No construction, clean room with a great view, helpful staff, and kind employees all around the resort. There is no airport shuttle, which is a bummer, and the air conditioner is good but could be better. The cons are not enough to keep us from visiting The Dolphins again. We enjoy our stays there and the convenience of the location at EPCOT.

Nice property with great location for Disney parks but they need to focus on arrival at the hotel for guests driving. It was pure chaos upon arrival with no signage or communication and you have to park on the other side of the neighboring hotel so it’s a bit of a walk with luggage.
