I had no trouble finding Liki Tiki, as I know the area reasonably well. I have stayed in similar resorts before and this one did not disappoint. The apartment was large, with a lounge, fully equipped kitchen with washer, drier, full sized fridge, large microwave, stove, coffee maker, blender and everything needed for preparing meals, if so desired. The apartment was immaculately clean, probably the best cleaning job I have ever seen! We had two bedrooms, two bathrooms. We were on the 4th floor, 800 building, with a view of the lagoon. The amenities are excellent and well maintained. Our 10 year old grandson loved the small water park, pedal boats, mini golf, all of which were provided free of charge. There are always lifeguards on duty, so children can be allowed to play in the water with confidence. The poolside restaurant, Shipwreck Sallys, is always open and the food is good and reasonably priced.
The internet connection was free and very reliable. The security at the gate made us feel safe at all times.
Yes, the resort is located at the bottom end of US192 but is very close to all the shops you need, if you have a car. There is a Target close by and the shops at Cagans Crossing, on US27, are just around the corner. There is a Dennys and a Publix within walking distance, if you are the walking type!
Overall, a great place. We will stay there again next year and will recommend to all our friends.

Hello and thank you kind reviewer! We love 5 Owl reviews over here at Liki Tiki Village, and I must say we love it even more when your review is dedicated to providing good, useful information for potential future guests to help them shape their decision. Everything you mentioned here should help qualify Liki Tiki Village Resort for anyone who is seeking to vacation with a big family who needs ample room, hotel conveniences, resort amenities, and clean accommodations - all in a perfectly situated gated property with neighboring commercial staples, within a short distance to all Central Florida attractions. We here on the management team particularly like that you were impressed by our housekeeping efforts. We truly go above and beyond (not just saying that) to ensure the very best first impression, and continuing through with any housekeeping services you may request. The reason I say we are not just saying that is because we really do try harder. We apply more effort into housekeeping and engineering for a villa-style resort than any other such resort in our category. Without getting too specific, we manage the property not as a whole, but in smaller "village" segments - so that each segment has its own team of managers, inspectors, maintenance staff, and housekeepers. This keeps everything nice and tight - and the end product is always fruitful. I also want to say we appreciate your acknowledgement of our lifeguard team. They are an operation easy to be overlooked, but integral to the safety and well-being of our guests as they navigate our 220,00 gallons of erupting water fun. We train and accredit them to the highest degree because we believe the skill and experience shows itself. And with the complexities of Liki Tiki Lagoon's many water facets, we have at least 4 lifeguards always on stand and at full attention. Please know that I will pass on your remarks to the department heads (Housekeeping and Recreation) so that they can see their efforts make a difference and are appreciated. I want to thank you again for such an informative review. I also want to thank you for referring us to your friends. We would love for you to bring them with you next time you come. We cannot wait to host you here again at Liki Tiki Village Resort!
