Nice well stocked unit, efficient staff and check in....nice outdoor amenities...nice pool area.

After 1 night, our feet were filthy from the tile floors ( leave your shoes on ) then we noticed the ceiling fan blades were filthy...these are minor compared to the positives of the resort!

Nice conveinent unit

I’ll start off saying the best part for our family of 10 was the pool and play are. The children had a good time doing the scheduled events at the resort. 
I’m the resort some areas we rusty or mildew. The elevator was broken and it was hard to get ahold of staff from the phone. 
Over all it was decent and it did the job for the time we needed. 


Just Okay

This 2-bedroom apartment was bigger than most we have stayed in. Although if you want a deck be sure to ask ahead of time: as not all units have a deck. We had two issues: broken ice-maker and a washing machine that leaked. The first was a minor problem (we just bought ice) the other a little bigger. We used the washer once and had to clean up a puddle, but it wasn't like it was flooded.

The room was very nice, but dated a bit. The cabinets showed some cosmetic wear. Everything was very clean an functioning though. The beds were REALLY comfortable, as were the sheets, blankets etc. (Not sure about the pillows as we bring our own).

The onsite amenities are above average - multiple pools, water "parks" for the kids, hot tubs and a nice little "adventure" park. All a good value for kids under 12 especially. 

The location is excellent related to Disney/Universal/Seaworld and to Publix and Walmart (go to Publix - this particular WalMart is a bid of a zoo);  but if you like to walk/run in the morning or during the day it is not the best location - you are kind of stuck on main roads, most with sidewalks - some without.

Depending on what you pay in trade, points, or cash - there is good value to be had here.
The Staff is exceptionally helpful, friendly and available - they will make things right if there is anything wrong.



Calypso Cay - A Great Value Stay

Our stay was very pleasant aside from the loud neighbors who were fighting, they had no regard for there neighbors. View was only ok and we didn't have any wash cloths in our condo, but we went to the office to request so,w supplies and they brought them right over 

Very Good

Orlando vacation for family fun and relaxation  with central location to resorts and restaurants. Tiki bar with food and drink, swimming pools with slides, hot tubs and sports courts .easy ride to airport 

Family vacation

The rooms were spacious and very clean. The washer and dryer were a super bonus. The kitchen was well laid out and perfect for our stay. Loved being on the 4th floor just across from the elevator. The pool and the Tikki Bar were just steps away from our exit of the elevator on the ground floor. Tikki Bar service was great and the food was good. The hot tub was large enough to not feel crowded. When I had an issue with the hot water not getting hot the maintenance person came and fixed it immediately.  The location was perfect for the Orlando attractions like Disney World, I also picked this place because it was close to the airport. 

Wonderful place to stay.

this is a LONG REVIEW but it’s honest and hopefully helpful. I tried breaking it into sections. My review of capital vacations and the resort itself. 

OVERALL
I booked this stay through capital vacations as they now own the property. I received a “free” 4 day 3 night stay as long as I attended a sales pitch. Beware of hidden fees and up charges for things like turn down service in the rooms. The pictures show what you’re likely to get. We stayed on the 2nd floor. I was told they’re updating rooms starting at the top so try to get a 5th floor room if you can. 

CALYPSO CAY
With that being said, I don’t recommend staying here and furthermore I wouldn’t purchase anything from capital. The water smelled weird ? (Idk if that’s a Kissimmee thing or a calypso cay thing). The carpet and bedding was visibly stained making it hard to be comfortable here. Our dryer didn’t work, we called for service and waited about an hour before we just left. The resort itself wasn’t anything special either. Maybe for couples with small children for a weekend getaway ? But even then I don’t think it’s worth it. 

CAPITAL VACATIONS
The salesmen I was assigned was personable and likeable enough. The pitch is actually convincing. I went in knowing I wouldn’t be purchasinf a timeshare but after the presentation and a talk with our salesmen I found myself wanting to know more and trying to make it make sense lol.  We start out talking about $50k for their vacation package. After about 7 no’s we got all the way down to 8k but of course you have to buy right then and there. Most people know these time share and cavation rental companies are quite “scammy” but if you don’t know, just use your judgement. If someone pressures you into a HUGE decision, maybe not a good idea. If the price gets lower and lower with every “No”, it’s probably not a good idea.

Don’t stay if you don’t have to

Very dated apartment and not too clean, especially the carpets and sofa. Sofa has a musty smell. What’s worse though is how dark the walkways to the rooms are at night - no lighting!! 

Looks like the original furniture and never been replaced or updated. Try with little touches but sadly this falls short as the apartments are so dated. 

Luckily we are only here for 2 days and out for most of the day - so just a place to sleep and have a shower.

Sadly can’t recommend calypso cay which is a shame. 

In dire need of some ‘tlc’ and modernisation.

Dated Properties

We had an excellent experience at Calypso Cay.  Property is gorgeous clean and welcoming.  Tiki Bar is a must do.  The pools are fabulous. Room was clean well stocked with anything you might need for your stay.  Staff was very kind.  

Florida getaway

Unfortunately, this was rented through a "vacation package."  We were immediately disappointed by being charged $25 a day "resort fee."  Although we were allowed in our room upon arrival, our room had a lot of drawbacks, including:  (1) We couldn't access the closet as the door was blocked, (2) no bathmat.  We were told if we purchased one we would be reimbursed -- we weren't, (3) the screen on the porch was ripped, (4) no room safe.  We were told they didn't need it as no one would enter our room without our permission.  We left the room and came back to a bag of bedding dumped in the hallway, without our knowledge or request, (5) the wall switch turned off the clock, (6) the toilet didn't fully flush -- there is more, but I don't want to beat a dead horse.  I will say, the room was large.  Otherwise, I would not recommend this hotel.
