The hotel

Bringing the Caribbean to Florida, you can expect endless fun at Disney's Caribbean Beach. Split into 5 islands: Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, Trinidad and Aruba, you can expect loads of pools to relax in, and so much for little ones to do. Head to one of the lively markets, chill at the beach surrounding the lake, or spend a few hours at the Fuentes del Morro pool, with slides galore, water cannons, and a shipwreck play area. Heading to the parks couldn't be easier - jump aboard the Skyliner gondola and you'll be in Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios in no time!

We were first here back in February and thought it was a pretty low-grade experience. We decided to try it again, as the deal was good and we did like the location to the Skyliner transportation.

We were first here back in February and thought it was a pretty low-grade experience. We decided to try it again, as the deal was good and we did like the location to the Skyliner transportation. This time the room seemed a bit nicer and overall better - was on the 2nd floor this time (not first - just be aware no elevator if you have a stroller or scooter); this higher floor was preferred for us. The bathroom/shower was still pretty outdated and it's a hotel room with a door straight to the outside; which we were aware of. Would recommend due to the location to the Skyliner, ease of buses, and the main quick service food was decent. Read less

We loved our stay at this beautiful Disney resort. We stayed for a week, visiting WDW from the UK. The setting is stunning and we found the stay to be good value for money, especially because we received dining credit. The room was spacious and clean with a giant comfy king bed. We enjoyed the pool one day and tried 3/4 dining places. There’s lots of food options to suit everyone, whether you want a quick service sandwich or pastry, Caribbean feast at Sebastian’s or just a cocktail at Banana Cabanas. The transportation was excellent with regular buses and the skyliner options for Epcot and Hollywood Studios. The resort is big so there is a lot of walking involved, but you can get on the internal busses. We would definitely stay here again. Read less

Incredible experience ! Staff was amazing, thoughtful and answering every single question we had. Altought it's a big resort everything is pretty much close by. Disney's amazing service adds to the experience. Being serviced by the Skyliner (a gondola like you find in Ski resorts) to transport you to either Epcot or Hollywood studios this was very convient during our stay. For the other parcs the Bus system is very efficient and gets you to Magic Kingdom or Animal Kingdom in no time. At the Skyliner base for Hollywood studios there is a Coffee shop called Jeoffrey's (Will review in full in another review) where the coffee is very good and the apple fritters are just amazing. Since our stay was for 3 days of park hopping and 4 nights sleep we did not take full advantage of the resort; we suggest, and that is our plan for next time, that you reserve 1 additional day to fully enjoy what this resort as to offer. Restaurants seemed very nice although we only ate at one of them. The room was comfortable and roomy enough for the 4 of us. The main pool at Old Port Royal is just amazing with beach like entry and 2 slides in which we had so much fun. During the day staff will organize activities for the kids such has races and fun games to spice up the atmosphere. We will surly return to this resort for our next Disney trip. Read less

We were worried about this hotel but were pleasantly surprised. From check-in, the service was excellent and every member of staff went out of their way to make sure we had a ‘magical’ stay. We asked to be moved to the Trinidad section due to the updated rooms. The floor plan makes the most out of the space by having beds that fold into the wall… Read more
We were worried about this hotel but were pleasantly surprised. From check-in, the service was excellent and every member of staff went out of their way to make sure we had a ‘magical’ stay. We asked to be moved to the Trinidad section due to the updated rooms. The floor plan makes the most out of the space by having beds that fold into the wall and convert into the couch. Getting around the resort was a bit of a hassle, it luckily we were near the bus stop and the sky liner. There is not an elevator to the second floor, but this did not cause us any issues. Also very useful to have a laundry room. Thanks Disney. Read less

My family missed a return flight and stayed here for one night, figuring we couldn't go wrong with a Disney mid-tier hotel. While it isn't that we went wrong, I'd definitely categorize this more as a budget hotel. The air conditioning was poor, the bathroom was ugly, old and cheap-looking, and though the room was technically clean, it was just… Read more
My family missed a return flight and stayed here for one night, figuring we couldn't go wrong with a Disney mid-tier hotel. While it isn't that we went wrong, I'd definitely categorize this more as a budget hotel. The air conditioning was poor, the bathroom was ugly, old and cheap-looking, and though the room was technically clean, it was just dingy and didn't feel clean. I could have spent half as much for a hotel near the airport that I suspect would have been on par. For travelers who know they are getting into, this should meet expectations and the price premium comes from its proximity to the Disney parks, I suppose. But a travel agent had recommended this as a mid-range option a couple of years ago before our first trip to Disney, and I would have had a horrible first experience and might not have returned if I'd been based here.
