Disney's Coronado Springs Resort

Kathryn Lowery

Disney didn’t disappoint. Service, rooms, cleanliness, and food options were all great. Pricing for food, in the gift shop etc. is on the higher side; with typical resort pricing. The food is outstanding and the grounds are immaculate. Definitely recommend staying in the tower or you’ll need to walk quite a bit to get food and to the lobby etc. Definitely would come back. I only wish the main pool opened a bit earlier, it opened at 10am.

Absolutely Amazing. First off, the resort is gorgeous. The beds are so comfortable, provided with plenty of pillows. The pools are clean and my daughter had so much fun on the water slide. The hot tub is great after a long day in the parks. The staff are so friendly. My daughter got sick one night and staff came to give us new bedding. The next morning we received a phone call to check in to see how she was feeling and if we needed anything (thankfully she was feeling better, just got too hot). That evening she had a couple of gifts waiting for her in the room. She was thrilled and said she wanted to thank whoever gave it to her. So if you see this, thank you! My only complaint is the breakfast place doesn't open until 7. With early entry into the parks, there were a lot of guests complaining about it being open too late and I agree. I think it would be better to open at 6 for those early risers. Overall this is my favorite resort so far out of the 3 I've stayed at. I will definitely visit again.

We just got back from our stay here and… honestly it was a mixed bag. I am not one to post I usually just read everyone elses thoughts but I feel like I need to share about this one. For reference this trip was myself, husband, son (15) and daughter (9). My dad and step mom also accompanied us as this trip was to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. The resort itself is beautiful but it was just too big for us. We knew it was large when we booked but between all the walking and the crowds from multiple conventions it felt a bit much. Our first impression was not great. The lobby was packed when we arrived and it was hard to get help. Even just asking a cast member where the restroom could be found seemed like an inconvenience to them. Thankfully the guys working outside were super kind and helped us find our building and where to park. The biggest downside though… the food... Every meal from the food court was terrible and I ended up getting food poisoning from one of them 🤢 which knocked me out for a day and made me miss park time. Buses were another frustration. We actually love and prefer bus transportation during our Disney stays but this resort had extremely long waits. The buses were always packed and because there are several stops before even leaving the resort people were crammed in and standing every time. One evening we waited 45 minutes for a Disney Springs bus that could not even fit everyone then on the way back we waited another 25–30 minutes. For a moderate resort that felt a little crazy. The night before checkout we tried to get a luggage cart to load up our car. We were told one would be brought to our room we waited over an hour and called again and were told we actually had to go get one ourselves from the tower (which was really far). My son and I made the walk and when we finally got there the cast member I came in contact with literally laughed when I asked if they had any and told me they did t have any. I explained we had been waiting and got misinformation and was pretty upset about the situation. Despite his attitude he went in the back and found one but that experience really summed up how unhelpful most of the staff felt. Housekeeping was amazing (seriously, they were the nicest people we met there) but overall the rest of the staff just did not feel very friendly or welcoming. We left our trip feeling sad and that it didn’t feel like “Disney” to us. I truly think it was because of this resort.. In closing this is a beautiful place but between the food poisoning, buses, and rude service Coronado Springs is a one and done for us.

Sizable resort with plenty to do for the family. Shopping, restaurants, lots of pools. Plenty of activities in and out of the pool to meet the kids engaged but not overwhelmed. Our first stay at Disney and it was worth the price for the location and transportation alone. But the service is top notch and the staff was amazing. Clean, well kept and organized. Buses were frequent and the schedules at the stops were a great feature. Beautiful property and well maintained. We had a family of 4 with two younger kids and there was plenty of room in a double queen room to spread out. Ice and laundry we're close and amenities were nice. Did at the resort was great. Both grab and go as well as sit down we're high quality. Morning in Orlando is cheap but this resort felt like it provided the value we were looking for in a family vacation. Would highly recommend.

This without doubt the best moderate Disney World resort/hotel. It's very large but split up into differently themed areas so it doesn't feel so big. It's easy to navigate and the theaming is spot on. It's a truly beautiful location. The main pool is great as is the nearby hot tub. The pool is serviced by a bar and quick service food counter, which offers slightly different options to the main food court. If quick service isn't your thing then there are numerous other dining options to suit all tastes and wallets. The view from the Dahlia Lounge outside balcony is amazing, but stand by for a bit of vertigo as it's located on the 16th floor of Gran Destino Tower! There are several Disney transport bus stops around the resort so no need to walk far from your room to go to the parks. I'm addition to the main pool there are also 3 'local' pools - one for each accommodation area. These are all really nice and handy if you want to just take a dip or relax away from the busier main pool. My family and I are Disney 'veterans' and having stayed ay various value and moderate resorts, we'll be going to Coronado Springs for a third time in 2026. We now consider this our 'go to' resort and will not now stay anywhere else. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed.
