Fodor's "A pair of 56-foot-tall sea creatures bookend this 25-story glass pyramid, a luxe resort designed, like the adjoining Swan, by world-renowned architect Michael Graves." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Home to Tod English’s BlueZoo restaurant, a must no matter where you stay, this whimsical resort is best known for the tremendous dolphins that sit atop its exterior."
Rough Guide "Sister hotel to the Dolphin... from which it’s separated by an artificial lake and beach, and likewise whimsically decorated... equipped with every conceivable luxury."

"Centered on an "enormous, pyramidlike" main building, this "stylish" Michael Graves--designed resort is "within walking distance of Epcot"."
Frommer's "The ceilings are a little bit low, the staff a little bit distracted, but the location never quits." Full review

Frommer's "This resort caps off a development of more than 1,000 timeshare villas around a pretty 10-acre lake at the south end of Disney property." Full review
Fodor's "Despite being within Mickey's gates, the entry to this family-friendly resort hotel meanders through pristine Florida forest and bamboo-laden landscaping." Full review

"The Wyndham Grand is a ‘hidden’ luxury hotel that’s close to Disney but often overlooked." Full review
