Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando Review 2021 and Staying Off Site for WDW

Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel for a visit to WDW. Disadvantages would be ride share park pickup and drop-off lines if arriving at park opening and closing, and if you have to worry about car seats and strollers for young kids as opposed to staying on-site and using Disney transportation. Another would be that the pool is geared for older kids. Another disadvantage is that Disney resorts guests have extra hours available at the parks starting October 1, 2021. Advantages are that the resort has so much to do and has a fabulous pool for older kids, and ride share to the parks didn’t take any longer than taking Disney transportation to the parks as far as the duration of the ride itself. Lastly, the price was great using points for our stay and definitely worth the use of your points.
