    Beautiful Resort with Great Food

    Super fun resort. Great transportation to the parks, and it’s right next to the boardwalk which makes for a great place to walk around and view the fireworks. Plenty of amenities, had a great time at the pool. Plenty of events going on and looks beautiful at night. Service was really helpful and it’s a great place to explore.

    Love This Amazing Resort

    Wow where to start with this superb Hotel/resort located at Epcot in the Disney Complex. This hotel is perfect for those who want to stay at a luxury hotel within the Disney World environment. The Hotel boasts a few excellent Swimming Pools with plenty of sun loungers as well as fantastic entertainment. The Hotel contains a number of excellent restaurants, and we had breakfast/dinner at the majority. The food was always delicious, served at a perfect temperature and was a reasonable price. The hotel also contained a superb coffee shop and Disney Gift store. This hotel was perfect for those wanting to access all Disney sites as well as Disney Spring’s. It was possible to walk to Hollywood Studios and Epcot, with buses provided to all other locations. It was also possible to get an Uber at a relatively good price to the Universal Complex. The room itself was spacious, clean, and provided excellent views of Magic Kingdom in the distance. The lightening and firework shows, on display were excellent. We were very lucky to stay in this special hotel.

    Great location to Epcot

    Very convenient location. Our room was very nice. Hotel is huge which makes for a very long walk to our room. Loved being able to walk to Epcot and The Boardwalk. Also, took boat over to Epcot which was a very nice perk. Fuel is a great spot for coffee in the Dolphin. Also, the fountain had delicious sundaes!

    Swan was good but Dolphin room BAD/sewage

    I have stayed at the Dolphin quite a bit but this last stay was bad. Luckily it was only a one night addition to our trip (we were at the Swan for the week prior). The room appeared clean and everything orderly at the Dolphin but when I returned at night the bathroom smelled like sewage. It was late and I had already waited a long time to be able to check in for the room so I shut the door after getting ready for bed. Next morning the bathroom smell was bad. I also was woke up by truck beeping, loud glass recycling and trash can emptying at 5am. I didn’t expect a spectacular room or view when I booked a standard view but being able to sleep past 5am was expected. The sewage smell made me decide to skip my shower (it seemed like a plumbing issue). I have another longer stay in summer but I’m considering canceling it because a longer stay would have been bad. I think I will. I have been a loyal Swan and Dolphin guest but now I’m worried.

    Trash experience. Go elsewhere.

    Absolute scam. I spoke with someone over the phone who told me if I cancelled they would get me a refund. When I called back after Thanksgiving, I was told they couldn't refund me. I disputed with my credit card and lost. So now I am stuck with a $600 bill for a vacation I never took because THEY TOLD ME I COULD CANCEL. Don't waste your time or your money, better hotels in better spots. Trash.
