Great alternative to a Disney resort
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/13/08
We have always stayed on Disney property, but had the opportunity to go to the SPM Blue Tree Resort (incidentally, in this resort, some of the buildings are managed by Westgate, some by SPM. We stayed in a SPM managed one, so my remarks are about their management). For an non-Disney resort, this was very convenient. We went to all parks and it was never more than a 10 or 12 minute ride. The condo was clean, well equipped and the staff went OUT OF THEIR WAY to make you feel welcome. Pool area was well maintained. You could have walked to grocery store and restaurants from this location. If we ever stay off Disney property again, we will certainly go back to SPM Blue Tree Resort. Only negative -- the sofa bed was terrible to sleep on. The other bedding was very comfortable. Again, this review is for the condos in this resort that are managed by SPM.
