A wonderful, beautiful resort. It's a similar layout to many of the resorts, that is, there are several buildings and the restaurants, lobby, and main meeting area is centralized. They also have a magnificent pool / kids area.
Let's start in the main lobby. There's a great painting above the fountain with a wonderful registration area.
Down the hall are several of the eateries. We have the Pepper Market, Rix Lounge, and Maya Grill. There is some seating outside by the lake. Quick story about the Pepper Market that I know some people know, some may not. Gina told me they were going to the Pepper Market and I was welcome to join them. At the time, I was still trying to learn everything I could about Walt Disney World and didn't know it was a quick service restuarant. I honestly thought that the FBO+1 was going to an actual pepper market. My bad.
Inside the lake, one of the local residents was waiting for a free hand out...
Let's stroll around this resort for a second in route to the pool.
Now, one of my favorite pools. There is a grand pyramid next to a play area for kids that resembles a Mayan site. Stephanie would not want to play here. Can you guess why?
Thanks for visiting! Where shall we go next?

Coronado will always have that special place for us. We stayed there on our Honeymoon as the first time ever staying somewhere other than a cheap-o special motel off property. It's the only Moderate we've ever stayed at and we've been back I think 3 times since, but it's kinda out of our price range again. Even the Values are barely in our price range anymore. Wah!
ReplyDeleteI love the Pepper Market and I've had friends stay here before. I'd like to try and stay here at some point. Looks real nice.
ReplyDeleteThe Pepper Market is the most awesome quick service that I've ever experienced at a resort, and the Maya Grill is fantastic.
