Floridays Resort Orlando

I almost changed our booking last minute based on some reviews. I'm so glad I didn't. From check in, Marylou was stunning, it was pleasant all the way up to check out. We're from South Africa and stayed for 11 nights in December as a family of 6, we chose the 3 bedroom unit. Indeed real value for money, space galore and all the staff were helpful.

I love this place. The three bedroom suites are reasonably priced and are actually full bedrooms with two full size beds each in two rooms, and a master with a queen and a master bedroom. And a washer dryer, so we'll finish our trip with no duty laundry! And a kitchen to cook some eggs in the morning. The maintenance is pretty good, showers are hot but definitely not hot hot, the cabinets are dated, but for the price I'm very happy. I've stayed here twice and will definitely be back. MaryLou at the desk was always sweet to us. Pool looked nice but we never went.

Our stay at Floridays Holiday Resort in Orlando was extremely disappointing and included a serious safety incident. On our first night, we became locked INSIDE our bedroom due to a faulty doorknob and were unable to exit. We were trapped for about 20 minutes until an engineer arrived to let us out. During this time, we were unable to access our baby and 5-year-old, which was frightening and unacceptable. Situations like this should never happen, especially at a family resort. Beyond this alarming incident, the condition of the room was poor. Many of these things could be overlooked if it was one or two issues, but the accumulation of all of them is just unacceptable. - Pillows were toddler-sized and uncomfortable - Living room furniture was worn, sagging, and uncomfortable - Bathroom faucet handles fell off - Broken doorknob throughout the unit - Curtains don't cover the windows all of the way - Not enough towels were provided - Kitchen supplies were extremely limited, barely functional - Rusted dishwasher - Windows were so thin that we could hear every car passing on the highway - Some windows are broken and repaired with tape, which felt unsafe and unprofessional What made this worse is that when we raised the issue at checkout, the front desk had no record or awareness of the lock-in incident, and we were told a manager would call us back. That lack of communication and accountability is very concerning. This experience fell far below expectations for a resort of this caliber. Between the unsafe room situation and the overall poor maintenance, we would not stay here again and would caution other families to think carefully before booking. Edit: We would love to discuss this further with management and we left a note at the front desk. We have yet to be contacted by management to sort this out.

Nice size room. Staff was helpful when I wanted to switch my room even upgraded to a 3 bedroom from a 2 bedroom. Room was clean but not 5 star due to age but nothing major. If you are looking for a 2 or 3 bedroom option at a reasonable price Floridays Resort is a good option.

Pros- rooms are a good size and the Maintenance team were friendly Reception staff friendly Cleaners cleaned the room well Good size pool Pizza was good and well priced in the pool cafe Pool towels were always available Cons - Not walkable to attractions or the main parts of international drive; Only has one transfer bus for universal, doing one trip at 8.30am but not returning until 8pm (the park closed at 5pm). The one transfer bus has limited capacity so you can’t always get on the bus as it’s busy. Rooms are dated, which wouldn’t be an issue if everything worked but we had multiple issues. Most got fixed once we asked. The dishwasher tray was corroded so we asked for another which we got, but that was also rusty. The dishwasher did not work, someone came to try to fix it but we couldn’t be bothered to report it again. There is a washing machine (which was broken on arrival and later fixed) but it’s not very good. TV’s need retuning, channels in one bedroom were fine but the other two were pointless. Windows don’t stop any outside noise coming in such as the hotels staff using the leaf blower at 5am, the noise from people outside the rooms or the DJ music. Checkout was supposed to be 11am but the cleaners told us it was 10am so we had to leave early. Late checkout needs to be requested on the day. It’s $25 per hour and only until 3pm. There were no rooms available for us so we went to another hotel which worked out cheaper and we had it until 6pm (although not a luxury hotel, it felt like one after staying at floridays) We were a big group and all had issues with our rooms. None of us would return.
