2015 Marathon Weekend Hotel Accomodations

For this year’s trip to Disney for my first experience with the Dopey Challenge I chose to stay off property to save some money.  I also needed a place where my children and my parents would have a place to sleep.  I wanted a place with a washer and dryer and full kitchen.  WorldQuest Orlando Resort was perfect.  We got a 3 bedroom suite, which was the size of a condo!

It had plenty of space for everyone.  There was a dining room area, living room area, full kitchen, screened in porch, pull out sofa, washer and dryer, 2 bathrooms and all of that was available to us for just around $150 per night!  You can’t beat it!   They also have a nice pool area with a hot tub and Tiki Bar, light continental breakfast and a small workout area.

I was concerned about driving to the races because I have never done that before for a morning race.  This was amazing.  I was less than 10 minutes away from door to parking space.  It was a direct route right to Epcot.  On the day of the half and full there was a little bit of a detour because some of the roads to Epcot were closed due to the corrals being located there.  However, the detour was super easy and I left with plenty of time and didn’t have traffic issues to worry about.

Here’s a video I made from our stay.  For more information visit their website.  I found the place from my friend Amanda Tinney.  She stayed there once and I loved the place the minute I drove up to it.  It’s in a very quiet area with nothing around, but it isn’t far from anything at all!  I will plan on staying there again next year!  If you ever want to hook up with me for other Disney races and you want to share a room there I would be more than happy to do so!
