We are going back...loved it.
Barry C on Jun 05, 2025
Loved it.... Had stayed at Port Orleans Riverside Christmas 12 months ago and that was fab but we have just rebooked to stay at Caribbean beach again. Yes its a big resort but its well designed so you are ...not a million miles from anywhere. Skyline to Epcot and Hollywood Studios is a major bonus. There were 4 of us in a 5th sleeper room. The kids are adult size and we didn't use the 5th bed. Nice size and there was nothing to whinge about. The resort is so nice and the staff were great. We are not high maintenance but when we asked for anything i.e. struggled with using the laundry machines, the staff went over and above. I highly recommend the resort.
Perfect accommodation located between the parks
Stacy Jane H (United Kingdom) on Jun 03, 2025
This hotel was amazingly located with the skyline enabling you to easily get to Hollywood studios and Epcot. Also the buses that get you to magic kingdom and animal kingdom. We had 3 in the room. My son h...ad the pull out sofa bed and me and my husband had the double. Air con was great. Shower good pressure. My hairdryer didn’t work well because of the voltage difference from the UK. No wear really to hang clothes would be the only thing. We don’t use any of the facilities in the room as we literally only slept and showered here. But we would 100% stay here again.
