The Fountains

We have stayed at the Fountains several times and each time found it to be very clean and well maintained. It is a luxury resort. We stay in a superior 2 bedroom, which is 1278 square feet, is very roomy and very comfortable. Our 2 grandchildren enjoy all of the activities at the pool, and are very happy to just stay at the resort. We usually take them to just one park each year, and they never ask to go to another one. We have found The Fountains to be a very family friendly resort, but adults can enjoy it too. There is a poolside bar with food at the indoor pool and they also have movie nights at the pool. Wakoola springs pool has a water slide, and interactive area for smaller children. This pool is very large.

I have read some of the negative comments and have come to the conclusion that some people just can not be happy. This is a resort for families and children and and if we don't like the noise, we should go to an all adult resort.

This is a GOLD CROWN resort and it deserves this designation. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We always look forward to our next visit!

We have stayed at the Fountains several times , and each time found the resort to be very clean and well maintained. The staff were very helpful and courteous. A previous posting complained of the noise, and BlueGreen must be listening as the sound system was barely audible on our most recent visit. The leaf blowers do run each morning, but that must be the cost of such a beautiful landscape. We will be returning with family time and again!

The Fountains is an excellent location for an Orlando vacation. Facilities were great with lots of activities. Disney is only a few minutes away. Loved it!

My family and I stayed in building 2 during the last week of August. With the exception of the daily odiferous trash buildup outside the locked doors to the trashroom, the buildings and grounds were well maintained and the staff was courteous and mostly helpful. However, if asked to describe the Fountains in one word I would have to say "NOISY."

Between 7:30 am and 9:00 am daily, a worker uses a powerful leaf blower to blow the debris around the large pool deck. This apparently is meant to discourage guests from having coffee and breakfast on their screened in patios. Then, beginning at 9:00 am, the activity desk pipes children's music through the resort sound system for which many speakers are each placed approx 15 feet from the buildings surrounding the pools. This music could only possibly appeal to 2 to 4 year olds as even discriminating Wiggles fans would be put off by it. At 10 am the pool staff contributes to the cacophony with their own very loud music in an obvious attempt to drown out the kiddie music and win the hearts of the 11 to 14 year old demographic. After an hour or more the kiddie music finally disappears. The pool music continues until the pool is closed.

Ready for a good night's sleep after a long day? Not likely. Management has somehow determined that the soothing sounds from the resort's fountains do not provide sufficient ambience. So once again, the speakers outside the units are utilized - this time to play a recording of fake cricket and frog noises. Calls at 1:00 am to the front desk for some relief were handled courteously but with no effect. We checked out two days early.
