Hitchens Island Tours and Activities

The apt is very clean and new. The location of the property is centric to Disney parks; we Uber everywhere, between 10-18 minutes to the attractions. There is a shopping center with Marshalls, Keke’s diner; Sports shops, Other chain restaurants like Texas Steak Road or The Olive Garden in the same area. We did not use the pool or the gym, but there is also a nice, clean outdoor area with grills, tables, pool etc. The only complain is the address in our reservation was main to the Leasing Office and we spent some time trying to figure out where was our apt, due building was not specified in the confirmation. We call the phone number for the host and he was very friendly and explained us how to get to the right unit.

This place was fantastic to stay at. We had a two bedroom cottage, the facilities were fantastic. All bedrooms ensuite, TVs in every room. Full kitchen and living room. Hot tub. Great pool nearby and sunset walk is five minutes walk away. They had live music in most nights and there is a lot of different food and drink places there.

This is our second time staying here and we really had a nice time. The two things that were most troublesome was check-in and check-out times. Check in time is 4 pm. I think that’s a little late. We arrived between 9 am and 10 am and had to wait until 330to get a room. Check out is 10 am. I did ask for a late check out and the latest they would let us check out was 11:30 am. My other gripe is that they are cashless. They have a Starbuck’s on site, cashless , but they charge you a fee for using your card. I found that to be quite maddening. The whole resort is cashless. There are a lot of families with little kids so if you don’t mind having kids do cannonballs next to you while you’re lazying down the lazy river or trying to relax in the hot tub, you’re good to go. This resort also does not offer a shuttle to any of the parks or the airport. It’s an easy drive to Disney and Disney Springs. It’s about a 20 minute drive to Universal. The ice cream stand has a delicious brownie sundae that you have to try! It’s a nice resort and if we were to ever go back to Florida, and now knowing the things I didn’t know before, I would go back anyway.
