Ok, we'll go ahead and say it... this is a fancy resort. When we first visited to have lunch in one of the restaurants in the hotel, we felt severely under dressed in a polo and shorts. This 900 room Victorian resort is meant to evoke a turn of the century elegant Florida. Services include five restaurants, five shops, arcade, lounges, swimming pools, beach front on the Seven Seas lagoon, convenient monorail access and a whole lot more. Everything here is elegantly done.
