Great vacation at a nice location.
The Swan is a convenient place to stay on our vacation and seemed about average for what I expected. There is a variety of onsite restaurants but the food was Disney expensive and just OK. I would like to see the property try to keep the ducks from making a mess in the pools. Nonetheless, closeness to the Boardwalk, several parks and ease of Disney transportation made our stay in Florida wonderful.

Great king size bed and great places to eat
Me and my husband stayed there for three nights for our honeymoon. The concierge helped us in a great attitude always and also they have excellent restaurants like the sushi and the buffet. The room was very comfortable and the hotel smells very nice. We didnt like that they charge everyday the internet as a hotel policy even if you dont use it, they have transportation to all Disney parks, downtown Disney and the outlet mall for example which we loved!

Ultimate Disney Lover
Great Disney Experience!
My family and I had a great experience at the Swan! The location is perfect; you can walk to Epcot and Hollywood Studios. The bus rides to the other Disney rides are short. We took taxi's to the airport and Islands of Adventure which cost between $45 and $65 each way. I do wish the swan had more of a Disney feel, it is more of a classy look. If you want more of a Disney environment I would recommend a different resort. The food in the hotel is very expensive, even a bottle of water cost about $2.50. I recommend bringing your own breakfast, snacks and water bottle to fill. There is a $15 a day resort fee which is dumb, all you get is two bottles of water, coffee, tea and they clean your room. If you go "green" you get a $5 credit each day. But everything at Disney is expensive so what do you expect... The pool is great! Disney is a blast no matter where you stay.

Swan is Super
The Swan was terrific. We knew it was in walking distance of Epcot, which was the primary factor in choosing this hotel. But, we didn't know that the property was so beautiful. The pools, hot tub, gym, "swan" paddle boats, and excellent restaurants made for a perfect location to take a break from all the Disney parks. Highly recommend this hotel. The ability to walk to Epcot eliminated waiting for a bus. However, the bus to all the parks is located right outside the hotel door. In addition, you can take a boat to Epcot, Downtown Disney, and MGM, if you just want to cruise it. Great time!
