Resort vs Villages

Yes we own at both vacation properties. My husband and I personally prefer the Villages and its location which is upscale prestigious "International Drive". Our opinion follows: Vistana is more family oriented, many more activities going on for kids and is closer to Disney (crowded and busy). If your needs and likes are such you would prefer Vistana Resort. Our thoughts are the Resort is not as luxurious as the Villages. The Villages we truly love. We prefer an adult quiet relaxing setting with a magnificent waterfall pool, breath taking water views and landscaping. This Starwood Vistana " Villages" is similar to any Marriott vacation property (top notch). Villages staff are friendly, nice, very accommodating and quick to respond to a guest 😂 [Q=nannerfl] Has anyone stayed at both? Which would you recommend and why? (Mom, Dad and an 11 yr old swimmer!) Usually stay at Marriott Grande Vista but thinking of trying something new this time. Also welcome any other suggestions. Thank you![/Q]
