Pros

  • Very affordable rates, often under $150 per night with discounts
  • Includes on-site perks like Early Entry and free Disney transportation
  • Refurbished rooms are a significant upgrade from the original design

Cons

Disney's All-Star Sports Resort

  • Frequently hosts youth athletic tournaments creating noise and crowds
  • Decidedly early-90s feel in the lobby with faded athlete photos
  • Food court quality is consistently below expectations
  • No Skyliner or monorail, bus-only transportation to parks
  • Common areas can be very loud especially at night

JW Marriott Orlando Bonnet Creek Resort & Spa

  • Shuttle to Disney parks is slower and less frequent than Disney buses
  • No Early Entry or on-site Disney booking advantages
  • Not as Disney-immersive as staying in a Disney-owned resort
  • Far from all theme parks, requiring a car or shuttle every time
  • Parking fees apply on top of already high nightly rates
