Parkway International Resort

The place was spotless, even by my very particular cleaning standards, and it’s close to everything. I asked Emely at the front office whether I could get a first-floor apartment because I’ve had three operations on my legs. She said she’d try to accommodate me, and she did. I’m glad I rented here and plan to come back in July.

We had two two-bedroom suites with full kitchens for a three-night Christmas family vacation. We only left the property for an event we’d already scheduled. The staff were amazing, even though working on Christmas isn’t something many people want to do. They made the holiday one we’ll never forget. Thank you for making it so wonderful.

The beds were comfortable, and the room had a full little kitchen plus a small washer and dryer, which was great. Some areas looked a bit dated, but the room was still nice. It’s about a 10-minute drive to all the Disney parks.

The staff were the highlight: friendly, easy to reach by text, phone, or in person, and eager to make our stay memorable. When we realized we’d forgotten mustard and mayonnaise, they even shared their own stash. My mom’s room was similar to ours but had a smaller kitchen; when she had trouble with the hot water the first night, maintenance quickly asked by text for permission to come fix it. We had a large kitchen, dining table, sleeper sofa, two bedrooms and bathrooms, and an outdoor living area with a screened porch. The on-site location isn’t fancy, but there are free basketball and pickleball courts, a pool, hot tub, and other amenities. I wish there’d been more parking, though we were in the main building and there wasn’t much to be done. It’s very close to Disney and centrally placed for SeaWorld, Universal, Disney Springs, the Boardwalk, and other resorts. We had a great vacation.
