We stayed for two weeks at River Island, Orange Lakes through an RCI swap. We were amazed at the accommodation we were given. The double room was spacious, had all the amenities we could have possibly asked for and was exceptionally comfortable. It was just my husband and I, but we definitely enjoyed every second of out stay. The River... more

Firstly I don’t understand where all the bad reviews come from. We stayed in a three bed in the North Village in one of the villas around the golf course. The trip was booked through RCI and we have stayed at a number of very nice resorts in different countries. This was booked as an exchange week in the West... more

We had read so many reviews we weren't sure what to expect but we absolutely loved the resort! The rooms were huge and the pools and lazy river were awesome. We left the kids home this time but we kept saying how they would love this place. The staff were very friendly and one firm "no, thank you" about the... more

Absolutely beautiful. Less than 10 minutes to Blizard Beach, MGM and Epcot and less that 5 minutes to Animal Kingdom (boarders on Animal Kingdom). We watched Magic Kingdom's fireworks every night from our patio. So much to do on the resort, save some days for exploring the resort. You will visit River Island on the resort continuously, because of the... more

We exchanged thru RCI. I was nervous given the bad reviews I saw. We were in the west village and felt duped because the picture on the RCI website is not an indicator of what you get. However, that is not Orange Lakes fault. We chose to do the presentation as the owner of 3 timeshare weeks, I like to... more

This was a very nice place. I was nervous a bit at first after reading some of the reviews but it was a very nice place. It had all the amenities you could ask for. We were able to use all the pools. We have two young children and they had a great time swimming at all the different pools.... more

This place is wonderful. It is great for people of all ages who like to just "chill" and relax. People who do not have to go to the parks. No need. There is so much to do on the property. There are golf courses, 11 very nice swimming pools (although at least one or 2 could be a little deeper.),... more

We stayed at Orange Lake Resort the week of August 15, 2008. The last half of the stay was pretty much ruined by Tropical Storm Fay, though it helped to draw attention to some of the good and bad at the resort. Overall the resort is very comfortable, clean, well-maintained, with gorgeous grounds and nice sized pools and water activity... more

The orange lake resort is really big. we stayed in the 2 bedroom villa. it was really nice and clean. This resort is perfect for families.my only problem is you need to drive around just to go to the pool. And also if you want to get cheap tickets from them you will have to attend those meeting at 11... more
