(more…)

Disney’s Coronado Springs is one of the best moderate resorts at Walt Disney World. The Southwestern theme is carried over to all parts of the resort in a very enticing way. Coronado Springs is also the only moderate resort with a health club and hair salon located on property. The rooms are clean with plenty of space for your family. There are really no bad rooms as most rooms have been upgraded to include queen beds and flat-screen TVs. Pepper Market has many choices of cuisine to please your entire family which, to me, makes it a great food court. The feature pool is a Mayan temple with water slides and hot tubs; it’s a huge hit with the kids. Each separate resort area has quiet pools that are very relaxing for a little down time with your family. All in all the transportation system, staff, pools, rooms, all of it is wonderful and a treat for your entire family.

I cannot say enough about Sandals Royal Bahamian. This was my third time there and I just love it. It is only 15 minutes from the airport in Nassau and like all Sandals / Beaches resorts there is no line of guests waiting to check in. You go to a lounge for check in; for us it was the Piano Bar. We are always greeted by friendly staff handing out a welcome cocktail or juice and cool towel - a real treat after being on a stuffy plane. (more…)

I recently stayed at both Disney All Star Sports and Disney All Star Movie Resorts at DisneyWorld, Orlando.
