As far as some other reviews I couldn't tell whether other guests were civilian or military. This was our second visit to SoG. We got in on the May special which made it abit cheaper but even without the special its alot cheaper than a deluxe Disney resort. We arrived in late and the counter clerk let us know that... More

If you've been in the military forever and you stay here, you'll be right at home. All of the people you find ubiquitously at every military instillation can be found as a microcosm here at Shades of Green. We drove from Ft. Bragg down to WDW, and when we arrived at the hotel, we thought we hadn't left post. The... More

I would stay here any time, any season. In reading some lesser reviews, I felt I had to reply. I have stayed here 6 times with up to 16 people! Each trip was more enjoyable than the last. No, they do not offer a 'free' shuttle to airport. But Tiffany Town cars and Mears will do the job at a... More

My family usually stays in a condo and goes back and forth to the park and have the intention of cooking meals to save money. (yea right!) After many recommendations by friends, we finally decided to try Shades of Green and WOW were we impressed. It was very relaxing to know there was a bus available to take you anywhere... More

My husband and I recently stayed here while he was at conferences, and we had a wonderful time! The rooms were so big, and our room (Palm rooms wing) looked over the golf course which besides being beautiful was surprisingly quiet. The buses to Disney were so convenient as well. We can't wait to go back with our family! Wonderful... More

Thanks to my son, our whole family of 12 from all over the country was able to stay at this magical hotel on a tiny budget. April Military Child rate was spectacular and included breakfast. The grounds of this hotel are breathtaking and the space inside and outside our adjoining ground floor rooms were wonderful playgrounds for our handful of... More

We had to get to the hotel late and when we got there we were in love! Beautiful property, everyone was so nice and the rooms were really big at a great price! It's awesome to take shuttles everywhere. We had an awesome trip!!

We stayed here for a week and were very impressed. The staff was friendly, the amenities were endless and the overall atmosphere was great. We have a three year old and between the pool, the little playground and everything else, she was quite entertained. Getting to disney is a breeze because of their daily bus shuttles and if you choose... More
