Hotel Orlando Bonnet Creek Resort (Orlando, USA)

With the Disney Parks clearly visible from your hotel window, it is difficult to get any closer to the action without staying at one of the Disney Resort hotels. SeaWorld, Wet 'n Wild and Universal Orlando are all less than ten minutes away.

While the adults relax in a cabana or at the poolside bar, kids can go wild at the expansive outdoor play area. The hotel grounds feature five different pools, two lazy rivers, a water playground, mini-golf, beach volleyball and a game room.

Rooms facing toward the Disney Resort on the upper floors will have an excellent view of Epcot's nightly fireworks show 'Illuminations.' If the kids are too tired to stay at the park until closing, this is a great way to view the spectacular show from the comfort of your own room.

The Wyndham Bonnet Creek is not just a resort - the suites are also vacation rentals. Guests report that they feel repeatedly pressured by concierge staff to invest in a timeshare property, to the point that many choose to avoid answering the phone or walking through the lobby altogether.

Many guests are surprised to learn that vacation rentals do not typically provide daily housekeeping services like standard hotels would. Housekeeping is provided on a weekly basis and between guests, but otherwise you are expected to largely take care of your own cleaning.

Despite the resort's convenient placement on Disney property, there is no free transportation to any of the parks. Shuttle service is available, but the service commands a modest fee per person, which will add up when traveling with a family.
