"Not our favorite Disney Resort"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed September 12, 2025 NEW
We love Disney, but I don’t think we’d return to this particular resort. Although some rooms have been updated, we did not have an updated room. Ours was tired, on the ground level, and had ants. The food options were good, and our son enjoyed the large pool. Friendly staff. The grounds were nice. One of the best features is the proximity to the Skyliner. I’d give it 3.5 stars if I could!

"Party of Five in a 5th Sleeper Room"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed September 05, 2025 NEW
This resort was a great option for us as we really enjoyed the Skyliner to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. We had a room that accommodated five located in the Jamaica section on the second floor with a view of the pond. No complaints there. This resort is older, but refurbished. If you want brand new this resort is not for you. The food options were to be expected at a Moderate resort. The Riviera has great food as well and is easy to hop to. We didn’t use the bus system. This resort does require a lot of walking and doesn’t have an elevator. If you have a stroller, small children or a person who isn’t able to walk the stairs I would not recommend this resort as it could become tiring. School aged children and up who are able to walk on their own would be fine. The bathroom is a little small and we didn’t care for the sliding doors that separated the sleeping area from the bathroom since they were noisy. The beds were comfortable so that was a plus. The AC Unit is pretty standard and there is a beverage cooler. I really wish it was a refrigerator. I recommend a sound machine, but we didn’t have any noise issues. The staff was helpful and polite as always at Disney. The overall atmosphere of the resort was enjoyable.

"Better Disney Resorts out there."

While Caribbean Beach has a great location due to skyliner access that’s about it. Walking from hotel room to hotel lobby was 10 minutes which in direct heat was not fun and exhausting. Bus transportation took forever due to so many internal bus stops within the resort.

"Convenient and Family-Friendly Stay at Disney’s Caribbean Resort"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed August 25, 2025 NEW
We chose this location mainly for convenience, with two Skyliner stations nearby in addition to Disney buses. Pluses: Each villa has its own pool, which was great for private relaxation. Good food options in the dining area. For quick pick-ups, I used the “order ahead” option. Sebastian’s offers a fantastic sit-down, family-style experience—come hungry! The main pool has plenty of activities and features for both adults and children. We stayed in the Aruba villas. Depending on which villa you choose, getting around can be a little tricky, but being close to the Riviera station allowed us to use the Skyliner to reach Epcot and Hollywood Studios easily. Extra nearby dining was also a big plus. The Room: Decent-sized and comfortably fit three adults. Bathroom layout was practical: one person could use the shower/toilet in private while another used the dual sinks. Plenty of storage space—our luggage fit neatly under the beds. The bed was slightly firmer than usual but still comfortable. We were on the ground floor facing a courtyard, which helped muffle outside noise. Notes: Like many older Disney Vacation resorts, this property could use a mild refresh/update. Overall, though, it was a pleasant stay at a reasonable price. If you’re looking for something more than a budget property, Disney’s Caribbean Resort is affordable and convenient without breaking the bank—always a plus when visiting DWR.

"Amazing stay at this beautiful hotel!"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed August 19, 2025 NEW
Stayed here for 2 weeks beginning of August as a family of 3 (daughter is 11) and what a place! Abundance of wildlife. Friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are big, clean and tidy. Rooms are serviced every other day. We stayed in Trinidad building 38. It’s about a 10-15 minute walk to main reception but if you enjoy the walk, it’s nothing. We liked this building as we were away from the hustle and bustle and near to the Spyglass which is amazing! Near to the ice and drinks machine and only a short walk (5 mins) to the laundry and pool area. A lovely lady called Hala in the eating area at Port Royal played a Disney Quiz with us on our last day and wished us a safe flight. Will definitely be back! Thank you for an unforgettable stay!
