Disney Riviera Resort Review

We literally stayed in so much comfort and had so much room that I don’t think we would ever be as happy at another Disney property. Not even kidding. This was the best resort we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in over a dozen Disney properties.

The Disney Riviera Resort hotel is inspired by Europe and imagined by Disney. You truly feel like you have landed in Europe when you arrive. The views are gorgeous. We could watch the Epcot fireworks nightly from our balcony.

There were so many fabulous places to dine and best of all the Skyliner is located at this resort! You can easily load and transfer to Epcot and Disney Hollywood Studios from the hotel via the Skyliner.

If you haven’t taken the Skyliner you are missing out. I love staying at a resort that has access to it. You can cruise around Walt Disney World Resort in style in these ariel gondolas.

Once inside the stylish accommodations are beautiful. I was impressed with the lavish bathroom and that it was a Jack and Jill with the bedroom having access to its own vanity and bathtub.

Our villa gave enough space for our teens to spread out which really made me happy! The Disney Riviera offers cozy Tower Studios to spacious villas with up to 3 bedrooms.

We stayed in a villa and trust me once you do you will never be able to go back to a standard room. We were all so happy with the space it had to offer.

As you can see the pullman bed (murphy bed) is awesome. It is built into the wall behind the sofa in the living room as you can see here. It was really comfortable too! We loved the detail of the artwork behind it. Disney thought of everything at the Disney Riviera.

We truly felt at home in a 1-Bedroom Villa. We had a separate king size bedroom that gave us plenty of privacy. We had a full kitchen complete with stainless-steel appliances and a nice table and chairs with banquet seating.

Best of all we had our own washer and dryer. This is a great way to save money because you could easily pack in a carry on and not have to check luggage for a week+ vacation. I did laundry twice while we were there.

I can’t say enough about the soothing bubble-jet bathtub, where you can relax after an excitement-packed day. And trust me I did! There is nothing better than soaking in this tub after a long day at the parks. Trust me.

Under the TV was a twin pullman bed (murphy bed) that my son slept on. He said it was comfortable and never complained which is staying a lot of a teenager.

He enjoyed the attention to detail and the artwork that was behind the bed. Disney Riviera thought of every detail to make this a classy stay.

If you are planning a multi-generational getaway with the entire family then consider booking a luxurious 3-Bedroom Grand Villa. They sleep up to 12 guests and offer spacious living and dining areas where you can share quality time together. I can’t even imagine how luxurious of a trip that would be!

My husband enjoyed lunch at Topolino’s Terrace while we hit the parks. He LOVED it! The flavor of the Riviera offers French and Italian cuisine, along with sweeping rooftop views. You can enjoy breakfast à la Art with Mickey & Friends. It would be a great way to start your morning with breakfast at this beautiful rooftop restaurant offering an exclusive storybook dining experience.

For dinner, get ready to indulge in fresh, delicious seafood and meat dishes, handmade pasta and decadent desserts infused with French and Italian flavors at this signature rooftop dining experience straight from the Riviera. I plan to do both next time we stay at the Disney Riviera.

Here is a beautiful view of the lobby. It was a great place to relax and unwind. We loved all of the decor. It was a lovely entrance to the hotel.

Down some stairs off the lobby was this beautiful swimming pool. It was regal and set with a backdrop that was picture perfect. The pool was heated so we were able to enjoy it even when it wasn’t hot outside. The loungers are perfect for relaxing poolside.

Right now, we are dreaming about our next Disney World Vacation. This was the trip of a lifetime.
