I was unable to register for the room I had booked in advance bc In the frenzy of getting ready to go to the hotel my wallet got left and wasn't in my purse. So because I didn't have my physical card for the deposit I wasn't able to register. The clerk was very sweet and understanding and told me that they wouldn't be charging Groupon for the reservation and that I would receive a refund. Thank yo

Kissimmee, Florida: Easy Access to World-Famous Theme Parks and Major Orlando Attractions

Located on the banks of Lake Tohopekaliga, Kissimmee sits about 22 miles from downtown Orlando and just 16 miles from the Walt Disney World® Theme Parks. The world’s most-visited entertainment resort spans roughly 30,000 acres, encompassing four theme parks, two water parks, five golf courses, and the Downtown Disney® Area. There’s no shortage of things to do here: begin your day at Magic Kingdom® Park by boarding Space Mountain® Attraction, a rocket-shaped three-seater that climbs to 180 feet before entering a deep black tunnel and racing past stars, satellites, and constellations. After that, ride past the ghastly goofballs inside The Haunted Mansion. For dinner, head over to Epcot® to sample cuisine from Morocco, Mexico, France, Italy, and several other countries at the World Showcase. As one of the most popular family destinations in the world, sunny Orlando is home to other theme parks including Universal Orlando Resort and SeaWorld Orlando.

Those hoping to shake up the typical theme-park-dominated itinerary can head into downtown Orlando’s vibrant arts district. The neighborhood boasts venues such as the CityArts Factory, a multifaceted patchwork of gallery spaces, and SAK Comedy Lab, which holds improv shows five nights a week.

About a 10-minute drive north, you’ll find several cultural institutions surrounding Loch Haven Park, including the Orlando Museum of Art; the collection features pieces by Georgia O’Keeffe, Robert Rauschenberg, Ansel Adams, and Andy Warhol. The park is also home to the Orlando Shakespeare Theater and the Orlando Science Center, where you can take a rover across a simulation of Mars or race model cars down a 70-foot pinewood-derby track.

Very misleading I’m not even sure where to start. My boyfriend booked Florida for my birthday and booked maingate lakeside resort after looking at the photos and obviously assuming it was a nice place. Firstly the name is very misleading. On arrival we noticed it was very worn down but thought that could’ve been a nice thing as we found out it was one of the first hotels to be built so close to Disney. However the layout was very confusing. When we went into the first room it was absolutely filthy with pubic hair on toilet seat and in the bath. Stains on the bedding and bed itself we went back to reception to request a new room. Although the people were very helpful and apologetic the second room was horrendous. I only opened the door and a foul musty smell hit us in the face. While weighing out our options my boyfriend turned the air con on ( a luxury for us as we are from England so it’s not very common) when he turned it off a dripping sound was very noticeable, I thought at first it was the tap however when my boyfriend took his shoes off he noticed the carpet was soaking wet. Turns out the air con was leaking, obviously very dangerous as we then noticed mould spores we went down to reception again to be greeted by someone new who told us they was fully booked so we either stay in the damp room or the dirty room. I was absolutely appalled and they didn’t even come to look at the damp room. Third room was okay but essentially somewhere to rest your head and that was all. We noticed each room was lacking things the other rooms has eg first room has a microwave , second room had a coffee maker and third room had nothing. The place is very worn down and when walking past other rooms could see they had been stripped doors half open and nothing inside. Didn’t feel very safe as there isn’t much lighting when it turns dark. It’s a shame as it has so much potential, Walgreens on the site and lots of food places that are only a 10 minute walk away. Being so close to Disney as well had everything else of been better it would’ve been a great place to go back too. Pool was not maintained very well and lots of rubbish around too. Says there is a gym but only a small handful of equipment work and lots of stray cats around too.

Horrible and unsafe hotel. Not a resort at all!!!.Pictured are from 20+ years ago Horrible place to stay. Extremely run down and needs to be torn down. Pictures are from 20 years ago not recent. Feral cats everywhere. Rooms all stink of smoke and musty. Carpet is filthy and needs replaced. Doors are rusted shut and hard to open, hinges are rusted and frozen. Unable to close bathroom door, had to kick to get to open. Ceilings are bubbled and paint crumbling off. Pictures have a line of a watermark on them looks like it was flooded Light fixture in bathroom strobes when taking a shower. Tvs don't work well- very minimal channels with static. And the pools, you mean pond! I have never seen a pool any greener. No loungers or chairs either. But who wants to lay by a green pool. No King beds, store, pizza hut, or lounge or banquet hall. All closed down and employee stated it has been years since covid. Playground is unsafe and not usable. Putt putt is also closed down. Full of weeds and trees. Tiki hut is boarded up and also closed .Globe Lights around lighted paths to walk are all broken and the glass is on the ground. There are people that live there as well and they look homeless. Unsafe and not as described!! Most of the buildings have no room access with them being padlocked. County needs to step in.

Don’t stay here My experience at this so-called “resort” was extremely disappointing. From the moment we checked in, it felt nothing like a resort and more like a budget motel. As soon as we arrived, there were people standing near the entrance trying to sell theme park tickets, which immediately set the wrong tone. During check-in, I even noticed three raccoons outside the glass doors. The front desk agent who assisted us lacked any sense of hospitality—no greeting, no smile—just asked for my name and gave me the room number. We were informed about additional hotel fees that supposedly cover transportation to the theme parks, but not all parks are included (for example, Epcot is excluded). The continental breakfast deserves its own warning label: do not eat it. Everything tasted sour, there was no cream cheese for the bagels, and the man restocking the food was using his bare hands—no gloves at all. That was a clear health code violation, and we stopped eating immediately after witnessing it. The room itself was just as bad. It had a strong musty odor, a partially collapsing ceiling, and visible stains on the bed. It honestly looked like housekeeping hadn’t touched it before our arrival. We ended up buying our own cleaning supplies just to feel somewhat comfortable. They do allow pets here, but that also explains why much of the furniture looks worn out or damaged—clearly not being properly maintained or replaced. Overall, this property should not be advertised as a “resort.” Between the lack of cleanliness, poor hospitality, and questionable food safety, this was one of the most disappointing stays I’ve ever had.
