Lake Buena Vista hotel?

Any recommendations?

Looking for somewhere after our cruise for 3 nights that is good value but with a good pool for kids. We will not have Disney tickets as not going to Disney this year. I would like to be near Disney to visit Disney Springs, Broadwalk area and AKL. Basically looking to entertain kids for a few days without having to spend a lot of money. We will be using Lyft to get around as will not have a car.

Another option would be near universal studios as will have universal studios tickets but will be spending 4 nights onsite before our cruise

I stayed at the Clarion Inn last time. Basic but very good value for money. There is a small park and splash park as well as the swimming pool.

Hi. We stayed at the Best Western near disney springs about 4 years ago. It was about a 10-15 minute walk to Disney Springs. The Crossroads which has multiple restaurants and a supermarket was within a 5 minute walk. Also there was a Miller's and usual chain restaurants nearby. The room was big, and we had a balcony. We watched the fireworks from Epcot, HS and MK on some nights. You can see spaceship earth in the distance and various other famous sites. Although you are not going to parks there are regular shuttles from early and late. It's a really good base. Have a great stay.😃

We stayed at Sheraton Vistana Resorts Villas last year. Large resort with about 8 pools including children friendly ones, large rooms including full kitchen and a fantastic location very close to disney.

We often stay for a night or so at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in the Marriott Village. Reasonable access to Disney Springs and close to quite a few restaurants, some walkable. The pool is nice.

All the hotels on Hotel Plaza Blvd are nice, walking distance (good walkway, very safe) to Disney Springs in one direction, the Crossroads in the other direction with lots of restaurants and a supermarket. Would recommend B resort or Holiday Inn 🙂

We are currently at the Blue Heron resort which is a suite / condo type please and can't fault it for the money. The pool is beautiful. We have stayed at the Clarion before which is more basic but again good value for the price.

Thanks all, We are leaning towards the LBV Village Resort & Spa even though the location is not as good, as can get a really good price using our Avios points. We will be only there 2 whole days.
