The avanti hotel was absolutely perfect for what we needed. We used this as a base as we were at Disney every day, the hotel room was cleaned daily unless we asked not to, it’s in an ideal location on international drive where there is loads of restaurants to choose from. The staff were very helpful especially during hurricane Milton. If you didn’t catch the free bus (what you have to book) to Disney and uber or Lyft taxi was no more then $22 dollars.

“Good hotel but beware of excessive charges on arrival”

We had two rooms for our stay both were adequate for our stay and cleaned daily with fresh towels etc, plus great aircon. The pool is large and open late which was nice after a day around at the parks. Avanti is ideal for days out to Disney or Universal with a shuttle bus to both parks daily, you … more

We had two rooms for our stay both were adequate for our stay and cleaned daily with fresh towels etc, plus great aircon. The pool is large and open late which was nice after a day around at the parks. Avanti is ideal for days out to Disney or Universal with a shuttle bus to both parks daily, you have to book a seat 24hrs before as they go fast and Uber is cheap enough if you dont want to use the bus. Just up the the road is Icon park with lots of bars and restaurants. The only downside was the hotel charge on arrival $300+ for each room and i was informed i'd be refunded $100 per room after i leave still awaiting the money after 3 months and various correspondence with the Avanti yet still waiting.

Honest review about Avanti Overall the hotel provided what we needed, a place to sleep after long days at Disney / Universal Studios. Would I stay here again? Unfortunately, the answer is NO. The positives are that this hotel is in a good location for restaurants and bars, there are some really nice places to eat on the doorstep. We found the beds comfortable and always had clean towels, the beds were also made daily. Apart from the beds being made, toilet roll and towels being replenished, NO other cleaning was done. Our shower, toilet and sinks were not cleaned during our two week stay. The floors were not swept or mopped either. The aircon is VERY loud but it is very effective and lovely and cold. The pool floor is full of sand and grit which is off putting and not nice to feel on your feet. SHUTTLES FOR DISNEY + ORLANDO The free resort shuttles were a big selling point for us when booking this hotel. PLEASE do NOT book if you are using as a base for Disney and will be using shuttles! There are 2x buses in the AM at 7:50am and 9:50am - and then 2x return buses at 7:50pm and 9:50pm. These times are so inconvenient - if you want to stay at Disney for the fireworks you have over an hour to wait for your bus home! They are also full to the brim and sometimes we had to stand for the 45min - 60min ride. The shuttle stops at several hotels and it takes a LONG time to get there. UBERs from Avanti to Disney are $20 - $35 depending on the time of day. Universal Studio is $7 - $15 in UBER. The shuttles to Universal are impossible to book, you can NEVER get a place booked. I think the $100 resort fee is expensive considering how little cleaning actually takes place and how unkempt the facilities are. I can also confirm that every single member of the team I spoke to were VERY rude, they just looked and acted like they really did not care. Answers to questions were short and abrupt, no smile or 'Good morning etc'. Every review on here about their attitude please believe it to be true. FOR ATTENTION OF MANAGEMENT We stayed from 1st Oct 24 - 15th Oct 24, as UK residents we are not subject to the same extreme weather as America and we were very scared about hurricane Milton. We came to reception to ask for some advice, the receptionist said he 'did not know what to advice' when I asked if we needed to prepare provisions etc. We then asked a different colleague the next day who said 'maybe get some food for the room'. We were expecting to get some information under our door etc about what the hotel would be preparing for, if we should prepare anything, if it was safe to be in our rooms etc. We got absolutely NOTHING which I find shocking, surely you have a duty of care to your residents? Overall the hotel is fine for a cheap, basic place to stay. Location is great but the shuttles to Disney and Universal Studios are really bad, if these were made more frequent then it would drastically have improved our stay. Management I URGE you to carry out 'secret shoppers' so you can see what you staff are like from a customer point of view.
