Heypal!

Try the All Star Sports Hotel. Disney is very accomadating. As well as most of the ride operators.

Look me up when your here I am in S Florida.

Hey there...We've been going down to Disney the past couple of years and love it. We have never stayed on Disney property, always rented a condo or home but that's just because I don't find hotel rooms very comfortable, esp. when I have to share a room with my 3 kids. There are plenty of wheelchair friendly places down there..just search the net for Florida accomodations and they usually list whether or not they are "wheelchair friendly." Have a great time, they really are so accomodating down there.

I've been there. We were staying in a hotel in Miami and decided to drive there. It was great! I've always wanted to go! It's very accessible, and even the boat rides are accessible! Too bad I had a major uti and was drugged up for the trip! Maybe I'll go back! :(

This was really informative. My daughter wants me to join her and my grandchildren on a vacation to Disneyworld. Maybe I’ll just take her up on it. Thanks for the confidence.

I live in Central FL, Winter Haven, and go often... they do a great job. If you are having an issue just let them know.
