TIPS FOR DISNEY'S OLD KEY WEST RESORT

Some one-bedroom homes have a slight variation that can make a big difference if your party is large: There is a second door to the bathroom through the laundry room (see layout on page 73) that avoids the master bedroom. If this is important, request buildings 30 or higher at reservation and again at check-in.

Buildings 62–64 are the newest—they opened in early 2000. These are also the only buildings that have elevators.

Renovations to this resort brought a sleeper chair to all one-bedroom villas, bumping capacity up to five guests in those villas.

The three-bedroom Grand Villas are luxurious (and expensive). They are two-storied with private baths for each bedroom plus an extra bath for guests using the sleeper sofa. They have all the amenities of the other vacation homes, plus a 32” television and a stereo. They’re very popular with families, so reserve as early as possible.
