Suites near Disney

[SJ mom]

has anyone stayed in a suite hotel Disney that they could receommend. We plan to spend most of our time at WDW with a car but plan to visit other parks. Anything nice, with a decent pool, clean, breakfast included is a plus.

I don't know anyone who has stayed here, but Holiday Inn opened a family suites Nickelodeon resort very close to the Epcot side of Disney and also to Sea World that looks cool.

There is also Holiday Inn Sunspree very close to Downtown Disney side of the park.

I recommend looking at the 'Unofficial Guide to Disney', I took it out of the library and has tons of hotels listed.

My neighbors stayed at the Orlando Westgate and said it was very nice. I have stayed at a Westgate elsewhere and it was quite nice.

I would consider a rental house/condo - you can get more for your money and many (usually 3 bedrooms and up) come with a private pool and hot tub. Most have at least a community pool too. We did that last year and again this year - for multiple families it has been 400-500 dollars each/week. Of course the bigger your group, the nicer the houses and the less cost.

We used vacation rentals by owner (have used for other vacation houses too)- www.vrbo.org. For example, look at these listings(just the first couple that popped up).

We satyed in Formosa Gardens last year and Windsor Hills this year - both about 10 minutes from Disney parking lots (in Fall traffic)

I do not have any rental properties or know anyone who does- just have had great experiences in rental houses and love that we can take a swim during nap time or early bedtimes.
If you have any questions, I'd be glad to answer them.
