Tropical Palms RV Resort

This park has a mix of sites at different prices. I was impressed with the communication from management via text. Some sites are excellent and some just ok. The back right corner is in grass/mud and looked like full time RVs. We enjoyed the pickleball court, fitness room and laundry. We would stay here again but would request a different site.

Conveniently located near Disney and many other Orlando area attractions, it is also surrounded by many restaurants, and near main roads. Personnel is very friendly and caring, they make their customers their first priority, and also keep the grounds in excellent shape, as it is also the case for all recreational facilities. I stayed in a full hook-up site, everything worked well, I had a concrete picnic area with a table. The sites are about the right size, I do have a comfortable 22 ft TT.

Check in and check out was very fast, they have several reps to keep waiting time shortest possible. I liked the location, it is out of the craziness of International Drive, but not too far either in case that you want to also be part of that evening movement. In my short stay I did not experience any problems.

Pros:
- only stayed here for a night, and got in at dark, but seemed to have good amenities

Cons:
- Tight, tight, tight! Tight driveways and corners. Tight pads. We drive a 40ft Class and if someone parks there car slightly into the driveway area, makes getting in and out of your spot hairy.
- No free WiFi. And we had no cell service. You could buy WiFi through third party, but seemed like a hassle. Just another way the Orlando complex makes money.
- Trees not trimmed. My biggest pet peeve for an RV park is when they don’t trim their tree limbs. We’re at 13’ and hit a few tree limbs driving to our spot
- Muddy! Not their fault entirely since it’s Florida and it was raining all day. But it was a mess setting up.
- Expensive. It was a Wannabe Disney Wilderness and for the price, I wouldn’t stay here again. Maybe all Orlando RV parks are like this because they can gouge you. But I’ll take my chances elsewhere.

This park was a perfect place to be right outside Orlando and close to Disney and all the other activities in the area. It is right behind Old Town as well. We did go to Legoland while here and it was about 1 hour drive. We did not go to the beach, but I think it would take 1-1.5 hours depending on traffic. During Christmas / New Years time it was really busy and the area nearby had a ton of traffic, but that is a bit to be expected in this area.

Getting here was not so bad except that some highways had construction.

We were in the section of pull thru FHU spots in the middle of the park that are really nice, concrete pad with extra space on each side. Our spot was a bit tough to get in because of the location of the palm tree and the size of our RV, but not a big deal. Some of the spots in the back of the park were larger but not concrete. Tradeoffs...

Almost every day of the week they had activities and on the weekend there was a DJ and all kinds of stuff at the pool.

Some of the bath houses were under construction or had problems while we were here, but I think that is because of the high use of the park - the good news is they were constantly working on things - this park is in great condition.

Because of proximity to Old Town and Disney, there was noise at night time (nothing crazy, but we could hear things) and the fireworks bothered our dog.

We will almost certainly stay here again when we come to the area!

haven't checked in yet..... it is 11:20 am , trying to beat a thunder storm...check in time is 1:pm..They will not budge unless I pay $25.00 fee.. bullcrap....so i sit in there parking lot until they let me in....

The elite sites have pull-through concrete slabs. Nice Palm trees, and the laundry facility is top-notch. The pool is clean, and the campground is very secure 24x7. Close to Disney resorts as well. Avoid the back section where full-timers dwell. It's not as nice for various reasons.

After slogging through ORLANDO traffic, I was hoping for a decent site....this place is In a severe state of disrepair.

It's in the heart of Kissimmiee so it is pretty close to Disney - 10 miles or so.
Sites are very close together and was pretty full. The premium sites were concrete and pretty long. In the heart of everything so all is close by. Old Town and the Fun Spot is walking distance. A fair amount of noise early till late because of the proximity to everything. Staff was nice and helpful. Bathrooms were in fair shape. Lots of people coming and going all the time. ATT worked god as did the park wifi. Roads were all paved but many were very thin so be aware of this. Satellite could be a problem depending which site you are in as there are a number of trees.

We normally stay at Ft Wilderness while in Orlando, but they were full. This is a great alternative, clean, friendly, quiet. Good WiFi service; cell was 'ok.'

A very nice RV resort.

We stayed here because Fort Wilderness was full. The park is surrounded by kitschy souvenir shops wrapped in bald eagle murals, Machine Gun America (the "Orlando Shooting Attraction") and the carnival rides of Old Town. The park has a retiree vibe and my toddler was happy to swim in the tiki-themed pool with elderly snowbirds.

We visited Celebration, just down the road. It's a curious place and filled an afternoon.

All the Disney Parks and Disney Springs are a 15 minute drive. I really prefer Fort Wilderness for a million reasons, but this place a welcome respite from its surround and is fine if you don't mind being outside of the Disney Bubble.
