We had a great experience with all of the cast members. We especially enjoyed the drinks and the cast members at the Barcelona Lounge. My husband and I looked forward to sitting and relaxing with a Spanish inspired cocktail after a busy day in the parks.
Pros:
The Gran destino tower is BEUTIFUL and lots of great food and atmosphere.Cons:
The resort is huge. Not worth staying outside of the Gran destino tower. Way too much walking.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 02/07/2022

We stayed at Rancho a mile away from the main office far walk food expensive and not good rooms clean no room service only clean towels evey other day they dont even make the beds for the money we pay for the rooms if you get uber eats you have to walk a mile to the main tower how does a handicapped person do that you have to have good feet and back everything is so far away from each other. Al the workers are friendly they do keep the resort clean nothing to do. Your better off staying outside the park and renting a car instead of the bus business myself i would not stay there again not accomidating for me

Another great stay at Coronado Springs! We stayed in Cabanas in a standard room, very close to the bus stop and a quick walk to the amenities. Thankfully they serve Joffery's at the bakery and that is a quick walk to another bus stop. Quiet resort and very adult. We had drinks at the Barcelona Lounge and it has great art and style to just chill and relax. We had a few hiccups on our trip, thankfully the cast members and the resort coordinator were able to help us out. Rooms were clean and spacious with plenty of storage and places to put your luggage out of the way.
Pros:
Beautiful property Plenty of buses Clean rooms Helpful cast members Barcelona lounge was a great spot for drinksCons:

Our Jan 16th to 24th stay was amazing. The hotel is beautiful. This is the second time we've stayed here. Building 5 was where we stayed on Nov 2020 trip, and building 6 was for this recent stay. Side note....building 5 (near bus stop 2, which is the first stop when getting picked up to go to the parks, and the first stop on return from the parks---MAJOR BONUS when tired at end of night. Cast member at the shop remembered us from our Nov 2020 trip.
Location of hotel wasn't that far away from the parks, plus it was very quiet even with a convention group staying there at the same time.
Pros:
Beautiful hotel. Wonderful walking areas. Great food options. The staff.Cons:
Not really a con i guess....but be aware that returning from the parks, the first stop is building 5 area, bus stop 2. Then 3...4...and 1 (tower) is the last stop. Definitely plan accordingly as bus will fill up fast. They are packing the bus.Reviewed by Tinabeans Review Date: 01/13/2022

This gorgeous resort is both sophisticated and laid back -it was the perfect choice for my husband and I. Coronado really punches above its weight with deluxe theming and amenities for that moderate pricetag too. The range of eateries and room types at this particular resort makes it suitable for virtually all Disney visitors, with the Dig Site pool being a hit with young people, the lounges and lake bar super spots for the adults, and both motel- and hotel- style rooms at several pricepoints. Most of all, you really feel the nods to Walt at this resort in its beautiful decor.
Pros:
Views, theming, range of amenitiesCons:
Some folks find it a little spread out, but the bridges really help with this. Lack of non-bus transport options puts off some guests, but the central location makes the buses fairly easy.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/04/2022

Arrived 12/24 machine that has options for unsweetened tea had sweet tea spoke to manager 4 times during our 10 day stay wasn’t fixed they would get me tea but had to wait I’m not a soda drinker and do not like any sweetener in my tea very disgusting to have to keep reporting it and nothing done also need more food variety for quick service too tried to report on their website but no options unless you call and that’s reservation number may seem small problems to some but aggravating to not get drink when other members of family do and not like I didn’t report and still not fixed after 11 days
Pros:
Three Bridges Restaurant good but not open til 430 pmCons:
Food not easily accessible and especially drinks after you’ve bought mug need at least refill at each building not just at quick serviceReviewed by EmilyL Review Date: 12/04/2021

My boyfriend and I stayed in the Cabanas at Coronado Springs this past August. We really enjoyed our stay there! The hotel and property as a whole are beautiful. The rooms feel luxurious, with just a little bit of Disney flair in the decor. Despite all the up-scale vibes Coronado Springs has, there’s still plenty of fun and excitement at the large pool with the pyramid and water slide. We don’t have kids, but we really enjoyed that pool, too, as well as the relaxing “quiet pool” near our room. We had a delicious meal at Maya Grill and enjoyed walking the grounds and taking it all in. This hotel only has bus transportation to the parks, but it was not an issue for us. A few times, we were the only two people on the bus.
I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a hotel with a luxurious feel at a moderate price.
Pros:
Rooms with a luxurious feel, beautiful grounds, multiple pools, great dining optionsCons:

We stayed in the Gran Destino tower in late September 2021, and got a great room on the 15th floor at the north end of the building. The view was AMAZING!!! I watched Epcot fireworks as well as the ones at HS. We saw the monorail and the skyliner. I even enjoyed watching the buses now that so many are wrapped with colorful characters. The room itself was one of the best I've had at WDW, and I've stayed at almost all of them over the nearly 50 years I've been going annually. The walk to the bus stop wasn't bad, however I would have preferred that the tower had it's own bus. Parking was an issue. Maybe because of folks just going to the restaurants? I think there should be overnight guest parking close to the tower and restaurant parking in the former check-in area. As twice we got back to the hotel only to find no parking spaces except the valet spots. In all, I would highly recommend Gran Destino and Coronado Springs.
Pros:
the tower feels like a deluxe resort with great viewsCons:
buses get full from so many stops, not enough parking spaces for the towerReviewed by BrittS117 Review Date: 11/22/2021

Great Resort Choice! We stayed in a preferred room in October and loved this resort. There are lots of restaurants and we appreciated the large amount of options when we wanted to grab something to eat. We find the focus of many people to be at the offerings at the Tower, however we always ate at El Centro and found the food to be very good at Rix and the main food court. The resort is close to 3 of the 4 parks and we thought the bus service was excellent. The business center was super helpful sending some souvenirs home that couldn't be shipped via the gift shop. The resort although large, isn't as large as it seems in videos, and can easily be crossed by cutting across the bridges in the center lake. We had a fun hour break at the pool and going down the water slide several times. Although we do want to try out some other Disney resorts in the future, we will absolutely consider staying at the Coronado again!
