Updated Review of Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
By Dave Shute
Yesterday I published updated materiel on Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort based on my July visit–our seventh here.
The review begins here and includes the following pages
- An overview of Saratoga Springs
- Theming and accommodations at Saratoga Springs
- A three page photo tour of a Studio and a One Bedroom Villa (the two combined being a Two Bedroom Villa):
- Amenities at Saratoga Springs
- Dining at Saratoga Springs
- The Pools at Saratoga Springs
There have been only minor changes here since my last review–i.e. very light changes to the rooms, mostly bed linen.
All the room photos are new…
…and I’ve also updated all the floor plans.
The order of the material also now matches how I’ve been restructuring these reviews lately, with the overview of the accommodation options here preceding, rather than following, the photo tours.
All the great new restaurants opening at Disney Springs (detailed in Chapter 7 of the book I co-author) have made Saratoga Spring’s location within walking distance of Disney Springs a feature rather than a bug. This should make the resort much more appealing to returning visitors.
For first-timers, however, I’m still not keen on it–Saratoga Springs still has weaker kid appeal and lower convenience than Disney Vacation Club alternatives.
Moreover, the rooms, though in quite good repair, are now a generation behind many other DVC spaces, which have added larger flat screen TVs, a fifth sleeping spot to their Studios, and more power points.
Check out the updated review–it beings here.
