Muy buen hotel claro que iria otra vez la habitacion super libda

So beautiful, clean and spacious. Room upgrade was a nice surprise

The location is perfect for visiting both Disney and Universal. The shuttles don’t run many times a day, but Uber makes it easy to travel at other times. The staff was friendly, and the room was perfect.

Check in was a mess - it took over 45 minutes because they never entered my reservation in their system. Even after all that, they didn't offer an upgrade or anything for the inconvenience. And they forgot to give me my VIP amenities! Then on the last night, there was a COCKROACH in the room. They came to spray bug stuff in the room but so gross. We got it on sale, so I guess you get what you pay for. But based on the reviews, I had expected it to be nicer.

Great hotel and customer service. Great Staff I will go back and refera; to friends and family. Great experience

Room was excellent. Sports bar was nice but lacked vegetarian options. Free shuttle to parks was a bonus. Some construction & housekeeping mess but manageable. A very pushy sales staff & experience left a bitter taste & kept our overall experience from being excellent.

Great! So many amenities and the staff was very helpful

We had a beautiful villa with a pool practically in our backyard. Thx grounds are beautiful and we were minutes away from shopping, eating and the parks. The staff was wonderful also.

Staff were pleasant. The entire property was clean. Housekeeping did and amazing job and the gym is super super amazing!

Excellent hotel and close to all attractions. We didn’t really need a vehicle since the hotel had so much to do and had complimentary shuttle buses to take the theme parks.

There's so many things to do. I will definitely come back to stay.

Everything was amazing and the staff was great and so accommodating. I called to request a lake side room on a higher floor and they did it no questions asked. Only thing we didn’t like is the walls are basically paper thin, we could hear everything from next door and every time a door opened it sounded like it was in our room. Other than that we will definitely stay there again.

After check in, two employees rushed us to the hospitality desk. The worker there was trying to get our name, address, social security number, and annual income for a "free breakfast, VIP card, and a Mastercard gift card". We said no and he was incredibly rude and persistent. I had read about this being a timeshare property so did not want to waste an hour or more.on my vacation sitting through a high pressure sales pitch. He was unprofessional when we refused, and refused to tell us how to get to our room.

Close to Everything for a comfortable Vacation. Love the game room, pools and room was exceptional.

Lori, thank you for your review of Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your room accommodations, as well as our theme park shuttle service. We will certainly use your feedback on our Drafts Sports Bar & Grill to continue to improve our services and guest satisfaction.
