"The seeming isolation of the location of this 1,064-room luxury tower... lends the property an enviable natural tranquility that nearly all other Orlando mega-hotels lack."
Jetsetter
"Grand statement in Central Florida with five restaurants, a lazy river and a Greg Norman-designed golf course."

"The 998-room JW Marriott is one of the most luxurious resorts in Orlando, and not just because it shares a gorgeous golf course and spa with the adjacent Ritz-Carlton."

"This antebellum, Southern-style resort has two distinctive areas alongside a picturesque Mississippi-style waterway."
Rough Guide
"This resort
combines two Southern themes: the row houses and
cobbled streets of New Orleans in the French Quarter; and
the grandiose manors overlooking the Mississippi River at
the Riverside."
Zagat
3.5
""Evoking the grandeur of the Old South" and offering "serenity to the overstimulated", this "gem" is a "sprawling" resort set on "lovely" grounds in a "killer" location."
Fodor's
"Buildings in this family-friendly, moderately priced resort look like Southern plantation–style mansions (in the Magnolia Bend section) and rustic bayou dwellings."
