    Discover the crown jewel of Walt Disney World Resort at this Victorian-inspired Resort reminiscent of Florida's golden era. Here, the entire family can enjoy Disney at its grandest, with lavish décor, spectacular views and impeccable service. Cool off in the huge Beach Pool and breeze down the 181-foot-long waterslide or perhaps pamper yourself at the world-class spa, offering all kinds of divine treatments. Make sure the kids take an afternoon siesta as every night the Electrical Water Pageant, a floating, lighted procession of 'sea creatures' takes place on Seven Seas Lagoon followed by the evening fireworks light up the sky over Cinderella Castle.

      loved epcot however we was disappointed twice with epcot, we visited and got a taxi instead of driving so we could have a drink around the world and when we got there there was sign up saying we’re shutting at 5:30pm we only arrived at 4:45pm so we had to leave, then when we came again we got stuck on guardians of the galaxy ride and the time we got off was 8:15pm and half the food vendors was shut so we could only eat at 3 places before the fireworks so we left hungry

      well it was magically we ended up going to magic kingdom twice as it was far too hot to stand in the queues but we managed to see the parade the first time and then the fireworks the second time

    • 5 stars:

      great water park, loved the wave pool and the great rides but again maybe more sprinklers are needed as the floors are too hot and you need to wear your shoes up to the rides

      loved hollywood studios, it was lovely and clean and has lots of characters out and about, queue times weren’t too bad either however the day we went we missed half of the indiana jones show as it was thundering and it was the last one of the day

      great water park, lovely and clean nice and easy to enter. Has lots of music on, only downside is the floor is far too hot so you have to wear your shoes up to the water rides and come down with them in your hand

      I love the details amd themeing in this park, the star wars area is a must. We also loved watching the shows, Indians Jones and the Villains show in particular were brilliant.

      Kerry Dentith reviewed Disney's Hollywood Studios 12 Jul, 2026

    • 5 stars:

      My personal favourite water park, the waves in the wave pool are epic and my teenage boys had hours of endless fun in here. The lazy river is also great for relaxing around the park. There are fewer shaded areas to relax in at this park so I would advise arriving early if you're in need of a shaded spot unless you are willing to pay extra for your own cabana.

      I can't visit any other Disney park until I have been to magic kingdom to walk down main street to get a view of the castle. We love the variation of rides here as well as shows and meet and greet with characters. We were here between end of June and beginning of July and didn't queue for more than an hour for any ride. Disney are so well organised and efficient which really helps on scorching hot days as noone wants to be stood out in the heat in mile long queues. Also, the evening firework show is a must, and dont forget to wait til the end to see Tink fly from the castle. Tickets bought from attraction tickets were downloaded directly to our phones ones payment was complete. Really simple and memory maker included meaning we got all our snaps from around the park easily added to our Disney app.

      Brilliant park to wonder around the world taking in a little bit of the different countries available. Lots of places to eat or snack and some lovely rides. Guardians of the Galaxy is a must! Tickets easily purchased from attraction tickets and added to our disney app once downloaded with no issues. We also got a great discount price ordering during their black friday event.

    • 5 stars:

      Lovely park to visit, the Avatar area is great and you should definitely ride flight of passage. We also loved the shows at this park particularly going into the tree of life to watch to Zootopia show. Expedition Everest was also a favourite. We had a 14 day ticket bought from attraction tickets at a great price and easy to download and add tickets to our Disney app for easy access in and out of parks and memory maker included so we have all our pictures from around the park sent to our app for us to download.
