Best room for four
Family Suite. Separate bedroom and two bathrooms mean parents and kids are not sharing one room for ten nights.
Good for
Families of 4–6 with kids 3–12 on a Disney-focused trip and a moderate budget.
Think twice if
Food is mostly a food court, and Family Suites cost far more than the resort's Value label suggests.
