Virgin rating

The hotel

With spacious apartments that are up to 5 times the size of your average Orlando hotel room, this resort is perfect for families and groups alike. The Sufari water park is an attraction in it’s own right, complete with water slides and a lazy river, and there's also a huge indoor entertainment centre with arcade games and glow in the dark mini golf, the kids won’t know where to start! The resort feels secluded and self-contained, but you’re just 10 minutes from Walt Disney World, with a complimentary shuttle bus included to take you to the door and back.

Shaunte at the pool side in the Surfari water park was amazing. She was very attentive, friendly and always with a smile. We stayed in the Cabana 11 and the moment we walked in she was there to greet us. Kept us informed with the weather alerts and madr sure our food came out quickly.

Ralphy at the resort was super helpful and very friendly thank you. Loved this resort and nice big clean apartment. Kids loved the pool too. Would come again Their shuttle service was really good to the parks although there was one grumpy driver with slightly dodgy driving skills but it did make us laugh a little.
