We recently returned from a week long trip at the Wilderness Lodge. This was our first time doing Disney, and it blew us away! We booked a villa for the first six nights, and a room at the lodge for our last night only because the villa was not available. We booked the villa by renting/buying DVC points. The front... More

This was a quiet place to stay. The architecture in the main area was lovely. The gym, walking trails and pool were great. Maid service was wonderful, except for the kitchen floor tile needing a buff & clean. The in room laundry made our stay much better. The only negative was that we had to wait past the check in...

I stayed at a two bedroom villa for five nights on DVC points. We had a fourth floor corner room which has a slightly different layout than the other two bedroom villas. I am not sure if the total sq footage differs, but the living room/kitchen is more of a square than a rectangle. There are some extra windows in... More

We stayed here on for one night on our Disney Vacation Club points before moving to another mid-grade Disney hotel. We had been to the Wilderness Lodge before, but this was our first time staying overnight at the Villas. We had a very friendly staff member check us in, which went very fast. She was nice enough to bring my... More

I'm not really sure where to begin... With so many family members raving we decided to stay 4 nights here and 2 nights at Disneys Beach Club Villas. No one mentioned that you didn't park Infront of your villa like Sarstoga Springs or Old Key West. Huge down fault when you have three children and a vehicle filled of food... More

We stayed at the Villas at Wilderness Lodge in April of 2013. Our kids are 5 and 7. What a great property! We loved the theme in this hotel. It felt like Adventureland in the Magic Kingdom. The resort is a large lodge surrounded by evergreens and twinkling lanterns at night. There is a stream and bridge running through the... More

The hotel itself is beautifuland the location is great, we especially enjoy the boat over to Magic Kingdom and also like to sit in the gorgeous lobby with a drink in the... More

We stayed here in a studio for a long weekend and loved it! The rooms are comfortable and well-appointed. Don't come here expecting luxury and polish, this is a well-themed resort and the cast provides that Disney service. Be sure to check out the nooks and crannies. The Carolwood Pacific room is a great place to relax and have some... More

I just finished up a stay in the Villas and it was a very nice relaxing stay. The Villas has the Iron Spike room that is great for quiet reading or a good game of checkers on the provided tables. The main lobby of the Wilderness Lodge as just awesome! One semi secret is the nooks with fireplaces that overlook... More

When we visit Disney at holiday times, the Villas at Wilderness are our first choice. The Northwest atmosphere is just right with Christmas decorations. The villas are removed from the main lodge, with a quieter, homier atmosphere, with all the amenities of full-service hotel just steps away. The staff is friendly and attentive. The studio size is just right for... More
