Disney's Old Key West Resort

We are just coming to the end of our third trip to Old Key West and have loved every minute. As a family of four with two teenagers we opted for a one bedroom villa for the extra space. They are huge and the kids loved having their own beds with a large double sleeper and a single sleeper in the lounge area which they both said were very comfortable. Our double room was beautiful with a huge bathroom, including a large walk in shower and a jacuzzi bath. You have loads of storage space and a separate laundry room with a washing machine and tumble dryer. Everything felt really clean and well looked after. The resort is a very welcome sanctuary after the craziness of the parks and we enjoyed spending time by the pool and taking the boat to Disney Springs. We’ve had a great time and would definitely love to come back.

Stayed with some friends for a quick two-night stay - we've always wanted to try Old Key West and it's a cute resort. The villas are some of the largest on Disney property since this was the original vacation club resort - the four of us had plenty of room and a large balcony overlooking the golf course. It was a fairly stormy weekend so we didn't visit the pools but Olivia's offers tasty food and The Gurgling Suitcase is a must stop for an afternoon beverage. Due to earlier drought conditions the boats between OKW, SSR, and Disney Springs weren't running, but we were able to use the buses to get to where we needed to be. Overall it's a charming resort in a good location - the only issues we encountered were the usual ones related to ongoing staffing shortages.

The cast members at this resort were all very friendly and willing to assist or suggest. Each day their counsel enabled us to be front row for the daily rope drop at the park we were attending. This resort is surrounded by the Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. We ate one night at Olivia's. I love curry, but, did not want tofu. At no extra cost chicken was substituted. Thanks to our server Nancy. We also enjoyed not meeting any quests that thought they were entitled. OKW is a Disney Vacation Club resort. One night we sat on the rocking chairs looking at the water, watching kids play checkers with over sized pieces while enjoying a drink from the Gurgling Suitcase Libations and Spirits.

The room was not as clean as other Disney resorts we have stayed at. (It can happen) The disappointing part was the response by the staff. J***** at the front desk was extremely dismissive and not helpful at all. (He seemed bothered that I had a complaint.) Not what I expect from a Disney Cast Member. Resort was beautiful otherwise.

I like the relaxed vibe of Old Key West resort. The studio room had 2 queen beds (many properties have now converted one bed to a murphy bed) but I prefer 2 "real" beds in the room. I like having a mini-fridge, microwave, toaster, & coffee maker in the room because I can easily have a cheap breakfast in the room before heading to the parks. This is my go-to resort at Disney. This time I was in 2915, which is a 1st floor studio. This room did have some road noise from Peninsular Road because it lacks the buffer of the parking lot, but it was still in a nice area of the resort being fairly close to the bus stop & within walking distance to the Hospitality House. As a bonus, currently Disney is having extended evening hours for guests saying in Deluxe resorts (which includes Old Key West.) That was a big perk for free as we had lower crowds in those 2 extra evening hours on Monday (EPCOT) & Wednesday (Magic Kingdom.)

What a fantastic resort. From the front desk staff to the housekeeping personal, they make you feel welcome and at home. The resort is clean, and the rooms are spacious and modern. It is truly a hidden gem on the Disney property.

My wife is a long time DVC member and this was our first time bringing our daughter to our previously favorite resort. We were incredibly disappointed to find the windows had black mold. There were no equivalent rooms available so we lost a day changing resorts. The kitchen amenities were also old and on their last leg which is small in comparison but still shocking at a DVC resort. Animal Kingdom Lodge is a better option for similar value.

We stayed in the 2 bedroom unit. It was spacious, the beds comfortable and had all the comforts of home. We were happy to get early entry time for the parks. It was also convenient to Disney Springs. We rode the boat and also took a nice walk to Disney Springs. I'd definitely stay here again.

I only wish we could have stayed longer! We asked for a mobility unit and Walt Disney World Old Key West resort came through!!!! This place was wonderful and not a long walk to a pool and bus stop for the parks and not very long to get to the feature pool and restaurants! We love Old Key West resort at Disney and this was our first time in a luxurious 2 bedroom condo with all the amenities of home and a patio to watch the wildlife and golfers. Amazing time here!
