Oh, I'm not saying you're doing anything wrong. Or anyone else for that matter. I apologise if I gave that impression.

One thing I have seen is measurements of distance to the 4 main parks, rather than just "to Disney World" (which, as you say, could just be the closest Disney arch).

From the two houses (both Dibb villas as it happens) we've stayed in, I think the key determinant in "time to Disney World" is traffic lights.

The difference between a good/lucky day and a bad/unlucky day is marked. You can wait for a VERY long time at a set of lights!

No need to apologise, you didn't offend me, it's like how long is a piece of string isn't it?

Which arch?

If I’ve got your villa right then its about
14 miles magic kingdom
14 miles Epcot
11 miles animal kingdom
9.7 miles Hollywood studios
10 miles Disney springs

We stayed on highlands reserve and never really had a problem with the distance driving and we were 16miles away from the furthest park.

Villa is stunning btw but just too big for just 4 of us.

That's not bad given the time out there. X
