Tui 3 bed townhouse Windsor Palms

Hi all
We’ve recently booked a package with Tui for August 2020 at a price we were happy with. As it’s a package we’ve selected a 3 bed townhouse at Windsor Palms. Having booked diy for the last few years and knowing exactly which villa we were staying in, now feeling a little nervous that it’s an allocation on arrival property. Wondered if anyone had stayed in a 3 bed townhouse on Windsor palms? What was it like? Anyone done allocation on arrival with Tui? Was it ok?
Thanks in advance

We’ve stayed at Windsor Palms but not in a townhouse.
It is a great location- close enough to Rolling Oaks and the shops and restaurants there as well as to Disney.
It is a lovely community with clubhouse.
Two sets of friends stayed at Windsor Palms separately after our visit and on our recommendation.
So while I can’t vouch for the townhouses I can recommend the community.
Hopefully someone will be along to comment on the townhouse.

Windsor Palms is about as close as it gets to WDW. You will have a great time

Thank you. We’ve stayed at Indian Creek a few times so know the Formosa Gardens area well and that stretch of the 192. Good to hear Windsor Palms is a nice resort. Thank you for your replies.

We stayed there in an apartment / condo and I can vouch for it being a nice estate, really close to Animal Kingdom, and a lovely community pool area. I believe the townhouses have plunge pools as well.

Thank you. That’s good to hear. I’m hoping for a plunge pool or a hot tub. It doesn’t actually say it on the Tui description, but when I’ve looked most seem to.

We’re in a 3 bed condo at Windsor palms in 2 weeks.
On the second floor so doubt it will have a pool.

We looked at the condos too which look lovely. I think the amount of space is about the same as the townhouses.

Yeah, I’ve heard nothing but good things about Windsor palms.
Close proximity to Disney (especially animal kingdom)
Close to Formosa Gardens Boulevard so plenty of places to eat 👍
