Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort

Frommer's Review

Thanks to its moderate pricing scheme and recreational activities, the Caribbean Beach is a great choice for families. The resort's rooms are spread across five villages (all Disney moderate resorts share a similar general layout) of pastel-colored buildings, each named for the islands of Aruba, Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, and Trinidad (north and south). Try and snag a corner room here if you can, as they let in more light, but don't bother springing for a pool view (those rooms can get noisy). The lush tropical greenery adds a touch of island atmosphere. Parrot Cay, the resort's main pool area and playground, is themed to an old Spanish-style fort, complete with water cannons, water slides, and waterfalls. The closest park is Disney's Hollywood Studios, though it can take up to 45 minutes to get there using Disney transportation -- it's best to rent a car if you stay here.

Facilities: Restaurant; food court; lounge; large outdoor heated pool; 6 smaller pools in the villages; kids' pool; beach; jogging trail; volleyball; Jacuzzi; watercraft rentals; multiple playgrounds; arcade; WDW Transportation System; transportation to non-Disney parks for a fee; limited room service; babysitting; laundry service
