Just returned from a 4 night stay at OKW from 8/15-8/16, 2025. We were in town for a lacrosse tournament and stayed on DVC points. This was not a park trip. Because of that, I was not looking to stay somewhere close to any of the parks. It was my first time at this resort and I was pleasantly surprised. I had read about the negatives including the resort size and transportation issues. We thoroughly enjoyed it. We stayed in a 2 BR in the building 45-46 area. On the map, this looked pretty far from the main lobby and pool, but it was only a 7-10 minute walk and was easy to access. We saw lots of buses but walking was actually faster. We only went to Disney Springs and the August weather made boat transportation unreliable so we did use the bus one day. It took quite some time to complete the park circuit and then head over to Disney Springs but the bus wasn't jammed and was I able to take the boat back which was simple and enjoyable. The room was large, clean and had all the amenities. Despite the age of the resort, I saw no outward signs of decay. The rooms were clean down to the walls, drapes and appliances. No signs of aging. My favorite part of the resort was the peaceful, quiet atmosphere. No screaming, crying, running or bustle. It almost felt like we were in a rental house off property. There is definitely less Disney theming here which may be a negative for some but there was enough to still let you know where you are. Olivia's was fine for dinner, not bad but not super memorable but I do wish there were more dining options. The service was impeccable both at the restaurant and from the staff. We had groceries delivered through Amazon which were held at bell services since our flight was delayed. We ate in our room for breakfast and 2 night meals. Finally, we did rent a car since we were going off property which might have made the distance more manageable, but regardless, we left with big smiles on our faces and would definitely go back.
Pros:
Relaxed atmosphere, beautiful roomsCons:

Well worth the cost, if within your budget. It's very private seating, perhaps 100 individuals.
Pros:
Private seating, plentiful mini desserts and beverages.Cons:
Not a wide variety of offerings, little gluten or sugar free options. As seating is off to the side, you'll have a slightly diminished view of the fireworks.Review of 50's Prime Time Cafe Lunch/Dinner

When she handed me the menu, I KNEW I was in for a feast!
Hi y'all! Welcome to my review of Sassagoula Floatworks And Food Factory! So good! So good I didn't want to leave but my husband said we were running late on our lightning lane for Buzz Lightyear: Space Ranger Spin! (review coming soon!)
I was immediately struck by the dazzling decor, which felt like I had stepped into the real French Quarter! We can't afford to go to Louisiana so this is the next best thing!
Of course, as always with Disney, the grass looked beautiful walking in, straight up from the Moana (2017) film!
We really enjoyed the plates! We took turns! I took the first bite with tears of joy in my eyes, and then DEVOURED the shrimp and grits in less than two minutes and 16 seconds, NO TIME TO SPARE. Hahahahahaha!
And the cornbread? Yes please! With butter? Even better!
"I'll have the jambalaya please!" said the 3rd of my beautiful boys
"I'll take that too!" said the 2nd
"I'll take that too!" said the others!
Such darlings! Truly! When we went on this trip we told them they could eat some yummy benyays and that was soooooooooo good! I had such a nice time. Thank you. I hope a chef sees this and it makes their day!
Compliments to the chef I hope this makes your day!
Remember friends, keep calm and Disney on!

Walked over to Riverside from French Quarter. Hoped to see Bob Jackson but turned out he was on vacation. He is a treasure! My friend and I shared a charcuterie board and we had good margaritas. Plenty of food for two and tasty. It's always nice to visit River Roost Lounge.
Pros:
Good snacks and drinks. Bob's the best when he's there!Cons:

It's been awhile since I've been here. It had gone downhill in my opinion but lately the menu's been improved and reviews have been good. I tried the buffalo chicken grilled cheese sandwich and it was quite tasty. So was the side salad. A couple other things on the menu looked good so I wouldn't be afraid to try it again in the future.
Pros:
Good sandwich-plenty of seating.Cons:
Lots of loud groups of young teens but they were having fun.Review of Narcoossee's

A bit pricey was good food.Review of Wailulu Bar and Grill

I really enjoyed my first lunch at Wailulu. The setting is so lovely and the food was very good. I ate Teriyaki Chicken Sliders and would order them again. I'd love to try the burger someday-it looked great going by. The Liliakulani Mai Tai was very tasty. My waitress was very friendly . Nice lunch experience.
Pros:
Good foo-good prices-nice atmosphere.Cons:

Great African margarita! The tangerine liquor gives it such a nice flavor.
