All of the resort hotels at Walt Disney World have unique themes and it is always fun to see how Disney incorporates the theme into the overall feeling of the resort. At Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa, you don’t have to look far to see that the theme of this resort is horses and horse racing – specifically recalling the upscale peaceful ambiance of the resort town of Saratoga Springs, New York. Nods to horses and racing are evident everywhere, from the resort front desk and check in (The Carriage House), to the deluxe villa rooms, and even to the names of different sections of this large resort (Grandstand, Congress Park, Paddock, Carousel).
Located among among picturesque greens and lakes, while the resort is fairly spread out, it offers many winding paths that run along the water between the resort and Disney Springs. In fact, the resort is just a short walk or boat ride to Disney Springs. Guests will find plenty of nice bike and jogging trails, as well as other activities such as fishing and roasting marshmallows over campfires.
The resort’s main pool is the High Rock Spring Pool, located near the resort’s check-in and featuring a water slide and waterfalls. Guests can also enjoy the Paddock Pool, which also features a water slide, and three other leisure pools scattered through the resort.
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa is a villa resort, and offers a variety of studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom villas. The resort also offers one of the most unique accommodations in Walt Disney World, the Treehouse Villas, a selection of raised villas with woodland views that can sleep up to 9 guests.
For dining, guests can enjoy a casual table-service meal at the Turf Club Bar and Grill, or grab a quick bite at the Artist’s Palette. If you are looking for more variety, the nearby Disney Springs also offers a large selection of restaurants.
