Looking at the renderings on their website; Resort Hotel Beach style resort pool/lagoon area Vacation rental cottages Eventually a water park, but no word on whether that is open to the public or just resort guests etc Drove by a few times over the last few weeks and it looks huge!

Does anyone have any information on the planned opening date for the new Margaritaville Resort on the 192? There's an updated website to register for updates etc, but so far, no clues about an actual opening date anywhere online etc.

For the immense amount of time and money invested, the Na'vi River Journey is probably the most underwhelming of Disney's recent efforts at WDW. There seemed to be a lack of substance to the ride itself.

There was an advantage for owners to sell as the exchange rates devalued overseas currencies against the dollar. Although it was expensive to VISIT the USA, it was sometimes advantageous for overseas investors to SELL their Florida homes. Owners could even sell their properties for a lower $...

Golden Oaks is a lovely place, for most of us a Lotto win away! There are lots of lovely new homes at more affordable prices and we have a good series of blog articles to guide people through their first buying process. The articles are broken into sections for easy reading and we take a very...

We get you, but I think that Universal is challenging the traditional Orlando area travel market. Short stays are easy at Universal and very appealing to a market that WDW struggles with; Families with Teenagers!

We enjoyed seeing the scale of the new water park, and the quality of the slides and rides. Sure, it was a little worrying that so much needed fixing, but, that will undoubtedly get fixed very soon. I kind of felt sorry for the people involved. They were busting their bits off to make the...

From the Margarita Village Blog, it looks likely that a very 'laid back' tropical themed resort will be headed to Central Florida some time in 2017. A theme that will be very familiar to CityWalk guests and fans of Jimmy Buffet's 'island escapism' music and looks set to feature some really cool...

The fact that it is one of Central Florida's original attractions, long before Disney arrived, is good enough an excuse to visit. It's a symbol of America recovering from WWII and has that old charm still this day. In the shadow of the big parks, Gatorland just can't compete, but if you go there...

I can't see how the personal shopping services can survive this one! It's a shame, because they plugged a big gap in the market for so long, and also put a huge amount of effort into offering a quality service! Still, it does look as though they can service the non US market for a while, as it...

Love it!!!! Sometimes it is really easy to lose sight of what D23 is all about. The intrigue does show that Disney could do with using the Disney Parks Blog much more effectively though. After all, that's where we really should be finding out more about the park developments.

This whole thread is a complete DREAM and FANTASY! Hey, wait a minute, isn't that what makes WDW so special? We are hoping, and dreaming that this could be the whole future for Future World! Nice thinking OP!

It's the secondary technologies that the Apple Watch will leap into popularity over. Contactless transactions, ID verification, GoPro competition, etc etc. Right now, I'd be much happier if Apple made an iphone that could really last the day without a Mophie Jacket!!!!

OMG a grilled cheese donut!!!! Everyone has to try at least one!!

I know Ten Bucks is a lot for Grilled Cheese, but by theme park standards it's not a bad deal at all. $30 to try the lot is a very tempting Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner plan! Disney look like they are upping their game in the 'food truck' stakes!
