Hotels Near Marketplace Co-Op - The Dress Shop on Cherry Tree Lane in Lake Buena Vista

We were greeted by Franciely she was great and she took care of us and made sure we were well attended. We got a couple of frozen drinks and mixed drinks and they tasted so good! I highly recommend swinging by this bar and enjoying the fun in the sun and the great people!

The Fairfield at Marriott Village is a great holiday. The location is so wonderful that regretfully, we did not have an opportunity to use the hotel amenities such as the pool etc. We did have breakfast daily, which had a good selection of hot items, breads and cereals. The Mickey Mouse pancakes were delicious. Our rooms were large and spacious, with great air conditioning, lovely hot showers and sufficient tv channels. The beds and rooms were very clean. It is very handy that there are washers and dryers and ice machines on every floor or every other floor. The hotel offers a free shuttle to the parks but we preferred to drive to be able to leave and return to the park, for necessary breaks in the height of the heat. Would happily stay there again. There are 2 other hotels on the property (Courtyard and Springhill). I imagine these are more upscale. I would have appreciated an offer to ”upgrade” at a nominal fee to experience.

I really wanted to love this resort. I have read good things and needed to try it for myself. There are good points to the resort. The rooms were comfy and clean. I liked the food options. Riding the boat to Disney Springs was a very relaxing experience with great new views of the grounds. Unfortunately they booked us into a building with no water service. No warning was given. I had mentioned during check-in that we were hoping to get a room and get some laundry done so nearby laundry would be great. We couldn't even flush the toilet. When I called customer service to let them know about the water issue they informed me there wasn't a restoration time but the outage would be temporary. I'm sorry - water availability is actually a need - not a nice option to have. They told me I could get my name on a list and be called back if another room became available with water. Uhh... we packed up and went back down to the lobby. When walking into the lobby there was a sign indicating there was a planned electrical outage for the next morning between 1:30 and 5:00 am. Terrific! No water and no electricity! At that point I was beyond upset and emotional. After wasting another 30 minutes waiting they magically found us a room with water. We went and got laundry started and sat by the closest pool. There was a sign off to the side of one of the gates indicating the pool was closed for refurbishment. However there were guests enjoying the pool so we went ahead and sat down to relax for a bit. Then we all get asked to leave the pool -it's a liability to have us in there we were told. Terrific. But don't worry - we were welcome at the other on-site pools. Again - not one word about the closed pool during check-in. It was a trek to the other pools. Multiple reviews and customer service reps described this a small and intimate resort. I did not find that to be the case at all. It is very spread out and has multiple bus stops. If you don't get a room in one of the buildings next to the lobby/restaurants you will be walking quite a ways. Be prepared for that. No elevators - I knew that going in and think you should as well. Overall I understand that all hotels have maintenance issues. It's how the staff handles those issues that makes the difference. Not being upfront and honest with the guests that you're inconveniencing is completely unacceptable to me. This is a staff and guest experience failure. That's not even ok at a lesser brand - definitely not ok at Disney. I have reached out to customer service - no response at all so far.

I don’t know why all the negative reviews. It almost scared me off, but I’m glad it didn’t. We arrived early because our flight did. We upgraded our room upon a smooth and easy check-in. The room was ready within an hour. It was clean and everything seemed just great. The staff was nice. Room service through the app was tasty and always exactly on time. The ease with which one can use the boats to Epcot and Hollywood Studios can’t be beat. The only cons I could find were the tiny trash cans which become a slight nuisance when housekeeping only comes every third day and the extremely firm beds, although I’m sure someone out there likes them that way. I am a fairly picky person when it comes to hotel cleanliness and I didn’t have a single complaint the entire time. Do yourselves a favor and ignore the negative reviews and stay at The Swan.

Family and I stayed Oct 7-14, 2022. I was pleased with my room at first. We had a nice room on the main floor, close to all the restaurants and gift shops, with a balcony which is what I had paid for with a very nice view. Friday night, the first night we stayed, there was a massive water leak I believe coming from the ice machine which absolutely ponded the whole wing. All the pounding and workers talking kept up us half the night. We had to move rooms and unfortunately there were no more rooms available with balconies and were stuck with a room with absolutely no view, just a view of the awning over the front door when you come in. Definitely disappointing. Also, new room had a fingernail clipping on the floor, a used tooth flosser in the closet and a lost cough drop under the bed. We were comped $300 for switching rooms and could see fireworks from Magic Kingdom out the window, but still sad we were without a balcony with a view. We noticed the carpets were pretty worn going down the hallways and the A/C was cranked up so high, it felt like Antarctica walking down the hall. There are quite a few choices for food, but we found most of it to be mediocre and had better experiences off Disney. Shula's Steakhouse and the BlueZoo restaurant require reservations and have a dress code. We did enjoy the ice cream at the Fountain, however. There was also a fee for parking and getting to the parking lot was quite a trek. It would be excruciating for someone in a wheelchair or had problems walking. We had rented a car and bought a few groceries for the room and had to wheel them in a suitcase, it was that far of a walk. The hotel was extremely huge and very confusing. Since we had to move rooms to the 7th floor, I found myself getting lost every time I left the room. If you're looking for a hotel close to the parks, it was easy to get to Magic Kingdom and Epcot, as you could ride the water taxi or walk, and also close to the Skyliner. The walkway from the Dolphin to the Swan was pretty at night when it was lit up. In conclusion, I would not stay at this hotel again or recommend it to anyone. I feel there are a lot nicer places to stay in the Disney realm. Last year in 2021, we stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and had a way better experience. Other members of my family stayed across the pond at the Yacht Club and now I wish I would have spent the extra money to stay there - it was a lot nicer and cleaner than the Dolphin.

Hotel very well located , near supermarkets , department stores, outlet shopping and entertainment parks. The room cleaning service is not desirable because it is only 2 times a week . The pressure of the shower water is weak and because it is a room for 4 people could have more seats inside the room to give more support and support in any meals inside the room . The room is lighting deficient, just downstairs. But nothing of this has been a plunge in our stay , because we stayed longer in the street than in the hotel . The breakfast even in the daily is great ! Excellent cost benefit.

The room is big and the price is good, but the hotel doesn't know if it discriminates against the agency. We walked to the innermost room for us, and there is a swimming pool below, and we can't see animals at all... For breakfast, the hotel's breakfast buffet is good, and dinner is only for self-stay There are not many choices for simple meals at the bar, and it is recommended to come back after eating in the park

The hotel is very comfortable. The room is big and clean. The bathroom is also big and clean. The breakfast is rich and the gym is diverse and clean. You can order drinks by the pool. Everything is very convenient and close to Disney
