The guest rooms are decorated in cheerful, beach pastel colors, and both parents and kids will enjoy hanging out by the lagoon-like pool. Several restaurants ranging in price as well as culinary style are also on the property, which is about a 20 minute walk from the World Showcase entrance of EPOCT. Complimentary boat or bus transportation is available to all the parks.

The Scene
Who can forget the enchanting nighttime vision of the illuminated swans atop the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort? The hotels may have been designed with children in mind, but adults are equally impressed. Combined, the Swan and Dolphin offer more than 2,000 guest rooms, suites, and club rooms.

The Details
Located in the heart of the Epcot Resort Area, guests can walk, cruise or shuttle to almost everything Disney has to offer. At the Swan and Dolphin, you may choose from 17 restaurants and lounges, or 24-hour room service. Also on site are several outdoor pools including a three-acre grotto pool with white sand beach, a spa, and four lighted tennis courts. If golf is your game, there are numerous resort courses and 36 holes of miniature golf at Disney's Fantasia Gardens.

The Swanky Swan

by PUG1964

My wife an I honeymooned there and were very pleased by the accomodations and the friendly staff. Out of all of the hotels in Disney World Property I feel it's location is great for park hopping. A short walk to EPCOT and you can board the monorail to the Magic Kingdom. Or you can walk or boat to Disney Studios. Plus theres the Boardwalk.

• Pros: location
• Cons: price

Great service

by robynwins

The Dolphin had fantastic service from the staff, extremely friendly and more than willing to help guests. Great location in WDW, best price for a luxury hotel at WDW as well. Dolphin Club for kids was great, my son asked to go back! Highly recommend!

• Pros: Location, Price, Service

Think twice before staying

by herbstsa

I was VERY disappointed with the Swan. For the price, quality was very poor. While the staff was friendly and helpful, the accomodations were seriously lacking. We went through 5 different rooms before finding one acceptable to stay in - one of the rooms was unbearably musty. You should definitely consider the Hyatt Grand Cypress - only slightly more expensive but worth EVERY penny - truly a resort! You cannot go wrong there.

• Pros: Service
• Cons: Expensive, Lacking in quality
