Storey Lake, Windsor at Westside or Solara resort

[SAFC_FTM]

Hi,

Got my flights booked for next year and i'm stuck on which resort to book for our villa, I thought I had it narrowed down but now my choices seemed to have broadened the more I have looked!

We won't be hiring a car so plan on Uber or public transport.
Also we tend to have a decent amount of rest days so I'm looking at resorts that have good communal areas and that's why I've narrowed it down to the 3 I've mentioned.
Would be interested to hear from anyone who has stayed at any of these resorts.

Location wise I am favouring Storey Lake is i gives us options to use Lynx bus with a stop just outside resort, with the other resorts it looks like its Uber only.

All of them seem to have nice communal pools and club houses but I can't seem to find definitive info on what time pool closes on a night as kids like night time pool if possible. So if anyone has stayed in any of these resorts and could confirm opening/closing times.

For the actual villas I seem to be leaning towards Westside or Solara as the upstairs in these seem to have a bigger area which has a second TV lounge.
Also the villa pools at these resorts seem slightly bigger.
Again if anyone has been in this villas advice on how big the pools are would be appreciated as I know pictures can be deceiving!

Any replies appreciated as seems I am spoilt for choice

Having stayed last year at Storey Lake I can offer this advice:

The communal pool area is lovely and huge, but could be a long walk without a car depending on where your villa actually is. Can't remember times.

Similarly, could be a real trek to the bus stop.

The pool in our villa was a small, splash pool. I don't know if they are all the same or not.

The villa itself was lovely. It was a 4-bed one and it was huge.

Thanks for that, its 4 bed we are looking at too.

The villa I'm looking it is 5 minutes walk to clubhouse (over 1 of the bridges) and 5 minutes walk the other way to bus stop so should be ok.

Did you use the communal pool on a night at any times?

No, only during the day.
