This hotel does offer transportation to the ticket and transportation center at MK and Epcot for a fee. Also any of the good neighbor hotels include early morning entry to the Disney parks!!
Dev, I’m staying here next week based on this video..just called front desk and they said they offer free transportation (drop off and pick up) to magic kingdom…I’ll update when I get back to advise my experience.
I really feel this is a niche that a lot of Disney vloggers dont show enough. A stay in a non Disney hotel that is safe, cheaper but still accessible to the Disney magic. As a lot of people around the world are struggling financially, this content is important to stay relevant. Thank you so much guys 🙏 Love from London UK ❤️
We stayed at that Homewood Suites for 3 months last year when we were looking to buy a house. We had 2 adults, 2 9 yo kids and a chihuahua. It was wonderful! We loved the kitchen. They took very good care of us during our extended stay! We recommend it to everyone! Thanks for highlighting it!!!
Dev and Bianca, both of you have been a source of inspiration to begin my health journey. Both mentally and physically. I have been feeding my body what it needs and exercising for a month and a half so far. I have lost about 8 lbs but most important I have gained a clear and happier mind. I just want to thank you. You both bring such joy through your videos and inspiration. 😊
We stayed at the Fairfield Inn at Flamingo Crossing several times last year. Prices in February were as low as $119, free parking, free breakfast, brand new hotel. Flamingo Crossing is a hidden gem!
It was sooo nice to see Bianca give her '2 cents on the room. I know she is a little shy, but Bianca did so good and she looked comfortable on camera! Like ya PC but MUCH rather see and hear from Bianca more! ;)
Bianca is so beautiful!!! Dev is such a lucky guy!!! Dev’s got GAME to land Bianca.. she is a CATCH!! Forreal good for you Dev and Bianca❤what a lovely young couple!
Hilton is also my "go to" hotel brand as well when I don't stay on Disney property. You really can't go wrong as they have great room options, convenient locations and friendly staff.
I am 100% going to stay at that hotel on my next vacation because of this video. It looks so clean, spacious & beautiful and the price is right! The restaurant seemed lovely, too. Great job on this video!
You and Bianca make any hotel high end. ❤You both are the most elegant, attractive park and travel vloggers. Love your takes on hotels and cruises the most - honest and thorough. Looking forward to more cruise vlogs.
We stayed at this resort with our dog when it first opened up. Yes, it’s very close to WDW. Breakfast was just ok, but maybe got a little better. Super nice staff and pool bar was good. We stayed in a king suite. Very spacious.
Love these videos Dev and Bianca! Can’t help but think you guys were hinting at shopping for cribs at Target 👀. Maybe not lol but either way I’m loving it! Keep giving us great content!
This is very helpful! We’ve been to Disney several times, always on site, but now that I have a teenager, she likes to have her own space. DVC 1 or 2 bedrooms are so outrageously priced. Coming from Canada, we are already paying almost 30% more with the terrible exchange rate. It’s nice to see other options for families.
Thank you Dev for doing budget friendly videos. I love to travel and do it as cheap as possible. I ll never be able to afford high end accommodations and cruises and don’t care that I can’t. Always a pleasure to have Bianca in a video.
Thank you so much Dev. This is exactly what I asked for In your last video. As these are the only kinds of places our little family of 4 stays in! Our next reservation in Sept is at Regal Oaks CLC World Resort! We got 3 nights for under $400, and it’s a Town Home type resort! You are correct, eating just 3 meals in our resort saves us over $400 bucks. So it’s completely worth it, since we are on a tight budget and just want a fun vaca without the worry!
I hope you get a Target sponsorship soon lol 😂 Target was a lifesaver for us when we got to Orlando on a later flight and just before the tropical storm hit back in November. We used same day pick up. They had everything we needed for back up in case of a power outage.
Thank you for this video! It was amazing! Homewood Suites Hotel is amazing. We stayed at one across from Disneyland last year, and it was an amazing choice. I love that you were able to get to Steakhouse 71 for dinner! It is an amazing restaurant. Loved your review!
That hotel looks lovely. I love that there is a stovetop since I'm not a microwave gal 😉Definitely one I would consider if returning for a WDW visit. Good for you two hanging out to get to absorb the experience!
We stayed here last year when we dropped our daughter off for her 7 month DCP. It is just down the street from the DCP residence halls Flamingo Crossings. We also stayed at the hotel next door when we came to visit her during her program. It is also a Hilton group hotel. They are both great hotels and they share the wonderful pool between them. Awesome review Dev! Keep up the great work!
Stayed at the Homewood Suites Lake Buena Vista at Easter for 14 nights (Visiting from UK). Hotel served as a great base at a reasonable price, kitchenette facility was great, rooms and hotel were clean and staff were great. Having stayed at the Signia Bonnet Creek previously we knew Homewood Suites were going to be a different offering but at less than half the price, those wanting similar level need to appreciate pay difference. Overall great hotel and would stay again. Would be good to do direct comparisons between Hilton and Marriott offerings in Orlando. Great video as always 👍🏻
I LOVE Homewood Suites! It’s so nice to have a good breakfast included, a table to sit down at (not eating on your bed) and a separate bedroom. I also recommend the one by Orlando Theme Parks. Random but, If you ever go to New Orleans, the one on Rampart is in a great location!!
Dang PC dev looks skinny not in a bad way. Look good man guess the working out suits you well. Wonderful video showing us nearby area great hotels & more.
Nice accommodations. Glad you were able to give us an in-depth look at what they had available. It would have been nice to see how in-depth the grocery selection was at Target since the room has a full kitchen. Target does not exist in my community at all. Waiting for your next hotel review!
Man i love staying at these hotels!! I must say ever since you showed this spot some videos back this has been a go too!!! And i can use my hotel points this stay is great. I was a little upset they started to charge for parking when they first started they didnt. Thanks for the great video guys!!!
I am so glad you both enjoyed Steakhouse 71. We ate there for our first time in April and it was amazing. I am a picky eater and I managed to clear my plate, lol. By far one of the best restaurants on Disney property.
My family and I had stayed at a hotel on international drive Orlando Florida before the pandemic. It was very nice had a kitchen and living room area. When hotels have a kitchen and a living room space its called a suites. We enjoyed it and had so much room for three adults. Thanks again for sharing Disney Hotels.❤
I don't know if it's luck Dev, every meal we have had at Steakhouse 71 has been amazing and the service is always just as good! Whatever they are doing at that restaurant is working and needs to spread to others on property.
Okay as soon as you said that price I'm now seriously considering booking here! My mom misses Florida, especially the gulf, so this place sounds perfect!
Thank you, this looks like a fantastic place to stay and we will consider for our trip in January. However, with it not offering free shuttles to DW or Universal I saw from your comment, I will have to see if Ubering everywhere will make it the best place for us to stay personally/financially. Thank you for great review!
Hi Dev and Bianca We just caught this video and subscribed to your channel This hotel is a great find! So Happy you did this video We definitely are looking into this hotel when we revisit Disney. We enjoyed your Halloween Disney video too. Thanks ❤️
I love Steakhouse 71 and their service is impeccable. The last time I was there, I asked to speak with the manager to let him know how good the server was
Absolutely one of my favorite hotels I've ever stayed at! I've done my fair share of old, dirty motels, so now I'm really picky about maintenance in hotels. I had zero issues at the Homewood. I wish we could have stayed longer just to use the kitchen! 😂 We also stayed at the Fairfield next door for $90 a night last year. It was clean too, had a GREAT bathroom, and had more breakfast options (but no hot tea?!); however, there were quality issues like our door not closing without a fight and an extremely loud AC that put it a half step below the Fairfield.
I love the fish tank updates Dev! I'm considering starting a small (freshwater) one soon myself! But honestly having a saltwater tank has been a bucket list item for me for awhile now!
Homewood Suites are among the best in the Hilton portfolio...most times, my parents would use their HHonors points to stay there. I love Target being near by so I can go find my Hot Wheels.
I have never known a Homewood Suites to charge for parking as they are mostly business travel hotels especially since it is a relatively empty parking lot with Target and Walgreen's that offer free parking. You may also want to consider staying at The Grove which isn't too far and offers 3 bedrooms and a water park.
Excellent video Dev please please please some more of the same… exactly what is needed, if you could do it around universal as well gives excellent options when prices are high and people want to save money on accommodation. Top job again
I'm okay with doing "easy" meals on vacation. Sandwiches, microwave dinners, soup. Nothing fancy generally quick. Definitely cheeper than eating out every meal.
Hi Dev, im currently staying at this hotel and just a few minutes ago i went to ask about the person in charge of the disney parks ticket booth. They told me they dont do this anymore, dont know if it is just temporary, but they are not offering this service currently. Thanks for the video!
Shhhh! Don't tell my secret hotel!! We have stayed here several times while going to Disney (also next door at Home2suites)....the uber rides are usually 10 to 12 bucks to the parks and so much more convenient than shuttles in my opinion..when you look at the Disney Budget resorts ,this hotel trounces them!! With all the extra money we save we go to several Disney dining experiences.
I’ve stayed at the Marriott Towneplace Suites at Flamingo Crossings over the years. Very affordable and also has a kitchen, free breakfast and a nice pool. Highly recommend it
Awsome area Ben & Jerry wow don't see those often around here. Very impressive hotel & suites. What a price for what you got!!!👍👍Target with a liquor store what else can you ask for? Thanks for that coverage.
Really appreciate your staycation vids. So informative. Have you ever stayed at the Dolphin? I’m taking my grandson in December. Not cheap, but way less than a Disney deluxe. Which I will never pay for again. Best of luck in your future endeavors.
Hi Dev, the Homewood suite is great, I am a Diamond member and like the amenities Homewood offers especially like you the kitchen. I also highly recommend the Hilton Vacation Clubs, in particular Parc Soleil. Their one bedroom units are huge, very comfortable and I usually get it for under $175 unless it’s a peak season.
Great video of the Homewood Suites. We usually stay near there at the Holiday Inn Orange Lake resort. Very crowded around there so we do head up the 429 to "get away"...lol We may need to check that out. I used to drink the Premiers also, but switched to the Evolve Plant Based Protein drink. You should give it a try. The Premier is higher in cholesterol and I need to keep that in control..lol
