12 Reasons To Stay At Wyndham Disney Springs Resort
I had the pleasure of staying here again recently and now I will give you my top 12 reasons to stay at Wyndham Disney Springs Resort. Choose between the Wyndham Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort OR Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs.
1. Disney Springs. Located at the entrance, it’s a short five minute walk over from the hotel. No major streets to cross and no stairs. You can make your way over by the elevators and walkway to enjoy everything Disney Springs has to offer.
2. Character Breakfast. Maybe you aren’t visiting Walt Disney World or can’t get tickets for the Character breakfast in the park, so have fun with official Disney Characters during your breakfast on select mornings. Pluto and Goofy was more than happy to entertain the kids of all ages and take plenty of “goofy” photos.
A large teddy bear greeted us upon entry. My thought though – why wasn’t it Mickey?
3. Wyndham Lake Buena Vista is an official Walt Disney World® Resort. (Look for big news at the end of this post. You can buy tickets here to avoid the lines and shop at the Disney store.
4. M-I-C-K-E-Y waffle. Who can come to Orlando and not have one. These are available everyday during the breakfast buffet. Which is a great way to start your day either at the park or just hanging out.
Lots of other goodies available during breakfast everyday.
5. Convenience. Shuttles are available about every 30 minutes to all of the Walt Disney Parks. Check the times but they run very late at night (early morning) for everyone to enjoy the most of their time.
6. Oasis Aquatic Pool Area. With two heated pools, you can enjoy them on any visit. The Oasis Aquatic Pool Playground offers added fun for all ages, even a waterfall.
The second pool and elevated hot tub is a bit more relaxing.
With the bar and grill, stay for the day and enjoy some Florida sunshine. You can rent a cabana for the day also.
7. Budget-friendly. Exceptional value is offered at either resort, Wyndham Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort OR Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort for an official Disney Hotel.
8. Rooms with a view. The towers offer a spectacular view overlooking Disney Springs and into Walt Disney World. You can even see fireworks in the background. I had this great view on my first visit, but unfortunately, this visit I was booked on the other side (view of interstate). Make sure you confirm you are getting the view. It was wonderful this summer and I bet it would have even been better during the Christmas season. This was from my summer visit trying to catch fireworks on my cellphone.
9. Director of Fun. Need more ideas for fun or entertaining the kids. There’s a reading area for a little down time, plus the Director of Fun can help you plan special occasions or events. Just contact the hotel.
10. Activities for all. Two lighted tennis courts, basketball courts, sand volleyball and a video arcade gives you all kinds of options for any free time. A state of the art fitness room is open 24 hours as well.
11. Great resort for families of all kinds. Adults only or a family with children, there’s something for everyone.
12. BIG NEWS for 2018. As a Walt Disney World® Resort and guest at either Wyndham Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort OR Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort you will beging to enjoy Extra Magic Hours during your stay in 2018. Each day, select attractions are open longer at one of the Walt Disney World® Theme Parks. Check the Extra Magic Hours calendar for a schedule.
It’s never too early to plan your Spring Break or summer vacation, just remember all the fun you can have here at the Wyndham Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort OR Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort.

Those Mickey waffles are too cute! Looks like a great place to stay and I love that they have the official characters at breakfast on select mornings. What a fun trip! We need to stay there the next time we take the grandkids to Disney.
Magic hours are great, they’re less crowded. This sounds like a nice place to stay wiht lots of conveniences for a vacationing family.
This is one of the 1st Disney Resorts we stayed at. The shuttles are EVERYTHING! It was so convenient not having to worry about finding a parking spot and we loved catching that last shuttle after the nightly fireworks.
I have heard wonderful things about this resort. Your photos prove how nice it is. Love the water area and who can resist mickey mouse pancakes.
Never I get down that way I definitely want to try hotel at Disney. They know how to spoil their guests and it is just fun to be able to stay right there on the property.
We usually stay on site when visiting Disney World. I’ve read that they offer the best accommodations. However, after reading this, I’ll totally check this place out before booking our next vacation!
I would stay here! I’ll look into it the next time we go. Usually we stay on property, but I wouldn’t be opposed to this hotel. It looks and sounds awesome, and we’d love seeing those characters.
What a lovely looking place to stay I love you get to meet some of the Disney characters and hey who wouldn’t want a delicious Mickey waffle for breakfast.
I had never had a character meal, believe it or not… and I love Disney! This is definitely something I need to do next time I go!
Ahh! The Mickey waffle! Who can resist the Mickey waffle?! What a cute and delicious breakfast item to start your day the Disney way!
I love the Mickey waffles. Too bad you didn’t hav the view of the fireworks during your last visit.
This is right on time, I’ve been shopping around Spring break locations. My 5 year old has been asking me to go to Disney for a couple of years now.
I heard a lot of good reviews about Wyndham Hotel though I haven’t been to Disney yet. Hopefully one day we will be able to stop by to Disney on the way to our road trip . Looks like you had a blast on this vacation.
The Wyndham Disney resort looks like a great place to head out to with the family. I loved the concept of Character breakfast, a great and happy way to start the day.
I want one of those waffles! I remember when we had our vacation in Texas, the kids love the Texas shaped waffle!
These all looks really good! I love the Micky pancakes!
I love the Mickey Waffles. Actually, I’m yet to go to a Disney Land park and would love to one day.
It’s a must do.
Okay, you have definitely convinced me to choose the Wyndham when we take our next trip to Disney World. Hopefully we can go in the Spring!
I’m so in! I really want to go to Disney… I went once when I was 4 and don’t really remember it, so I want to go again as an adult and maybe take my littles.
This is really a great location.
I have stayed here before and I absolutely loved it. Great accommodations and very friendly staff. I’m glad you enjoyed your time as well 🙂
I hope to go back again soon too.
Not a bigtime Disney fan, but it would be a lot of fun, to stay in this hotel, esp for my li’l gal!
Mickey waffle? I want Mickey waffle, like, right now, lolz!
The pool with the fountain at the centre looks awesome!
When our son was younger he actually enjoyed the roller coasters at the other place, but I’m becoming more of a Disney fan for all of the special events they have, especially at Epcot.
I love that Mickey waffle! I haven’t been to Disney in so many years. Definitely will go back to take my little one 🙂
I love to see how excited kids get.
This looks like a great place to stay when in Orlando. I totally love the Disney waffles. I know my kids would enjoy it. I am gonna check it out.
It is a fun place plus having Disney Springs right there and shuttles are great.
My cousin’s children are going to like it. A good place to stay with kids for a weekend.
Great for kids of all ages.
‘Director of fun’ sounds like a job title only someone associated with Disney would come up with. Sounds like an incredible, family friendly place.
What a great overview of this resort, the number of choices one has when staying by Disney World can get overwhelming so a post like this one that breaks down the benefits of a specific resort is very helpful. I especially love all the amenities you mentioned on site for kids such as the arcade and outdoor water area.
It’s a great place. And so convenient.
