A wide shot of the Coronado Springs resort tower, a large light-colored building, viewed across a calm body of water under a blue sky with scattered clouds. Green trees line the distant shore.
Coronado
This is my favorite resort to stay at in Disney, Coronado springs. The atmosphere is so nice and clamming. I always stay in the tower because it has the best rooms and the best views. In the front rooms in the tower you are able to see tower of terror in Hollywood Studios as well as the epcot ball.
