Never even considered using the I4.
The I4 is usually as quick but the other route worth considering is to head down towards the I4 but before you reach it turn left along the Ronald Regan Parkway. After a couple of miles turn left again onto Lake Wilson road. Follow this and it’ll bring you onto the 192 almost opposite Sherbeth Rd which takes you directly to Animal Kingdom. Always worth checking Google maps before you leave as the live traffic will give you a pretty good estimate of how long it’ll take you.

HI

Sorry jumping on this thread.
We are looking at booking a villa on highlands reserve for this October.

What are the drive times to DIsney and Universal from there please.

We have stayed at HIgh Grove and other resorts on US 27 but in comparison to high grove is it close to this and is this the chinese and Berry Town centre close to high grove that is being mentioned above.
Thanks

Realistically 20/25 mins to Disney and 45/50 mins to Universal.
Highlands is right next door to Berry Town Centre where the Chinese is along with Applebees, IHOP etc.
High Grove is about 1-2 miles away from Highlands.

We have stayed in Gary’s villa before it really is lovely

It has a tennis court, a small kiddies playground and a community pool but not sure I have seen very many in the latter as most villas there have their own pool obviously.
Then there is a golf course obviously with a pro shop.
