Disney Old Key West Resort re-creates the atmosphere of Florida Keys in the middle of a lush vegetation. It opened in December 1991.
Resort
Theme and atmosphere
The Key West theme is sustained by the pastel colors of the tin-roofed houses surrounded by palms and crushed seashells walkways. The symbol that stands out is the red-and-white lighthouse helping find your way through the resort.
The rooms are spacious, elegant and light. Shades of sweet yellows, greens, blues and flowery motifs create a friendly, intimate, cozy atmosphere.
