The hotel

Bringing the Caribbean to Florida, you can expect endless fun at Disney's Caribbean Beach. Split into 5 islands: Barbados, Jamaica, Martinique, Trinidad and Aruba, you can expect loads of pools to relax in, and so much for little ones to do. Head to one of the lively markets, chill at the beach surrounding the lake, or spend a few hours at the Fuentes del Morro pool, with slides galore, water cannons, and a shipwreck play area. Heading to the parks couldn't be easier - jump aboard the Skyliner gondola and you'll be in Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios in no time!

For the price & location you can't beat it at Disney. We've stayed here a few times and have had good experiences each time. It's by no means a high end resort or hotel - as smallish room and window A/C. But, super close to the Skyliner for fast transport to Epcot and Hollywood Studios.

For a Disney Property we have high expectations and this stay did not live up to it. The groups and pool 10/10 but the room was worn. The tub had a few stray hairs in it, a little bit of mold spots on the tub, around the faucet, under the soap holder down the grout , and the shower pressure was lacking. The twin bed Murphy bed sheets must have… Read more
For a Disney Property we have high expectations and this stay did not live up to it. The groups and pool 10/10 but the room was worn. The tub had a few stray hairs in it, a little bit of mold spots on the tub, around the faucet, under the soap holder down the grout , and the shower pressure was lacking. The twin bed Murphy bed sheets must have been forgot about because there were used sheets left on it, the water bucket had left over water in it with plastic bag drapped over it. This is not what you expect from a Disney property and we are Disney fans. We ended up getting a $100 credit and checking out after 1 night stay when we were planning to stay 4 nights. Read less

We stayed at Disney Caribbean Resort with our family for our magical Disney vacation. We had 3 rooms all located in the Barbados building which was an excellent location, close to the lobby, dining, shops and main pool as well as the Barbados pool which we used often. It was very convenient staying at the Barbados building as it was close to the bus stop to the theme parks and Disney springs as well as being able to go for coffee and fill our refillable Disney cups at the restaurant. Watched our Philadelphia Eagles WIN the Superbowl and we celebrated at the Banana Cabana that was filled with Philly Fans, it was great had lots of fun. Our bartender Adam did a great job and kept us well hydrated :) We were thankful everyone was in the same building as it's a large resort. Also, it was just a short walk to the Skyliner across the road was a bonus. You can see the nightly fireworks from Epcot which we watched on the bench by the Barbados building. The private transportation we used for the week was Merie's Orlando Express they were great and they even picked us up and dropped us off in the parking lot of our Barbados bldg. It has a great vibe of the Caribbean with the theme of the resort and decor, loved it! Shout outs to the excellent customer service provided by the staff Megan at the front desk, and Megan and Milton who are gems at this resort that truly LOVE their job and it shows, very personable and helpful. Thank You!! Thank You!! Thank You!! Read less

I just got back from staying here for six days and I highly recommend this resort! I did my research and, basically, stayed here for the convenience of taking the skyliner to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. It's so convenient. I, also, read up on which of the six different areas to stay in that is closest to the skyliner. Jamaica and Aruba are where you want to be if that's your main priority. Building 41 and 42 are, literally, a 2-3 minute walk. They have a bus stop close by too if you want to go to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney Springs or a water park. The buses come pretty regularly so you're never waiting long. Additionally, they have internal buses that drive around the complex. The first few days I would take the internal bus to get to the lobby/main pool area until I walked it in the daylight and saw it was only about a five-minute walk. The rooms are great too. They have a little table with two chairs, a large flat screen television, refrigerator, great water pressure in the shower, Alexa and their shampoo and conditioner are amazing. I even looked online when I returned to purchase them, and they are exclusive to Disney properties and cruises. An added bonus is that you can see the Epcot fireworks each night at 9pm! There are two negative comments, but the positives certainly weigh out my two negatives. The signage related to the building numbers are inadequate, at best. If you're returning at nighttime and it's your first or second day it will be very difficult to find the right building. Plus, if you're on the second floor there are only a couple of places that have stairs to the second level, and you have to walk around looking for them. There aren't a lot of lights, too, at night so you need to be familiar with your building. The other negative is the dining and gift shops. I should say shop as there is just one gift shop. It has, pretty much, everything that you would need but isn't that large and the quantity of merchandise is lacking. I don't care a lot about food choices but the menu on the one market is limited. There is a regular restaurant, however I didn't go there at all. There is, also, a grab and go type place but, again, not a huge assortment of items. I, also, love that each area has its own pool if you don't want to go to the main pool. The property app is great too! I used it to open the door on my room, use it for any and all charges, find the bus schedule and many, many other options. All in all, I highly recommend this property and think you will be very happy with your decision should you stay here. I should have led with this.....all the cast members are amazing! Friendly, informative and happy to help with anything you may need. Read less
