“Not my cup of tea”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 26, 2012 NEW

Very good..... for families with kids. Not for me! I'm a person who doesn's like big crowds in a very toeristic environment. I won't spend my money there. It cost you big dollars and the value is not everywhere that good. However there are some bars/restaurants which are good and more "high end". For kids and their parents it's awesome... More

We visited Downtown Disney with a family group that included great-grandparents, parents and a 4 year old and ALL enjoyed the visit. Parking is free so you can go and check it out at no cost! Free activities included a splash fountain area for kids to get wet, amazing Lego sculptures, free boat rides to the different sections and side... More

“Where everyone seems to go.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 22, 2012 NEW

I go here to walk around and eat. It's typically crowded, but the impression is that it is the place to walk around just for fun. The place to buy Disney stuff. More

“Free and Fun”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 20, 2012

If you want to have the Disney effect at no cost take a trip to DTD. It is fun to visit the Lego area where kids can play and build. There are plently of snack shops and shopping. Kids can wear their suits can splash in the splash pad free. bring a towel. More

“Ghiradelli and Disney Store”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 20, 2012

These were my two favorite places at Downtown Disney. They have a movie theater where you can dine and watch a movie. I would not recommend the irish restaurant unless you know that you enjoy authentic irish food as it is different than your average irish restaurant in small town USA More

“Nice area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 18, 2012

Lot's of shops, food, and places to enjoy a nice shady tree while watching the boats go by. We tried to eat at "Bongos", a Gloria Estefan restaurant but the hostess gave us the runaround and we waited too long to get seated. Needless to say, we left and ate at Planet Hollywood and had the best burger ever. More

“Straight FUN”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 18, 2012

My first taste of Disney Theme Park was Downtown Disney. Now before I go further I should warn, since going to Downtown Disney is free, to do things can get pricey, Which is why we decided to 'window shop' and just take in the atmosphere. We landed in Orlando on Monday afternoon, and did some shopping. Since we had no... More
