Disney's Old Key West Resort!

I have been a total slacker since I came home from Disney.... I really need to start blogging about our amazing trip!
So, here it goes :)

We stayed at the Old Key West- it was amazing! It is one of the Disney Vacation Club resorts, actually it is the very first vacation club resort they opened. It is based on the Florida Keys and truly makes you feel like you are on a tropical vacation! It is considered one of the downtown Disney resorts and provides a nice boat ride over to downtown Disney.

Our room was located right off the hospitality house and less than a 30 second walk to bus stop, which was wonderful. Nothing beats closer to the bus stop after a long day at the parks!

We had a two bedroom villa that we shared with another couple. There were two bedrooms- one master with a king size bed and another room with two queen beds. There were two bathroom, the master had a stand up shower and Jacuzzi tub. There was also a large living room area with a dining room and kitchen. You could also sleep more people in the living room if needed. The room also had a balcony with a outside table, ceiling fan, and beautiful view of the golf course.

There were several pools on the property, the main pools and quiet pools. We were close by to the main pool which had an awesome water slide along with a play area for children, huge sand area, tennis courts, and a fire pit.

The resort has a sit down restaurant, Olivia's, which services breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We didn't try it out, but it always smelled good. There are two counter services available which we did try, they have your basic Disney counter services (think burgers, salads, and sandwiches). There is also the Generals Store which was stocked with food, drinks, and everything you would need at Disney!

Here are some pictures that we took of the resort and inside our room!

I loved all the palm trees!!

Overall, we LOVED Old Key West and will definitely be staying there again. The rooms were very spacious and well decorated. Our only complaint was the multiple bus stops, we were the first bus stop to be picked up and it took about 15 mins to ride around the resort. Not the end of the world, but not always fun!!
