    Amazing!

    Amazing resort! I cannot say enough great things. Every single aspect of our stay was perfection. We stayed in the Ranchos section and loved it. We didn’t mind the longer walk to the main area/restaurants as the property is so gorgeous. Pool area got busy, so we stayed in the smaller pools which were quiet and peaceful. Hot tub should be regulated as at many times there were 30 plus people jammed in for extended periods. Food at all restaurants was amazing! Proximity to Disney was great. All staff were helpful. I can only hope to return again some day!

    Underwhelmed

    Well located for Disney parks via the provided buses. Very large resort, lacking atmosphere, no Disney theming that I could see. Overun with cheerleaders during my stay. Unable to find a seat to eat, they seemed to take over the tower lobby with a food delivery. Practicing stunts on the grass areas. I thought the food for QS in EL mercado was repetitive, very poor. For a my first Disney experience, it’s a one and done for me

    Good for conference, not a resort experience

    Decent hotel with limited services and very large to walk around. Came here for a cheer competition and while the location is good for all Disney activities and check and in and out is efficient, the vibe of the place didn’t have the level of service I would expect for the price and a Disney resort. Pools are just ok and food at Rix was not good. Room was fine but no water in the room and no ability to call for any. Overall fine for a conference but not really a resort experience.

    Modest Accommodations

    Extra staff on hand at check in for a busy conference was good. No help or offer to help to our room, which was a 10 minute walk across the resort. Rooms were serviced every other day. Called to ask for 4 extra towels and a garbage change on one of our off days, and they only delivered 2 towels and didn’t take the trash. Casita room overlooking pool was very loud until about 11 pm each night. Not great for traveling with a younger kiddo. Surprised the pool was open so late for a family hotel. Main pool was small and had limited seating when we were there. Nothing “Disney” themed.

    Loved our stay!

    This is our first time at Coronado Springs and we would absolutely return. Excellent location for Disney parks & Disney springs, only a 25 minute drive from Universal. We stayed in Casitas building 3, the room was very clean and was cleaned every other day, we requested a cot and was brought to us within minutes. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and were polite right through the resort. The main pool does get busy so I would recommend getting there at opening (10am) for a good sun bed spot. Overall I would return to this resort, we loved it!
