Disney's Old Key West Resort Overview

 

A hearty "welcome home" is an appropriate greeting as you enter the gates of Disney's Old Key West Resort. This "home away from home" resort is designed for relaxation with its quiet, peaceful atmosphere. The 2 and 3 story bungalows are colored in soft, relaxing pastels of blue, pink and green, with tin roofs and gingerbread accents. This is reminiscent of the quaint villas of the turn of the century Key West. The lush landscaping with its flowering bushes, tropical plants and swaying palm trees are found amidst the waterways that wind throughout this large, spread out resort. In typical Disney style, the detail extends to shell and starfish imprints in the cement walkways and the "not so hidden" Mickey heads in the ornate white railings. Old Key West is a Disney Vacation Club resort, but vacant rooms are made available to the general public on a per night basis as with any other Disney resort.


Disney's Old Key West Resort Villas


The easy life is the theme of Old Key West’s villas. Furnished with plush armchairs and bedding, the rooms invite you to kick back and relax. A beach motif is carried throughout the rooms with muted pastels and décor accents of seashells and seagulls.

The Old Key West Resort features large living areas, with beautiful views of the Lake Buena Vista golf course, neighboring woodlands, or the waterways. Four types of accommodations are available here: Deluxe Studios, One Bedroom Suites, Two Bedroom Suites and the Three-Bedroom Grand Villa. Full bathrooms have ceramic tiled floors and storage area in the vanity under the sink.

The picturesque view can be enjoyed from the private balcony or patio. Handicapped accessible rooms are available here.
