Quiet and Cozy Private Resort Condo in Bahama Bay

The resort amenities were of high quality. pool and hot tub were sufficiently heated. the apartment were spacious and everything was in order. any hiccups were dealt swiftly by the owner. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the future

4.5 stars. We were visiting Disney because our son's marching band was performing at the Magic Kingdom. This condo was nearby and very well priced, so we booked despite there being no reviews yet. I'm glad that we took that leap of faith! The condo was spotlessly clean when we arrived, and all the information to check in and access the unit was correct. The unit was larger than expected, with a very spacious living/dining room area, three separate bedrooms, and two full baths. The decor is a bit dated, but I'll take clean over trendy any day. The walls between units are pretty thin, so you can hear clearly everything that's going on next door and upstairs. If you're a light sleeper, I'd highly recommend bringing a white noise machine. The kitchen has all the equipment you'd need to cook a meal, but you'll need to bring or buy all your own spices (including salt and pepper). You'll also need basket filters for the coffee maker (we bought a large pack and left the extras, but I don't know if the owner will leave those for subsequent guests or not). Oddly, there are no scissors or kitchen shears in the unit, so plan to pack your own if you need to remove tags from purchases. Bahama Bay itself is gated and safe, with multiple pools and playgrounds. We also took advantage of the spa with a FANTASTIC massage, and would recommend them, as well. This condo is about 20-30 minutes to every Disney property, depending on traffic.

Paul’s place was nice for my family of 5. It was a little farther out from Kissimmee (45min - 1hr) than we wanted since we were there to visit family versus going to Disney World. Otherwise, the set up and accommodations were great. I gave 4 stars on cleanliness because my son pointed out what appeared to be blood on one of the pillow shams and a few of the provided towels had some stains/spots on them. We had no complaints or issues besides that. My kids enjoyed the community pool and hot tub. We didn’t realize there is also a splash pad until another guest told us. Oh, we did take advantage of having the kitchen to cook versus eating out. So just a heads up that the smoke detector is rather sensitive and goes off when opening the oven door to remove cooked food. This happened twice but it only beeped a couple times. After that we turned on the microwave vent fan and the smoke detector didn’t go off anymore. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!
