Westgate Lakes Resort and Spa

I liked that the hotel was gated. They guards at the gate were very nice and friendly. Once at check-in, they called me by name when I walked up to the desk and had everything ready to go. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the grounds were well maintained. I was very pleased and will stay there again when possible.

Purchased a stay at this hotel for my daughter and her friend. They were having their prom at one of the Disney Resorts. This was perfect for them close to where they would be going on 5 miles. After seeing the room I was actually jealous what a great room I wanted to stay myself. The staff was very helpful. The entire property was overwhelming because it was so big but the staff was right there to take you to your room. My daughter enjoyed it a lot great memory. Resort is very close to Disney!

I visited last week with my two teenage grandsons and we loved our unit, couldn’t have been happier. They wanted to live there. It was immaculate, view of the lake right behind us. We didn’t get on each others nerves because we had so much space, big rooms, screened in porch. All the air conditioning units (12) were located right next to the window of my bedroom. Soundproofing was good in bedroom but quite noisey on screened in porch. They did a good job of hiding them behind shrubs. The pools were close and big, though they couldn’t do everything they liked in the pools. Not crowded. Everybody we dealt with was nice. My only wish was an airport shuttle and more choices of times to the theme parks. We didn’t rent a car and that meant taxis and shuttles, taxis and tips. You can waste so much time waiting, and waiting. I would go back but next time will rent a car.

Everything was amazing and convenient. The staff was very helpful and courteous. They had a lot of on site activities for the kids and eight pools to choose from. The room was very comfortable and the staff made it their duty to make sure we were satisfied – will definitely be staying here in future travels.

My son and I had a wonderful time at the Orlando Westgate Resort and Spa, we stayed there for three nights from May 10th until May 13th, Everyone was very kind, the villa was so comfy, the food was great and our favorite part was doing the CUPID SHUFFLE!
Can’t wait to go back.

We booked a 2 bedroom condo at the Westgate. It worked out perfect. The kids had their own space and we had ours after long days at the parks. The location to Universal was fantastic as it took probably 3 minutes to get from hotel parking lot to Universal’s parking lot. A block or so off of International Drive was ideal as International Dr. was pretty crazy & congested. I would recommend this property for sure!

I stayed one week at the Palace & the room was excellent. We first had a room with a view to the parking lot, (which made us feel like we never left New York). but after requesting a change it was done the next morning. No problems. The staff was great & the room was clean & fully equipped with everything you need. Even renting a car was easy & fast. The only thing i would change is the music they play by the pool. A little variety would be nice. Overall, it was the best vacation ever. I would definitely stay there again & recommend it to others.
Events and shows tips:
Wonder Works & the Comedy Show is a MUST SEE!!! Funny & a lot of activities & exhibits. Worth every penny….Sleuth Mystery Dinner Show is also a must see. Dinner was excellent, the shows are funny & audience interaction is also great.

I love Westgate! I can’t stop telling people about it. I want them to experience the joy, excitement, and the relaxation of staying at Westgate. I’ve been an owner since 2007 and each year I upgraded to a new room because I fell in love with it when I took the tours. My children look forward to going to Town Center every year, and I’m glad because of all the memories we created while visiting Westgate all the years we have been going were magical. So if you never visited Westgate you should definitely put it on your bucket list.

We went for my sons 8th birthday, spent a 3day weekend to Disney and loved the room. It was spacious and clean – plenty of room, and encountered a great and helpful staff. Actually booking another trip as I’m typing this testimonial…. best money spent.

We have loved every occasion that we have visited Westgate in Orlando. My teenage children love it and always bring a guest or two with us. For the past three years we have brought friends with us to share our vacations. Everyone has been impressed with the luxury of the rooms and the convience to Disney and other places. We are very satisfied owners.

As a 49th wedding anniversary present, I arranged a trip for my mother and father to Las Vegas. To be able to provide a beautiful, but economical (for me!) vacation for the people who gave birth to me does not begin to pay them for their years of caring for me. It certainly makes me feel a great deal of satisfaction that I bought a property that I can share with my family that offers versatility, beauty, comfort, options and as a result, a flood of memories.
Thanks to Westgate for providing the means for me to fulfill at least some of my family’s dreams.

Our first experience with Westgate Resorts happened in 1995 whereby we, our family, children and grandchildren, exchanged our Pennsylvania timeshare for a week at Westgate Resorts. Needless to say, we were overwhelmed with our welcome and the facilities at that time.
We found out with our many exchanges, that there are not many timeshares, if any that could compare with Westgate. Therefore, we are extremely satisfied to be permanent, proud owners with “The best of the best, WESTGATE RESORTS!

When we were on vacation, we took our 12-year-old daughter and a friend. We spent 3 or 4 days hitting the theme parks pretty hard. On Wednesday, our daughter said, “You know, I’d just like to stay here today to enjoy this fun place.”
We had one of the nicer days on our trip swimming, paddle boating, and eating pizza and never left Westgate. It was like having a vacation in the midst of a vacation.

The room was great. Granite counter tops, huge upscale master bath with rain shower and bigger than most apartments. Two 32″ lcd TV’s. The kids loved the activities and the indoor and outdoor pool. They are adding a huge indoor water park and spa soon which should make this an even better resort. It is close to the new Payne Stewart golf course, shopping, shows and the water so there is something for everyone. The location was great – 10 – 15 minutes from the landing which was our favorite place to hang out in the evenings if we didn’t do a show. Overall a great experience and we stayed an extra night because of it. Very relaxing! Overall it was a great weekend get away.

This was our second stay at the Westgate and we were very satisfied. We stayed in the motel section in a room with two queen beds. It was a typical motel room with a refrigerator and microwave. The room was not large but it worked well for us. The best thing about the room was the pricing we received! We are not into the luxurious accommodations and would rather save the cash for shopping or seeing a show. The room was just fine and it was clean and well maintained. For us we were totally satisfied with the room!
The grounds of this facility are simply awesome! There is both an indoor pool and outdoor pool. There are two hot tubs at the outside pool. We used both the indoor pool and the hot tubs and had a great time! I have stayed at many places and this property is one of the best ever. There are many things you can do and participate in if you wish. There is a nice game room and pizza place in the recreation center. There are numerous outdoor facilities you may use as well.
I can assure you without a doubt that you can have a great time at the Westgate Branson Resort for a minimal amount of money if you choose. I doubt if you can beat the rates here! The villas and condos will set you back a few more dollars and they are very nice as well. For us the motel room serves our purposes!
For the price I recommend you try it and see how you feel. What do you have to lose? I know we will be back!

We stayed in a one bedroom unit Thanksgiving week. We had a unit facing the pool and waterfall. It was quiet. We never heard another guest in any units. The place was immaculate. All the appliances and furnishings were in like new condition. I loved the gas fireplace to take the chill out upon returning to our unit. I honestly can’t think of one complaint. The staff was very helpful and courteous. If you do have any problem no matter how small they jump and take care of it immediately. They also have a card in the room stating that this is their policy. The pictures do not do this place justice. It is even nicer in person. We felt so comfortable here. It was only a short drive from the strip, just down the road from the Rio, Palms and Gold Coast. We had a rental car so going back and forth was no problem at all. They also have all type of on site activities, but we didn’t take advantage of any as we had so much ground to cover on the strip. Great place! was wonderful! It was clean and had everything we needed. I didn’t want to go home but unfortunately all vacations must end. Westgate Resorts we thank you for such a wonderful experience and can’t wait to return next year!

We are new owners and were thoroughly delighted with our first trip to our condo. We took our 2 yr old daughter and really appreciated having a kitchen for quick kid meals/snacks, as well as coffee and sodas handy for us. There was also a grocery store within easy walking distance and a restaurant across the street. We took the shuttle to the strip and back everyday with no problems. The grounds were exceptionally well kept and the unit was adorable and comfortable. They provided a crib for the tot and it was nice to be able to put her to bed in the bedroom and still have the living room to ourselves. The in room jacuzzi tub was wonderful too. I have to say it was a big 5 star all around!

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary in Vegas August, 2011. The property was so peaceful and serene. They provided a shuttle to/from the strip I thought was very accommodating and convenient. I would recommend staying at one of there properties to all my family and friends.

The Westgate is a great family resort. My family and I had a great vacation there on Aug, 2009. The service and staff were absolutely wonderful. I could not have asked for better service and hospitality. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. There were activities at the hotel everyday for everyone in the family. There is a restaurant in the hotel and a poolside bar. The food was excellent. We had an oceanfront room with a balcony and the location and view was wonderful. The hotel is in a great location and close to all the attractions. We had a wonderful vacation and I would definitely stay at the Westgate again.

Our stay at the Westgate Hotel on March 2008 was excellent. When had two problems with room when arrived, the refrigerator was not cooling and their was a metal part of the middle of one bed sticking out but they immediately came and fixed. Everything else was super and I loved the view and the pools and the beach front and downtown and rest. and activities were in walking distanced if we wanted to walk. The staff was so pleasant and helpful and made us feel we were so important.Having a safe in the room was very nice. Beds were comfortable.The pools were heated and a joy to swim in even though it was cool.
Traveler’s tip
The Kingdom across the street was not open which it was spring break and felt it should have been and no one told us that when we booked with Expedia.com nor are there any smoking rooms but you can smoke on balcony and most everywhere else in town. Going to Hard Rock cafe is a must Riply’s Aquarium.

We had previously stayed at Westgate Smoky Mountain Resort in 2009 and knew that we would be back. The location is great because you are not in the noisy town area but only 2 miles from Gatlinburg and 3 miles from Pigeon Forge. You could actually stay there and never leave. There is the pool, water park, playground onsite. They have the restaurant and convenience store onsite also. We stayed in a 1 bedroom condo and took food to cook and make sandwiches since you have a fully equipped kitchen. That helps with expenses! And we will keep going back!

OMG! I can’t wait to go back. Aside from the resort being a five star in my book, the staff at the resort is five star as well. I cannot say that the accomodations were good. I would have to say that they were outstanding. I have been an owner for four years and of all of the Westgate properties, this happens to be my favorite. Looking forward to going back. I recommend it highly.

Wow, what an amazing place!!! This resort property on the mountain was grandiose and spectacular in every sense of the word. It exceeded my every expectation. You are welcomed with an entrance lit like an elegant amusement park. There was a huge indoor facility with a heated pool, slide and play area that is perfect for kids. The cabins/rooms were huge but very cozy. It was decorated very tastefully with modern log cabin-esque sophistication. It is a home away from home. The room was equipped with everything you need for a long stay too…dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge, 2 TVs, leather sofa, vanity area, etc… All the rooms are immaculate in cleanliness, presentation and with great attention to detail. I ate at the hotel restaurant twice. I truly expected the hotel food to be overpriced with small portions but it wasn’t at all. The quality of the food and service was excellent. The pricing was very, very, affordable. I highly recommend this place. The hotel is on a mountain with great views too. It is a few minutes away in car from major points of interest. This new hotel is way more than I expected for the rate I paid. I was very impressed and wish I had stayed longer.

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel we stayed in 2008. Using our GPS we easily found this hotel. Greeted by a staff of pleasant people. As we got to our room , I immediately notice the clean carpet in the hallway, our room was very clean and was well equipped with nice and essential amenities such as a refrigerator,microwave,washer and dryer(yes you heard me…washer and dryer)And we even got to use the pool all by ourselves.(In the morning guest are usually at Busch Gardens).
Traveler’s tip
The hotel rooms have it all. A microwave,refrigerator,toaster,plates,washer and dryer. So , bring frozen food and you can save a lot of money by eating what you brought since it can be expensive eating out for all three meals.

Gorgeous room complete with whirlpool and fireplace. Made my wife’s birthday something to remember. We will definitely come again as the hotel is exceptionally close to all historical sites which were well within walking distance.
Traveler’s tip:
Be sure to try the King’s Arms Tavern for dinner. Very pricey but well worth it for the pampering and fine food and service.
