Just back from a visit to WDW. First time staying at the Gran Destino Tower at the Coronado Springs resort. We were unable to book an accessible room but was staying club level so reached out to Signature services and they said they would make a note of the need and reassured us that a toilet riser and transfer bench if necessary.
By 10AM on the day of our arrival we received the notification of being assigned Room 933. It had a roll-in shower. I failed to take any pictures but will do my best to describe the room.
The room is designated "club level" but is not on the same floor as the club. The tower has a number of club level rooms that are not on the club floor. However, Room 933 was located just off of the elevator bank and the elevators are the new smart ones that you touch a screen to indicate the floor you want and it tells you which elevator (A-F) to get on. We never had any problem accessing the club or having a too crowded elevator. A small downside was in the room you could hear the elevator ping every time a door opened. It did not bother me at all and became unnoticed background noise but my niece had trouble blocking it out.
The room does not have an accessible entry button. Despite having club level rooms, the resort is a moderate. The accessible entry door buttons rooms I have encountered in WDW have all been in deluxe level resorts.
The bathroom was large with a double sink in the roll-up vanity. On the vanity was an assortment of H2O Sea Salt products (shower cap, hand lotion, mouth wash, after sun care gel and bar soap). The toilet seat was the 20" tall one and had proper ADA compliant grab bars.
The shower seat was a sturdy mesh bench. The shower had a regular height rain forest shower head and an adjustable, hand-held shower head with a long flexible hose. The shower had the wall mounted large dispenser of the H2O products, gel soap, conditioner and shampoo.
The room had two queen beds. The beds were lower to the ground so not able to stow suitcases underneath but good for wheelchair transfers. The curtain pull rods were longer and had a large plastic circle on the bottom end that made them easy to open and close while seated in a wheelchair.
Two nice touches. First, was a moveable bench that we relocated to the wide entry hallway by the door leaving a niche perfect for backing my chair into at night for recharging. Second was a and conveniently located outlet on the long cabinet that housed the beverage cooler and a desk area and dresser drawers. The outlet was ion the top back of the cabinet right next to the spot I put the chair. It was easy to reach, i.e., not hidden behind a piece of heavy furniture.
The desk spot had a small, armless chair and their was a small lounge chair in the corner. That chair swiveled and I thought it was too low for me to get back out of so I never sat in it.
A word about the buses. The Coronado Springs resort is large and spread out. The only way to the parks is by bus. There are four bus stops to cover the resort. The Gran Destino tower is designated bus stop number 1, however, don't be fooled, the tower stop is the last to be picked up and the last to be dropped off. There is always the chance when the bus pulls up the two accessible spots will already be taken and you will be left behind. Because we were not trying to do rope drop or stay to park close, it was never an issue.
However, one morning when we arrived at the bus stop their was a
ECV waiting that said they had just been left behind. The driver said he would call it in and while they were saying that, a totally empty bus pulled up and picked us both up. Additionally, the one night we left the Magic Kingdom after the fireworks but well before park close, there were already two EVCs lined up when the bus pulled up. But a second bus pulled up before those
ECVs were even fully loaded and that bus driver hopped out, came over to us and reassured me that he was going to pull up and load me first as soon as the other bus pulled away.
