Disney Saratoga Springs Resort

Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort





The Disney Saratoga Springs Resort is conveniently located within walking distance to the Downtown Disney Marketplace. This Vacation Club resort is absolutely huge and it is set up more like an apartment complexe rather that a normal hotel.

Lobby at the Saratoga Springs Resort Disney saratoga Springs Resort

The resort has one main central building that houses the lobby where you'll find the front desk and concierge desk. There is also a small gift shop where guests can purchase groceries and a "grab n go" type of restaurant called The Artist Palette.

The decor of Disney Saratoga Springs resort was influenced by horse racing when back in the 1800s was in its heyday in upstate New York. Guests can choose to stay in the comfort of a studio, or one, two or even three bedroom units. These units are housed in apartment like buildings that are spread out around the property all located overlooking the Beauna Vista Golf Course.

If you want a more back to nature experience, then you might want to try out the new three bedroom tree house villas. Now this is my style of camping. This three bedroom unit is actually built around a real tree. Most kids and even adults find this to be a very fun and exciting way to stay and play while on a Disney World Vacation.
