The hype
Travelers love the renovated rooms and proximity to Disney Springs but consistently complain about the internal bus loop taking forever.
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
$321-700+ / noc
Zarezervujte to, ak You want a peaceful, golf-course vibe that's a 10-minute walk from Disney Springs nightlife but far from the chaotic theme park energy.
Prečo sa ľuďom páči
- Walkable access to Disney Springs dining and shopping
- Sprawling, quiet grounds that feel like a legitimate break from the parks
- Newly renovated rooms with smart Murphy beds instead of lumpy sleeper sofas
Rýchly prehľad: It's a massive, spread-out condo complex that happens to be on Disney property—great for adults, exhausting for parents pushing strollers to the bus stop.
Recenzované @brittneynaylor: I stayed in this massive villa and having a full kitchen was a total lifesaver for our family trip. The resort grounds are super peaceful, and being able to walk right over to Disney Springs for dinner made our evenings so easy. Definitely request a room near the Paddock Pool!
Čo povedali hostia
Reality check
The 'Springs' section is the most convenient but is the LAST bus stop, meaning buses are often full by the time they reach you during peak hours.
- You plan to spend your evenings eating and drinking at Disney Springs
- You have a car (parking is free for guests again)
- You prefer a quiet, pastoral atmosphere over in-your-face Disney characters
Čistota a údržba
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable 'light' service for DVC stays (trash/towel), full cleaning every 4th day. Staff are responsive to requests.
- Bathroom hygiene: Renovated bathrooms are sleek and easy to clean. Occasional complaints about grout discoloration in older units or Treehouses.
- Maintenance: Solid. The 2021 renovation fixed most wear-and-tear issues. Watch out for rusting AC vents in some ground-floor units.
- Linens & towels: Standard Disney quality—clean but not luxury. Murphy beds have surprisingly comfortable mattresses.
- Odors & scents: Fresh and neutral. The 'musty' smell of the old carpeted rooms is largely gone post-renovation.

Často kladené otázky a skryté tipy
Všetko, čo potrebuješ vedieť pred rezerváciou.
Is the spa actually open?
No. Senses Spa is currently closed ('temporarily unavailable') with reports suggesting it may not reopen soon. The fitness center remains open 24/7.
How long is the walk to Disney Springs?
From Congress Park, it's a breezy 5-10 minutes. From the Carousel or Grandstand sections, it's a 20+ minute trek or a bus ride.
Does the resort have elevators?
Yes, all main buildings have elevators. However, the Treehouse Villas do NOT have elevators.
Which pool is best for kids?
The Paddock Pool is arguably better than the main High Rock Spring pool—it has a huge slide, a great splash pad, and better food options.
Can I walk to Epcot?
No. It looks close on a map, but there is no walking path. You must take a bus or drive.
Are the rooms renovated?
Yes, the main resort rooms were fully renovated around 2021 with hard floors and Murphy beds. Treehouse Villas are being renovated now (2025-2027).
Insider tipy
- ✨
If staying in 'The Springs' (main building area), walk over to the 'Paddock' bus stop to catch the bus. The Springs is the last stop and buses are often full.
- ✨
The Paddock Grill serves a breakfast croissant sandwich that rivals many table-service spots.
- ✨
Request a room near the walkway in Congress Park to have a 'back door' entrance to Disney Springs near the Marketplace.
5 vecí, ktoré by ste mali vedieť pred cestou
💡The 'Spa' in the hotel name is a ghost town—it's closed indefinitely.
💡The internal bus loop has 5 stops; if you get on at The Grandstand (1st stop), you will tour the entire resort for 15 minutes before leaving for a park.
💡The Carousel section is a 'dead zone'—no pool, far from food, and feels isolated.
💡You can take a boat to Disney Springs, but the line is often slower than just walking from Congress Park.
💡The gym is actually one of the best on Disney property because it was built to support the (now closed) spa.
