This was our first time to Disney World (took 62 years) and the Old Key West Resort. Check in was so easy, we purchased the magic bands and had them ready the day of our trip. Driving into the resort gave us a feeling of coming home. Loved the layout of the buildings and the color palettes, lots of palm trees with a very tropical feel (a lot like the Florida Keys) We were in building 44 (2nd floor, Turtle Pond Road). Stayed in a 1 Bedroom Villa. We were amazed at the layout and “SIZE” of the floor plan. Everything looked cleaned and welcoming! When traveling, especially when you are going for a first time, I have some apprehensions on how accurate reviews, photos and videos are (no matter how much research has been done) until you are at the destination. We couldn’t have more pleased. We had a view of a pond when looking out the sliding glass doors or out on the patio. The patio was larger than most patios. The only thing that would have been better is that the patio chairs were all metal (hard to sit on long). If not the best, then one of the best, places we have ever stayed. Housekeeping came in everyday and tidied up even though we said just new towels would be acceptable. Parking was great, right in front of the building. Bus stop was a 3 minute walk from our building. We used the boat ride to Disney Springs (after dark) which was very a nice amenity and real easy to use (both going and coming back). The transportation system is flawless (very easy to use and navigate, well marked) and runs like a well oiled clock. Room safe is smaller than other resorts. Washer and dryer came in real handy! The bedroom has a door that opens out onto the patio. The resort was quiet and well maintained. We will definitely stay here again at some point. Hated to leave. Read less

Still my favorite place to stay at WDW and my reason for that is the same reason that some people don't like it. It's quiet, it's secluded, and it doesn't feel very "Disney". It has one of my favorite restaurants in Olivia's, has a golf course running through it, still has tennis courts (though now with the egregious paddle ball.....I won't call… Read more
Still my favorite place to stay at WDW and my reason for that is the same reason that some people don't like it. It's quiet, it's secluded, and it doesn't feel very "Disney". It has one of my favorite restaurants in Olivia's, has a golf course running through it, still has tennis courts (though now with the egregious paddle ball.....I won't call it the other thing.....lines painted on it). I'm just trying to paint a picture of the type of resort this is. The rooms are big, but have just started to get close to needing another refub. The last one finished about 5 years ago now, so OWK is probably due for another in 2025 or so. They're still clean of course (it is Disney), just a bit dated. Read less

Beware of your surroundings at this resort. Me, my daughter and her cousin were followed by a strange man. He first watched the girl while they were tie dying, then when we left he followed us back to our room. I quickly reported it to security but not much was done. I had a feeling this happens often.

Beware of your surroundings at this resort. Me, my daughter and her cousin were followed by a strange man. He first watched the girl while they were tie dying, then when we left he followed us back to our room. I quickly reported it to security but not much was done. I had a feeling this happens often. It was a very scary experience for me and my two young girls. The resort needs to take better measures at the front gate, the front gate employees shouldn’t just let everyone into the resort. More security needs to be put in place. This resort isn’t a safe place to bring children. Read less

Beautiful resort and rooms. Busses were a bit crowded and took long to get through the huge resort. There are many stops. The good: Very nice resort, pool area, Gift shop, Small bar and take out food onsite. Plenty of nice areas to sit. I had the 2 bedroom suite, which fit 7 adults comfortably. It had a nice desk to sit outside. The Bad: Olivia's restaurant (onsite) was overpriced and understaffed. Food was okay and atmosphere was great. Housekeeping does not exist unless you call. They do not clean the rooms, so every night after returning from a long day at their parks, you have the same trash and unmade beds you left in the morning. Unacceptable for the price you pay for these accommodations. I called and they said they do a trash and towel check every day, which isn't true. One night I had to wait over an hour for towels so we could take a shower. Resorts like this still taking advantage of covid rules is ridiculous! You book a "Deluxe resort" so you don't have to see old trash, towels on the floor and unmade beds! I called several times and said "I want housekeeping everyday" and they just talk over you and confuse you with excuses and nonsense. The boat service is good for Epcot, but not other parks. For those parks, you have to take the buses. Read less
