad. The food was passable It was a bit of a let down. Again...maybe I went thinking that this was going to the "the" place on property and it just didn't do it for me. Beast was ok as well def not the best character interaction on property. Other reviewers were wow-ed. I was not.

Was hesitant to eat here from the mixed reviews. So glad my party and I stuck with our plans to eat at La Hacienda. This was by far the best meal I've ever had on property. We come to Disney at least once a year for our vacation. We ordered the La Hacienda for 2 and fish tacos for our meals. La Hacienda was fantastic. All sides included were great. I did order the Rose flavored margarita. I did not care for it but that was just my personal taste, someone else may love it. The atmosphere was nice nothing remarkable but the food did not disappoint. Can't wait to return to La Hacienda!!!

I have stayed at all the all star resorts and i actually loved the decor of movies best.. have stayed in Fantasia 2x Herbie 2x and Mighty ducks 1x.
since i am a park person, i dont "hang out" at the resort much... use the pools only on occasion (july-aug trips) rooms are clean, service is disney quality and the decor is adorable. food court is large, many tables and even when crowded it isnt hard to find a table. selections are good for a food court and although they dont change much the food isnt bad...and affordable.. usually just eat breakfast in the resort... favorites include mickey waffles, omelets, and the platter. lunch & and dinner usually in the parks or other resorts. now, with fees for luggage on the planes, i take less clothes and use the laundry facility. plenty of washers and dryers and never had to wait. nice arcade, the nieces loved it..and good bus service to the parks.. since i prefer longer stays i usually stick to all star and pop resorts...so i can afford 14+ days. highly recommend

This is now our favorite resort. We stayed for 2 nights on 06/24 to try it. The staff was great. The resort had a great feel to it. The pools were both nice. The resort does not feel to big. The bus waits for us were not good. The ferry was nice. The beach was relaxing and a nice view for the water pageant. The resort was clean.
Pros:
quiet, pool, theme, staffCons:

This was our first time staying at a moderate. We stayed from 06/13-06/15 in a royal room. The room was beautiful. The resort was clean. Our view was great from our room and we were near the bridge to go over to the main building. The food court was very good. The staff was friendly.
Pros:
food court, convenience to DTD, staffCons:

We stayed here from 6/26-6/28. We love OKW, but were let down this time. Our check in did not go to smoothly. Our room was dirty. The counter service which we have never tried previously was awful and the service was as well. Based on this visit I would not recommend it. I give it a 6 though because we have loved it on other trips.
Pros:
closeness to dtd, beautifulCons:

I don't know why I am not a huge fan of the resort. The kids loved the pool and I loved how close we were to Epcot and Boardwalk. I love the resort, but I don't have a Disney feel when I am there. Check in went well. There was a mess up with transfering our park tickets. We were only here for 1 night on the 6/15.
