With a room renovation underway, accommodations at Disney's Old Key West Resort are fresh and serene. Designed to reflect a South Florida scene, rooms display linens, artwork, accent pillows and accessories that feature images of seashells and the Florida Keys.
Located in 56 pastel two- and three-story buildings, accommodations are among the most spacious and affordable in the Disney Deluxe Villa category.
Newly remodeled one-bedroom, one-bathroom villas sleep up to five guests, plus a child under three in a crib, and feature a Jacuzzi tub and a shower in an adjoining bathroom off the master bedroom. Renovated two-bedroom, three-bathroom villas sleep up to nine guests and an infant. These units are available in two configurations. The first layout features two beds and a bath in a second bedroom. The second, a lock-off setup, adds a kitchenette, a bathroom and a door to the outside. Three-bedroom, three-bathroom Grand Villas accommodate up to 12 family members, boasting bonus features like an extra dining table and a second floor.
In villas, open and expansive kitchens adjoin inviting living rooms in what may be the homiest Disney Vacation Club accommodation layout. Families will appreciate easy-to-clean wood floors, large dining tables and kitchen islands that double as TV cabinets. New couches and love seats offer more eye appeal than they do comfort. Thankfully, sofa mattresses are significantly softer than the ultra-firm couch cushions. The new sleeper chair is exceptionally supportive in both the sitting and the sleeping department.
Villas with one or more bedrooms feature dedicated laundry rooms containing full-size washers and dryers. All accommodations feature a Pack 'n Play and a balcony or a patio. High chairs are stocked in all villas, and bed rails are complimentary upon request. Hi-Speed Internet service is available for a daily fee.
Deluxe Studios sleep up to four, plus an infant. In addition to a kitchenette with a microwave, a toaster, a coffeemaker and a mini-refrigerator, these accommodations contain two queen size beds. Most other Deluxe Disney Villa properties feature the sofa bed and traditional bed combination in similar room-types. For Studio guests, laundry rooms are located in all four resort pool areas. Use of the machines is complimentary.
Besides peaceful golf course and canal views, of particular note at this property is the generous size of the patios. If the weather is fair, these inviting outdoor sitting spots can serve as an extension of living space, allowing older relatives some extra elbow room while the kids play or watch television.
For maximum convenience, request lodging near the Hospitality House -- which will afford you easy walking access to the resort's main pool and recreation complex. For a quieter but still entertaining experience, consider a stay near the Turtle Pond Pool. Most buildings lack elevators, so request a ground floor villa if you're traveling with stroller-age children.
