This was my 3rd visit to Orange Lake. I had sent a request to the hotel for a room in West Village where I had stayed previously, but on arrival I was allocated East Village. We had a 2 bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor and it overlooked the golf course and a small lake. It was modern and comfortable, the lounge / kitchen / diner was lovely and had a balcony which was well protected with insect screens. The master bedroom was huge and had a window looking onto the balcony, with a very large bathroom with 2 sinks, walk in shower and a bath, and a separate toilet. The kitchen facilities were great, with dishwasher, fridge and even an air fryer function on the oven. The washing machine and tumble dryer were useful too. Pool towels are provided in your room too. There are a lot of pools, which are great. For me the quiet one at East village is perfect to relax at the end of the day and the jacuzzi is nice. River Island is very noisy and loud, my son loved the lazy river but it was very difficult to find sunbeds around there and shade is limited. We couldn’t use the North village pool as there were many sunbeds but a severe lack of shade and umbrellas. Location is amazing, it’s on the 192 highway which has plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from and is a short drive to Disney, 15-20 mins max. For me it is just so relaxing and lovely at Orange Lake, it’s a perfect place after long days at Disney. The only complaint I had was that our keys did not open the trash room so we had nowhere to put our trash and had to call resort services to come and collect it every couple of days. No one wanted to help resolve the issue with our keys. Overall I highly rate it and will definitely return one day hopefully. Read less

Very nice resort, everything you need within a mile from the gates. Nice area,I felt safe. Shopping and restaurants right outside the gates and at the resort. Near everything. The resort was very clean and the units are big. We were happy.
