fingers to burgers and ice-cold fruit salads, sunbathers and swimmers
flock to Calypso's poolside locale.

As the sun begins to fade, the Parrot Isle Lounge is the perfect
place to unwind. Adjacent to our main lobby and overlooking the

wine list of vintage and early 1970 selections. It also features
the excitement of a wide-screen TV for games, and the soothing sounds
of piano music.
In-suite Dining
Of course, in addition to our wide array of dining establishments,
perhaps the most relaxing way to enjoy a meal is in the comfort
of your own suite. Not a problem - guests have our in-suite dining

Reviews
"We stayed in this hotel in August 2003 for 18 nights and
it was really great. The rooms were clean and having the extra living
room with TV was a real bonus. We didn't have to lie still with
the lights out a 8'oclock so that the kids could go to sleep - which
we would have done in a normal hotel room. There was a fridge which
was handy to keep drinks cold and a microwave if you wanted to "cook"
anything. We were on the 8th floor and there was never a wait for
lifts.
We used the Cafe Largo for breakfast which was fine - usually muffins,
fruit, juice tea and coffee. We also had take out chicken in the
evening which was good value and tasty.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the free form pool with
75 foot water slide was fantastic. We have stayed in Orlando many
times and for us this was by far the best hotel. It was only 5 mins
drive to Disney and there were plenty of resturants in the Kissimee
area. we loved it so much we will be going back again in 2004."

"This is a great hotel complex. We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa
and were overwhelmed! There is a jacuzzi tub in the master (king)
bedroom and two full baths besides. With a washer and dryer, it
was very convenient. Location was very good, close to everything.
Unbelievable value! We found the restaurants to be not overly expensive
and the food of good quality. The pool was very nice. For the price
I don't think you can touch this hotel. Wonderful and will definitely
stay there again." (4/03) Rick Wolff
"My husband had
stayed at this resort once before on business. He ended up at the
resort quite by accident. At that time, he stayed in one of the one
bedroom villas and he loved it. The next time he went down for business,
we were able to go with him, so we stayed in the villas. They were
very comfortable, clean and big!! They were decorated nice as well.
The service wasn't bad either. My husband was sick before we even
got to Florida and ended up in the hospital. Somehow the resort found
out and we returned from the hospital, there was a beautiful get well
card and gift in the room. Luckily we had all the comforts of home
(washer/dryer/kitchen/three televisions/vcr) because Dad spent the
next few days recuperating.
dining: We only had breakfast, but it was always plentiful, good and
free!!
With full breakfasts included, a pool with a slide and a waterfall
and its proximity to the parks, it is a great value. The year before
we were booked for the Caribe Royale but cancelled to stay in the
villas at the Disney Institute for $450 a night. We wondered what
the heck we were thinking. We paid $259 a night at the CR. The prices
have probably gone up, but we will stay there again. (This year we
are actually staying at the Port Orleans - Riverside. We paid $84
a night and I a m attending a convention at the Coronado Resort. We
want to give Disney another chance to compare to the CR.)" (6/00)
