It’s beautiful resort with cozy rooms, wonderful restaurant, awesome swimming pool and lots other things. Very enjoyed following your lens to watch😍❤️👍👍
Fantastic video! Loved the hotel and pool area. The waterfall was a nice touch, though I'd be terrified to go on any lagoon in FL. Very nice game room. Nice dining options too. Shula's looked amazing!
We've stayed in so many of the Disney resorts but I've never stayed at the Swan or Dolphin because I couldn't use my band for paying, etc. It's not convenient other than location if i have to carry a purseto the parks. We've walked by it many times but never went in to explore. The lobby and room are decent. The furnishings seems oddly dated. The pool and beach are beautiful. I'm surprised the exterior looks so 70s dated to me. The food looks great and priced as expected for a deluxe resort. We stayed in one of the deluxe resorts nearby and at that time they shared buses to the parks so time to get to the parks was really, really long.
It really is stunning to see the incredible designs and efforts that have gone into designing these wonderful resorts, it really has taken an immense amount of effort to create somewhere with such beauty and luxury!
Yes! We are amazed at the design that goes into these resorts. We stay at cheap hotels that are just normal everyday brick buildings often too. But these highly themed, well designed resorts are awesome to see. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hi. Enjoyed your video of these fine hotels. Our favorite has always been the Dolphin, at which we've stayed 13 times since June, 2007. We started going there as a part of my company's attendance at what was an annual IBM software conference at the Dolphin. Over time, we started staying over to go into Epcot and Magic Kingdom. Later, we started staying there in in what used to be our annual visits to WDW. We always considered it our "Disney Home". Basically, a deluxe hotel in a great location for moderate (or sometimes less) pricing. I am retired but traveled a good bit while working, and always stayed at Marriott properties. That allowed me to get lifetime Titanium status, which meant we normally got a nice upgrade at the Dolphin. Twice we were given one of the Presidental suites, but my favorites were the rooms with balconies facing Crescent Lake and Epcot ( wing of rooms closest to that area). We once ate at Shula's (on my retirement celebration trip to WDW). Our normal favorite was the Fountain. Loved their service, large portions, and "simple" and more reasonably priced food. I loved walking to Epcot via the Boardwalk. Thanks for this enjoyable video... God Bless
The Dolphin is such a great resort. We loved our stay there. You have been there so many times. That is really cool. I would love to see what those Presidential Suites are like some day. We ate at the Fountain on a previous trip and you are right - reasonable prices and good food. We do love how close it is to Epcot - and to the Boardwalk Resort where there are some other good restaurants. Thanks so much for watching - and for sharing your great memories of this resort with us!

Hey guys! What a nice place to stay-especially for work. The pool area is so pretty. Love that waterfall! Great choice on the swan boat ride. Wow those are a bit high for food, but it looked amazing! That is one pricey potatoe. Lol! Beautiful place! Such a nice tour!!
Always wondered about these two resorts... actually, never even heard of the Swan Reserve.. food looked good, Alice... so many restaurants available in close proximity... great overview guys... thank you!
We did enjoy our stay here. Lots to do here. And apparently it is locate right beside some big tourist attraction too. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment!
Great accommodation, looks very clean and smartly appointed. Nice pool! Great amenities Jack and Alice. Great choice of foods. Your meals looked great. The Dolphin Reserve is the far more impressive. But if you are not spending much time in the resort then the others would suffice. Thank you for a great tour. Have a great week Alice and Jack.
Enjoyed seeing the resort with you Jack and Alice. So many fun things to do there right in the resort. Not to mention the parks! Nice dining options. The Shula restaurant looked delicious but expensive. ($14 for a mac and cheese side?) Nice tour and review. Thanks for bringing us along!
You are so lucky to work while being in Orlando. The hotel looks really nice. Always enjoy your room tour, we are new to that content. Wow you guys had a great view. Rosalie would love to the pool and beach area. Oh man I love Shula’s. This is what I call divide and conquer with content. Great to be back here on TH-cam after getting back from our 13 Day Road trip.
We stayed here and loved it! We will definitelt be back! Super underrated place to stay at while visiting Disney! The food looks delicious but man that is expensive!
Looks like a great place for a convention. So nice to do the swan boat. That is a pretty big fitness center and so many great amenities. Thanks for the tour! All the best
thanks for sharing, I have never been to world disney but have really enjoyed your tour.Until I can one day visiting world disney, I have subscribed to follow your adventures.
I love this place as it is so close to Epcot and Hollywood. I used to do so many conventions here and when I was done, I ran to the parks. HAHAHA. Thanks for showing it. Looks like this room is updated compared to the room we were in over 6 years ago. LIKE 28. 👍👍👍👍
I Love the Dolphin & Swan Hotels! Been staying there from when they opened. You just can't beat the location! My hubs gets irritated he can't use his Magicband to get in the room, lol. Enjoying this Tour :-)
I have wondered how Blue Zoo is. Glad to hear it was delicious. Would love to try it some day. Shula’s really was delicious, if very expensive. Thanks for watching our tour. We are glad you enjoyed!
Orlando is a lovely city. There is so much to see and do in the area in addition to Disney. This hotel is a very nice compromise for people who don’t want to be surrounded by Disney characters. A very nice Marriott resort with close proximity to the theme parks. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
The view is very beautiful and wonderful. The United States of America is one of the best countries in the world. Thank you for the video, and I will follow all your work
I've always wanted to stay at one of these hotels. They are in such a great location. Greg stayed at the Dolphin before but I haven't. They look really lovely. Lovely room tour! I had no idea they had so many restaurants/food options. Nice that they are moderate resort prices for deluxe level accommodations. I think these are a great cheaper option that the Beach and Yacht club. Awesome review! :) Thanks for sharing! Sorry we are so behind, hope you are both doing well!
didn’t know these are Mariott hotels, neat fact! did the hotel rooms have a balcony or were those ledges related to the painting? nice rooms tour, how fun you got to take swan boat ride on the lake 🦢 thanks for sharing ✨
We've never gotten to stay here before and have heard so many mixed reviews! We're planning to go back to WDW in 2024 and this definitely helped us eith trying to decide which resort to stay at! We definitely have a lot of catching up to do!!! (Sp sorry for having gone missing! It's been a rough year for us 😅)
Welcome back! We were wondering where you were. I see some videos on your channel now that may answer that. We will go watch. Hope y’all are well. Yay to WDW travels in 2024!
I definitely need to give the Dolphin or the Swan a try. I always hesitate because they are still pretty expensive and I always end up deciding that I'd rather just stay in an official Disney hotel. The Swan Reserve is really expensive!
How handy having a chain hotel there so you can earn of use points and get those perks. Hmm, just checked looks like Hilton may have something at Disney Springs.
They are both very nice resorts. Contemporary is within walking distance of Magic Kingdom. Dolphin is within walking distance. So if you want to stay close to one of the parks more than the other, that may matter. Though they do both have Disney transportation available to get you to the other parks. The big difference to me is the price. Rooms at the Contemporary are often about twice the cost of rooms at the Dolphin. Both are great resorts.
These resorts (especially the Swan) have become my go to Disney resorts. So beautiful and relaxing.
We weren’t aware that they aren’t Disney properties. Always wanted to see them so glad you did this tour.
Wow this resort is top quality! I would stay there. It's expensive but well worth the experience of a lifetime. Yes the swan ride in the lake!
Thanks for the beautiful Disney Tour.👍😍 I surely would like to go back there again. Take care and enjoy 👋🙏🥰

Dolphin resort looks fancy, I'd love to stay in one of these one day. Thanks for the room tour, and the views outside look nice with the pool..

Beautiful resort tour! Nice garden and fountains! Nice images of the lake! 14:12 Like from Palma de Mallorca!
The dolphin hotels are stunning and so are your views from your room. I would def want to visit here someday
I haven’t been to Orlando since I was a child. I am a Bonvoy member so this would be a nice one to stay at.😀👍

Nice! I stayed at the swan years ago, although I didn't check out the hotel that much as I spent most of my time in the parks 🤣
We have walked through this resort many times, it is a great location🐸
Beautiful tour...Great video... thank you for sharing 👍👍 ( Life In Flip Flops channel 🇨🇦)
Damn nice hotel. Shulas is a little pricey but every once in a while you gotta treat yourself.
Fantastic huge place. I like the fountain inside. Sending love and full support. See you. Thank you❤️👍
Fantastic view from the room. We actually looked at booking here on our next trip but it was a bit out of our budget.

Watching this later tonight but thoughts of Dolphin vs Contemporary? IDK anything about this place as I’ve never stayed or even entered it.
They are both very nice resorts. Contemporary is within walking distance of Magic Kingdom. Dolphin is within walking distance. So if you want to stay close to one of the parks more than the other, that may matter. Though they do both have Disney transportation available to get you to the other parks.
