With help from our friends at DVC Rental Store, we were recently able to stay in a 3-bedroom Grand Villa at Disney’s Old Key West Resort. One of these villas sleeps up to 12 guests, so the entire family can go on your Walt Disney World trip.

Disney’s Old Key West Grand Villa Exterior

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 1

Old Key West is a charming resort with pastel-colored buildings and white picket fences.

A 3-bedroom villa takes up the second and third floors of the building, on top of smaller villas.

We were in the pink grand villa.

Entryway

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 52

These villas have been updated, but thankfully weren’t just made plain. There is a lovely tile in the entryway, followed by a checkered wood floor.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 53

There is a mirror in a white frame with a seashell on top. A shelf below the mirror is perfect for keys or purses. There’s also a set of outlets.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 54

A short hallway branches off from the entryway, leading to the primary bedroom and a bathroom, which we’ll circle back to. This is also where the thermostat is.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 99

The stairs are in the entryway and next to them is a closet holding vacuums. As this is a DVC room, you don’t get daily housekeeping, so you may need to clean up a bit yourself.

Living Room

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 55

Onto the living room, which has a tall ceiling, a ceiling fan, and high windows.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 56

These villas are well-lit without being overly lit.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 57

There is a table with chairs in here, as well as sofas and an armchair. They all fit comfortably in the space.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 70

Our one gripe about the remodel of Old Key West is the area rug, which looks like a garish colorful camouflage. The colors themselves fit, but the pattern doesn’t, despite its hidden Mickeys.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 58

There are quite a few standard outlets, although we were surprised that USB outlets have not yet been installed.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 60

The second floor looks down on the first.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 61

There’s a loveseat and a full-size couch, both in a light brown color. The armchair and ottoman are light blue.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 63

We love the lifeguard chair lamp on the table in the corner. It has a hidden Mickey on the back and the switch is on the base.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 64

The room phone is also on this table.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 65

There is framed artwork of coral hanging on the living room wall.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 66

There are curtains and blinds to close over all the windows and glass doors. We love how many windows are in these villas, with a view in almost every direction.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 68

There’s a mounted TV above a wood cabinet. Since the living room can be a sleeping space, there are drawers for storage.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 69
Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 134

The armchair and the full-size couch are both hiding beds.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 135

After removing the cushion from the armchair, you’ll see directions for unfolding the bed.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 139

Here is what both look like unfolded.

Patio

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 71

There’s a large patio/balcony, with doors leading from the living room and the main bedroom.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 72

It has a table with four chairs. There’s enough room to bring a couple more chairs out if you want.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 73

There’s a beautiful view of the grounds from here.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 74

There’s also a ceiling fan on the patio.

Dining & Kitchen

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 77

There are eight chairs at the main dining table, and four at the table in the living room, so 12 in total.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 78

These chairs have white frames, orange seat cushions, and striped back cushions.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 79

A metal light fixture hangs over the dining table.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 80

While most of the artwork is paintings, this one is a large photograph from Key West.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 81

There are open doorways between the dining area and the living room and entryway.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 82

The kitchen space is pretty big, with light gray marble countertops and an island with storage space.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 83

If you prefer to cook rather than dine exclusively at restaurants, these kinds of accommodations may be ideal.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 85

The island has a slightly shorter section of counter space. There are large shelves inside the cabinet doors here.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 86

The kitchen is stocked with every appliance you need to cook your own meals. In the cabinets are cooking supplies, glasses, plates, utensils, etc.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 87

A Sunbeam double toaster is ready and waiting on the counter.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 88

We appreciate the windows in the kitchen, letting you look out the front and appreciate the Old Key West architecture.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 89

The coffee machine is Stay by Cuisinart. Bags of the Joffrey’s resort blend, creamer, and sugar packets are in a caddy to the right.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 90

The refrigerator is a good size with lots of space.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 91

Here’s a look at the interior of the fridge and freezer.

Laundry

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 93

Off the kitchen is a small room holding the washer and dryer. There’s also an iron, ironing board, and laundry basket.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 96

With the option of having a washer and dryer in your room, you can do your laundry on your schedule and pack less — meaning you have more room to bring home souvenirs.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 97

Behind the door to the laundry room are more cleaning supplies, this time being various brooms and mops.

First Bathroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 46

This small bathroom is just off the main hallway, and is meant for anyone sleeping or hanging out in the living room. There’s a toilet, sink, and walk-in shower all in one room.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 47

Many of the walls in this villa are this soft green color. The shower doorway is lined with beautiful marble.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 49

We love toilet art! This piece showcases a boat on a beach, with a hidden Mickey on the bow.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 50

The shower is gray with a stripe of wavy tile down the far wall. The center of the showerhead can pop out if you’d like to use it handheld.

Primary Bedroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 6

Across from that bathroom is the primary bedroom, which has its own bathroom, too.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 7

Here, there’s a king bed with a dark wood headboard resembling shutters. At the foot of the bed is a bench with a green cushion.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 20

The linens are a boring striped white that we see everywhere now, but that’s at least balanced by an interesting carpet pattern.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 8

Across the bed is a three-drawer dress, a longer bench, a large mirror, and a TV.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 9

There’s a door in the corner leading out to the patio. It has a shade to lower that matches the window curtains.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 10
Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 12

The dresser has a marble top and built-in outlets.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 14

Here, there are standard outlets and USB ports.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 13

There’s more storage with two large drawers in this bench.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 15

Plus two drawers on each end table. The tables have large lamps on top of them, but there’s still plenty of space to set other things on top.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 16

This artwork features the Old Key West fence featuring Mickey cutouts.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 18

There’s a seating area with two armchairs and a matching ottoman/table, as well as a standing lamp.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 21

Main Bathroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 22

A window in the room peeks into the jacuzzi tub.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 23

There are folding shutters to close for more privacy.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 24

That said, there is no door at the entrance to the bathroom area.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 26

There’s a step up to the tub and a seat built into it.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 45

Here’s a view from the tub looking out through the privacy window into the bedroom.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 43

Across from the tub is a spacious closet, with extra pillows and blankets.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 44

The safe is built into the right wall of the closet. It has an actual key, not a keypad.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 29

The walls here are yellow and blue. There’s a long mirror above the double vanity, with lighting behind it.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 30

There are two sinks and two sets of deep cabinets, plus the not-so-deep cubbies in the center.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 31

There’s a thin shelf below the mirror.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 32

A full-length mirror is on the door that leads to the toilet.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 34

There is also a step-in shower, with the same marble frame and wavy tiles as the other shower. A switch by the double vanity controls the lighting in the shower.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 35

This shower is much bigger than the other one.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 37

This doorway leads to the toilet.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 38

There’s a nearly opaque window that lets in some extra light.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 41

The art is behind the toilet, rather than in front of it, but is a schematic of a boat called the Pyewacket. This is a real boat owned by competitive sailor and grandson of Roy O. Disney, Roy P. Disney.

Stairs

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 98

The carpet on the stairs has the same labyrinthine pattern as the bedroom carpet.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 100

There’s sailboat artwork and windows overlooking the staircase.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 104

Here’s a closer look.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 103

Going up the stairs are levels that look to be ripe for some kind of décor or other visual additions.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 102
Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 105

There’s more art on the wall to the right from coming upstairs, next to a closet.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 106

A closet at the top of the stairs has more vacuums, cleaning supplies, extra towels, and extra bedding.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 109

This open hallway upstairs offers views of the living room below.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 108

Here’s a look at that view.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 110

There are two bedrooms upstairs.

Second Bedroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 120

There are also two beds in this bedroom. These bed frames are not lifted up off of the floor enough to allow for storage underneath.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 121

This art print shows the various distances from Key West to places like Tortuga (referencing Pirates of the Caribbean), Honolulu (in the “Lilo & Stitch” font), and Magic Kingdom. If you know your Magic Kingdom attractions, you’ll know this sign is the same shape as those on top of the Jungle Cruise boats. The nail holding up this sign is also a hidden Mickey.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 122

A closet is to the right of the bathroom.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 124

This closet connects to the closet door in the bathroom.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 123

No need to leave one room to get to the closet in the other! We’re not sure if we’ve ever seen this in any other Disney resort.

First Upstairs Bathroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 126

Despite the large countertop, this bathroom just has a single-sink setup.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 127

The bathroom counter includes four shelves and one cabinet door to store your toiletries, towels, and other items.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 128

The mirror behind the sink is large but doesn’t take up the entire wall space.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 129

This bathroom has a standard tub and shower.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 130

You get plenty of natural light from this round window.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 131

The art above the toilet is of sand dollars painted in different colors.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 133

A full-length mirror is on the door leading to the toilet and shower.

Third Bedroom

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 111

The walls behind the beds in these rooms are light blue. This is the bigger of the two upstairs bedrooms, but they both have two beds.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 112

These beds are bigger than the beds in the other upstairs bedroom.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 114

This is not our favorite of the rooms, we don’t enjoy the large room with an overabundance of white walls.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 115
Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour Disneys Old Key West Resort Minnie Beach Art

Next to the bed on the left of the room is our favorite of the newer art at Disney’s Old Key West Resort, with Minnie at the beach.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 116

The side table in the center of the two beds offers large drawers for storage.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 117

We love this themed Conch Flats bench. It doesn’t open for storage, but it’s a good place to sit or lay out your luggage.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 118

This chair doesn’t unfold into a sleeper.

Disneys Old Key West Resort Grand Villa Hotel Room Tour 119

There’s also a TV and a dresser in this room.

Second Upstairs Bathroom

This bathroom is the same as the bathroom on the other side.

Old Key West Villa Second Upstairs Bathroom 1

The sink is a single vanity, with a toilet and shower in the adjoining room.

Old Key West Villa Second Upstairs Bathroom 2

This room has a different showerhead and a square window rather than a circular one.

Old Key West Villa Second Upstairs Bathroom 3

The art above the toilet here is of tops of umbrellas on the beach — at least, that’s our interpretation.

Overall Thoughts

We love Disney’s Old Key West Resort. It feels so homey. Sure, not everyone needs a 3-bedroom Grand Villa, but the other rooms are very reasonably sized and they’re fun.

When staying here, you’ve also got substantial offerings outside of the rooms; Olivia’s is a great restaurant, and the Gurgling Suitcase is a really fun pool bar. The pools themselves are also nice. It’s a pretty area and a very cozy place to stay. There’s something about Disney’s Old Key West Resort that feels like old Disney and we love it.
