2/3 Bed Suites

Can anyone recommend any 2 bedroom suites please, closer to WDW than Universal that has a nice pool area and free parking preferably?

Lake Buena vista village resort and spa has both. We stayed in a 3 bedroom in block 5.

It is located as you requested.
The suites are very well equipped, including the kitchen area.
It does Courtesy shuttle buses as well as free under cover parking on site.
It has an outlet right next door.
Petrol and Walmart are just a minutes drive away.
The 3 beds have a huge whirlpool bath in the bedroom.
Some balconies look towards the Disney fireworks (ours did not).
The pool has a bar and a pirate ship.
They own an Irish bar next door where Meals are served.
It is very close indeed to the I4 (but out of hearing).

Were we to seek this type of accommodation again, then if the price was right, we would definitely stay there again. Service was great and there was nothing that we did not like.

I haven’t stayed at any of these but I’ve been researching this quite a lot. Not necessarily closer to Disney than Universal though.

If we go offsite I’ve narrowed it down to

Floridays
Vista Cay
Sheraton Vistana Villages(top choice)
The Grove Resort

We’ve stayed at Floridays and Sheraton Vistana Villages in 2 bedroomed apartments and would recommend them both.

Grande Villas by Diamond Resorts and Floridays Resort Orlando.

Stayed at Grande twice now and its a great place.
Have booked Floridays for 2021 as it looks a bit nicer than Grande and location is excellent.
Floridays is next door to Vineland Outlets and has excellent access routes outwith the I4.
You can use Daryl Carter Parkway, Palm Parkway and South Apopka Vineland to keep you off the I4 and cut down on travelling times.

10 mins from Disney Springs and 15 mins from Magic Kingdom.

Grande Villas is more central to Disney but only by a few minutes.

We stayed here the first year they opened. We loved the space, facilities and location. We had my MIL with us so 3 bedrooms was ideal and helped to reduce the cost.
