"You can't pick a more dreamily convenient Disney hotel—it's a single monorail stop away from the Magic Kingdom, and four from Epcot."
Fodor's
"The view across the lake to the Magic Kingdom is spectacular, day or night, as you can see the colors change on the Cinderella Castle along with the fireworks." Full review

"This opulent Victorian-style resort features a magnificent five-story lobby topped by an ornate stained-glass dome."
Rough Guide
"Gabled roofs, verandas and crystal chandeliers are among the frivolous variations on early Florida resort architecture at Disney’s most upmarket hotel, complete with a full-service spa."

"Six distinctive “villages”, with six different Caribbean islands as their theme, comprise this inviting resort."
Rough Guide
"Rooms are located in one of six “island villages”, each with its own pool and beach surrounded by nicely landscaped grounds."
Fodor's
"A series of palm-studded "villages," awash in dizzying pastels and labeled with names straight from Pirates of the Caribbean, each with its own pool, form this Disney value resort." Full review
Gayot
"Spacious, colorful resort filled with Disney magic and nature's beauty."
Oyster
Mid-Range
"The mid-range Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort is a massive complex with 2,112 rooms and six separate man-made islands surrounding a picturesque lake." Full review
Frommer's
"Like Coronado Springs, this resort is sprawling with a central pond—1.4 miles around!—except there's an island theme." Full review
Lonely Planet
"A Disney taste of the islands means painted beds, pastel rooms, a food court that looks like a street festival during Carnival and a pool with a vague resemblance to ancient temple ruins." Full review
