LOL! Reunion Grande is at the Ginn Reunion Resort about 6 miles due south of WDW. The Ritz-Carlton, Grande Lakes is near Sea World. The Rosen Shingle Creek is 2 miles from Pointe Orlando near the Convention Center (currently more-or-less on its own on fairly recently broken ground). The Ritz-Carlton and Rosen Shingle Creek are actually very close to one another.ok UK DEB, you win cant compete with those hotels, where exactly are they?
They might be budget, Wayne, but they look immaculate - I'd happily stay there!
Fab pictures, Claire - I can just about make out both rooms we've stayed in!
In post #18 there is a Pooh bear on the bed, he has been on every trip since DS was born, In 13 years he has been abroad 47 times. Xmas will clock up his 50th, maybe we should have a party to celebrate.
That is so sweet....I hope your DS continues to take him on his holidays for ever more.
I don't know why but I don't think I took a picture of the room or at least if I did then I must have deleted it! If you've got one Deb then could you post it please?
Here are a few from Animal Kingdom Lodge...
Thanks Claire, I will take some of inside the room next month if you don't find them, staying there for 3 nights after our cruise.
The Reunion Grande is a condo hotel, and you can choose either a one or two bed unit with a lounge/kitchen/dining area. At the Ritz-Carlton we stayed in a regular hotel room, although suites are available. We were lucky enough to stay at both (as well as Rosen Shingle Creek) shortly after they opened so, not only was everything shiny new, but we got unbelievably great rates. Reunion Grande still has that newness in its favour over the Ritz-Carlton. I absolutely adore Reunion (we also have 3 villa stays under our belts), but I would also happily stay at the Ritz-Carlton again. The service there is second to none.Debbie, I have always wanted to stay the the Ritz Carlton, but now my kids have got the Disney bug I find it hard to fit in.
But looking at your photos of Renuion Grande I may have to change my mind. What sort of room was that you stayed in?
How do they compare to the Ritz Carlton ?
