and we loved it! I know a lot of people say that it is huge (it is), but I honestly don't think the walk time to the main pool/Artists Pallette is any farther than when we stayed at OKW (in fact, it was shorter being at Congress Park---about 4 minutes we timed it!!) The Downtown Disney walk was 8 minutes--we timed that too!! We truly had a great time!! We loved the resort!! We had a long talk about it, and we have loved EVERY resort so far for totally different reasons. The only DVC resort we have not stayed at yet is BWV, only because we have never been able to get in yet!
I was worried about the main pool being too small, but it is wonderful!! We found that there were plenty of chairs, tables, etc., and this was pretty great being that we were there during Easter Week (April 6-12). The pool itself is beautiful, and big! They had a DJ with lots of games and music Thursday-Sunday, very fun. The Congress Park quiet pool is beautiful too. We took a stroll over to the Grandstand Section and saw that pool as well. The pool area is themed very well, but the pool itself was much smaller than the Congress Park pool. Very cute though!
Artists Pallette was excellent! Very good food. And let me tell you about The Turf Club Bar and Grill Restaurant. Wow, we ate dinner there on Easter Sunday and DH and I absolutely LOVED the food there. It was excellent, I would highly recommend it! DD even asked if she could have the childs pizza without the chicken and have bacon instead and that was not a problem at all. Very nice.
We only had a studio, but the room was very nice. We had a first floor in Congress Park that walked right out to the pool with a view of Downtown Disney. It was perfect!
Did the parks for 5 days, 1 day at Typhoon Lagoon, and 2 pool days. I miss it already!
I would definately stay at SSR again!
