We really enjoyed our time at the dolphin. I is located very conveniently near Disney parks. It has excellent transportation options. The biggest downside which is true for any hotel on Disney property is a lack of affordable food options

We are finally at a point in our life we can afford a high end Disney property. The dining options were great, multiple kinds of transportation were available, the hotel even when it was busy seemed quiet, and there are a ton of dining options.
