Marriott’s Cypress Harbour Villas

Great spot! Cypress Harbour was a great Marriott Timeshare location. The accommodations were fantastic. Loved the full size washer and dryer. Clean resort and great staff. Pool bar was great. Thanks for the memories Marriott.

In addition be the rooms being absolutely beautiful… they were spotless! The staff is amazing and so attentive and the amenities provided are second to none. I will try to book this resort every time I’m in Orlando because it was that good! There are 2 – 3 pools and from one to another you can either be driven by boat or walk across a bridge which is over a lake with lots of beautiful birds around. What a treat for us! There’s an arcade for kids, basketball court, sand volleyball and playgrounds. Very impressed indeed!

Beautifully manicured hotel, excellent guest service, couldn’t ask for anything else… Will definitely come back.

Very happy with my stay here! Clean rooms; nice spa and gym area. The pools and jacuzzis were wonderful. I loved the Thursday night Hawaii themed show… very entertaining.
The staff were always pleasant and helpful. The amenities are marvelous! The wifi worked wonderful in the room. I loved how our deck overlooked the water. This is truly a great stay in Orlando.

So much fun. Great apartment hotel. Fantastic amenities and staff is wonderful. We decided after two days at Universal lets veg out and let the kids rest. Well with so many planned organized activities offered at this Hotel it was too hard to pass up. We went to the kids club that had an ice cream Social, then we played pool, extreme Frisbee, family bike, free boat ride, movie on the lawn Adirondack chairs there are two pools a sauna kitty area with water features fishing basketball plus more. We could not do all of it but wow it was tempting. Meeting up with my best friends and their kids for this vacation was amazing.

I really want to like this place. The grounds are gorgeous and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Lots of family activities to do. However, the rooms are loud at night, the property is definitely not smoke-​free as Marriott claims and there are not enough designated handicap parking spaces. This is a retirement community, you are going to need more than just two spaces. (Trying to look after and take care of our elderly companion.)

We will def be back! Clean & spacious rooms, huge kitchen & lovely patio! The property is huge & we didn’t hear any noise from any other guests which I loved. Also, Lauren at the front desk went above and beyond to help us out this morning. We had already checked out & we were halfway to the airport when we realized we left some paperwork that we needed for our rental car. She graciously went all the way to our room (which wasn’t close to the main office) to get the documents, scan and email them to us! She was so sweet to do that for us! We will be back! Great property!

I’ve been coming here since I was about 5 years old with my family! 20 years later and I still love it! We call Cypress Harbour or home away from home. Although, I am concerned about the recent selling of the golf course (one of the things that makes the place so serene). Highly recommended for a relaxing Orlando stay!

We’ve stayed here about a dozen times. They are the best. Rooms are always specular, front desk professional — lots of activities. Truly a place of rest.

We have stayed in a lot of condos as a 12-​year time-​share holder in Orlando who utilizes the trading and getaways to the max from Interval International. On this visit, we had brought my wife’s late-70’s year old parents along for a week, and as we drove through the beautifully landscaped and maintained grounds, we were all captivated. Then we opened the door to our 2-​bedroom condo and were wowed again. The décor was bright and colorful, and very tastefully chosen. The registration staff was friendly and did not pressure us to go on the tour as they usually do (been there, done that about 15 times – never again.) They even gave us a ground floor condo as requested which was wonderful for the aging knees and backs utilizing the condo this week. My family really enjoyed the spacious screened porch on the back – most days found the three of them outside enjoying the Florida weather. I was the only one who went to the pool all week, and decided to go to the main pool since it was larger, and I went in the late afternoon when it was not crowded at all. All week we enjoyed the full kitchen and washer and dryer, and the beds were comfortable and spacious as well, although I think my ‘rents-​in-​law were a little crowded in the queen bed in their room since they are used to a king at home. But this was a very restful and beautiful week. Thank you Marriott for another quality stay. We will be seeking out this beautiful property again soon. Oh, and a special shout out to the gate-​keeper, Glenn. His huge and sincere smile made us feel especially welcome every time we came in the gate!

Excellent resort and the staff is awesome. Really lives up to the Marriott name.
Just wish they had the same Pizza restaurant as Hilton Head.

This is a very nice facility. I only have one minor complaint. Front desk staff profiles customers and gives best room locations to white customers. White privilege at its best. I asked for a top floor before I arrived. When I arrived the clerk gave me a ground floor room. When I requested a high floor again he gave me the worst room location in the facility near an elevator and a view facing dead trees. I went back a third time and got a better lake view room and high floor. Remember when your skin color is dark you get the worst choices in room selection. You have to ask three times until they get it that you want the same preferences other human beings most desire.

I love it! Beautiful, fun, entertaining. I will come back at my very first opportunity.

This place is AMAZING. My family has now made it a tradition to go back every Summer. There is something to do for everyone, and it’s such a relaxing vacation spot.
First off the rooms are well kept, spacious, and comfy. I wish they weren’t getting rid of the golf course which sits on the lands because it provides such a scenic view.
Next there are so many activites from making smores around a campfire, to making crafts, nature tours (Alex was the best tour guide, she’s amazing) games, boat rides, I could go on and on. If you have kids you’ll they’ll never get bored. I didn’t as a young adult lol. My favorite was the Luau pool party. It’s also always fun to make new friends here. I had fun talking to my new British mates. There are three pools and even a Sauna! Everything is just beautiful.
The food is pricey, but most of the time we just cooked at our spot or went out to eat since downtown Disney is just a bop, skip, and hop away.
Can’t wait to come back to this paradise!

We are Marriott owners and traded our week through Interval international for this lovely property for Spring Break and were certainly glad we did!
We chose this location to be close to Universal Studios, but I wish we could have spent more leisure time soaking up the sun and enjoying the resort rather than beat the crowd at UnivStudios.
We had a red-​eye flight and arrived around 6am. Check-​in time is 4pm but the front desk was very helpful and accommodated us right away. We requested a pool view and a high floor. We had a few choices of rooms and selected building 55 to be close to the pool. We also took advantage of a corner room and had only one neighbor to the side of us.
The room was spectacular and very spacious for our party of 5. The master suite had an incredible tub and comfy bed. We all slept very well and with the «spring ahead» time change, we needed the rest.
We took advantage of the pool bar and restaurant too. The chicken sandwich was a hit with a side of ceasar salad and shrimp bites. Be sure to check out Happy Hour, as some of these items are on sale!
The activities were a hit with our kids. They enjoyed Bingo with prizes, the ice cream bar and the boat rides across the lake. We loved the «meet an alligator» program and even got to hold the little guy. That was interesting and very educational.
The landscaping was not well maintained, which is so unusual for a Marriott property. Every morning we had weird leaves and debris on our car and all over the parking lot. Maybe a cleaning crew came later and did a spring cleaning, but while we were there, it wasn’t done.
We felt safe with the guard at the entry gate and felt sorry for the folks manning the gate at 3am! Way to go team :)
Tips and Tricks— Be sure to read the daily activities posted on your «to do» list. There are some fun things you don’t want to miss and you can schedule your week around these times.
Play Bingo or tie-​dye a shirt. Enjoy the kids center with a variety of games. You could win coupons for biking or boat rentals!
Take the boat ride across the lake and check out the other pool areas.
Don’t do the 90 min presentation — it takes much longer than that! ugh
Have $$ on hand for the toll roads – These are sneaky little buggers!
Enjoy the alligator presentation. it’s free and educational and you can hold one :)

I love the Marriott Cypress Harbor. It is a nice and casual hotel, especially for families with children. They have an active Kid’s Activity Center, packed with activities during the day and night for kids. The development is big enough for long walks and runs. The staff is extremely hospitable. We received two or so calls throughout the week asking us how we are and if we needed anything and then promptly delivered more towels, soap, and shampoo upon our request. I’ve stayed here multiple times and have always had a wonderful experience.

Our family of 6 adults and five children stayed here for a visit at Disney World, which is located very close by. Perfect place for small children as the hotel has great heated pools, entertainment rooms, basketball courts, several gym sets, and a soccer area. This resort could easily be utilized as a destination in itself Food choices are limited but ok for kids. Higher-​end restaurants are located nearby-​/​Bonefish. This resort is surrounded by lush landscaping, and our 2 bedroom suites had been tastefully decorated.
Our trip was part of an introduction to Marriott’s Vacation Club. We attended the 90-​minute explanation of the Club and were tempted to purchase. As my husband is facing uncertain health issues, we decided not to buy at this time. The Club is a bargain for those who travel and want to make memories with grandchildren.

This was our first time here and we were very happy with our stay. The resort was decorated for Christmas which was very nice. We had a first floor 2 bedroom /​2 bathroom condo with a water view. I don’t have one complaint about this resort. If I had to find something wrong, I would say the couch in the living room area wasn’t real comfortable since it was a sleeper sofa. The cushions don’t stay even. One other very minor issue is that the TV in the living area takes forever to respond to pushing buttons on the remote control. But you didn’t come to this resort to sit on the couch and watch TV, so those are very minor issues.
There are plenty of things to do here on this resort. Paddle boats, golf, swimming, kids area. One night they have a «kids night out» where the kids go to the lake house for three hours of activity. That gave my wife and I a night out for dinner.
If we needed something from the front desk we called and had it within minutes. The staff was very friendly and was able to help in any way we needed.
We’ll definitely stay here again when we’re back in the area.

I’ve stayed at several resorts in Orlando, so I’ve had my fair share of different brands and layouts. I must say that Marriott Cypress Harbour is the best resort that I’ve been to. It’s the older resort in the area and it takes the number 1 spot out of all the Marriotts in the Florida/​Caribbean region. They may not be the biggest resort in the area, but they are family oriented and have several different activities and amenities for everyone. There is no need to leave this property at all because they have everything you need on site. The location is perfect too. It’s centrally located so it’s minutes away from all the theme parks and big time restaurants. I’m sure you can throw a rock and hit any place you’d want to go. I highly recommend this resort for your Orlando vacation.

Nice Time Share space. We traded into this property to use some banked time while visiting Disney.
It’s very conveniently located a few exits away. It’s removed from the main drag of International Drive enough to have some privacy and quiet area. Our unit overlooked the lake/​pond, which had a nice fountain in the middle that was on a timer to come on at 8am to gently wake you up to the day.
The units had full-​sized washer/​dryers instead of the apt-​sized stackables that are in many time shares.
Free WiFi, and nice flat screens and DVD player in the living room. Screened in porch with ceiling fan and light so you can enjoy eating al fresco without the middle Florida bugs bothering you. Nice touch.
Nice spa and gym facility usually found only on the Marriott properties with a hotel attached.
I’d return.
