Sleek monorails breeze through the heart of the lobby, whisking guests to Magic Kingdom Park and Epcot. Leisure activities abound when you are not in the Disney Parks.

Good value compared to direct from Disney as the magic bands are included. The money off food / drinks vouchers, which are included, were not particularly useful as not accepted anywhere we went. Great customer service and advice on the Orlando theme park scene.
