I recently stayed at the Hilton hotel in Lake Buena Vista and had a brilliant holiday there. Lake Buena Vista is adjacent to the main disny park so this makes it a ideal location for those wanting to visit both the disney parks and other attractions within Florida. If you are going to visit Florida it can be quite daunting choosing a hotel from the hundreds on offer but I would definitely choose one in the Lake Buena Vista area.
LOCATION The hotel I stayed in was less than 5 mintues walk away from the downtown disney complex that contains all the shops and resturants as well as the night time entertainment. Some of the hotels in the disney park are in the actual theme parks but you will still have to travel by bus to the other parks and if you do not eat in your hotel you need to drive or catch a bus to downtown disney. All the hotels in the Lake Buena Vista area are within easy reach of both Downtown disney and a strip of other shops and resturants. We found it nice to be able to go to the parks and then go back to the hotel and just walk to dinner without having to worry about driving or getting the bus. As the hotels are also near to many other resturants such as TGI Fridays, Red Lobster and many fast food resturants there are many different choices for dinner.
SERVICES All the hotels in Lake Buena Vista can be still be reached by the special disney buses. The disney buses run from the hotels to the parks everyday at regular intervals. It can be expensive getting around Florida as public transport is sparse except for cab services. The disney bus network is brilliant for getting around the four disney parks (Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios) and the two water parks (Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach) and the hotels offer additional buses at peak times to Sea World and Universal Studios and the other big attractions throughout Florida. All the hotels in Lake Buena Vista have links with the parks so you can get tickets at special prices. The disney parks offer extra hours to the disney hotels and guests at Lake Buena Vista can take advantage of these too, this is especially important in peak season as ride queues can get very long. Lots of the hotels in Lake Buena Vista have disney themed attractions within them such as merchantise stores and meal times with the disney characters.
EXTRA INFORMATION There are many advanatages to being in Lake Buena Vista but one of the main draws for many people is the fact that the hotels are generally slightly less pricey than those in the disney complex. If you are travelling to disney with young children the disney hotels are great but for older guests Lake Buena Vista may be more suitable as the hotels are nicer and have more adult entertainment such as murder mystery evenings.
If you are planning a trip to Florida I would definitely recommend the Lake Buena Vista area as it is still very convient for the disney attractions and you can take advantage of all the extra offers but you ca also enjoy lots of other entertainment in the surrounding area.
Advantages: Location, comfort and quality Disadvantages: None
We stayed at the Lake Buena Vista in March 2007 and had a great time.
The location is excellent, close to all major routes to just about anywhere in central Florida and only minutes from DisneyWorld, Premium Outlet malls, other attractions, shops and restaurants this makes a great base for visitors with a car. Getting around Orlando form here is simple and it is great to have somewhere quieter to return to after a hard days touristing.
The area ... ...was spacious and clean and the furniture was suprisingly comfortable. Our suite was well equipped.
The staff were friendly and helpful and we had a great time. We woul dcertainly consider Lake Buena Vista on our next trip...and I believe that is the best recommendation I can make. ...

Advantages: Spacious suites close to Disney Disadvantages: A few miles from International Drive
The Hawthorn Suites are at 8303 Palm Parkway, Orlando, Florida in the LakeBuenaVista (Walt Disney World) area. Located with the excitement of Orlando on the doorstep the Hawthorn Suites Hotel has wonderful amenities, a warm comfortable atmosphere, and pleasant surroundings. As you would expect from any American hotel a large car park is available on site.
The all-suite hotel is marketed to be a "home away from home." Spacious one and two bedroom suites have a separate living room and bedroom area with a full kitchen. In addition, all room rates include a full, hot American breakfast buffet served daily, a social hour from Monday to Thursday evenings, and a complimentary scheduled shuttle service to the Walt Disney World theme parks. The suites have over 100 standard rooms laid out to give a really spacious feel and the rooms are ...
Advantages: Great day for all swimmers and non swimmers Disadvantages: If you dont take care you can get very sun burnt.

LOCATION OF TYPHOON LAGOON
This themed water park is located at LakeBuenaVista. This is a city in Orange County, Florida, and is mostly known for being home to the Walt Disney World Resort.
The address is 1534 W BuenaVista Dr, LakeBuenaVista, FL, United States.
You will find that most hotels will run free transport to all of the Disney attractions. So if you are staying in a hotel it is worth asking at reception.
THINGS YOU WILL NEED
You will need to take these with you on the day,
A swimsuit, this is needed to go into the park, if you don't have one you will need to buy one.
Sun cream, this is a must as you will burn because you will be in and out of the water, you may not feel like you are burning on the day but the day after you will certainly feel it.
Cameras, yes you can take cameras at your own ...

Coupons
Sad, I know but everybody uses coupons. You can usually get them by the sackfull everywhere. They?ll give you up to 25% off your bill for food, etc.
Food
Best places to eat are Dennys, IHOP, Waffle House, etc etc.
Bear in mind that the fast food in the parks is comparatively expensive compared to outside the parks, and is pretty often fairly poor in quality. The restaurants in the park are mainly very nice but not cheap.
