Absolutely the get away place for couples or families. Excellent service, clean, friendly, did I mention good food, everything you need at your finger tips. Great birthday celebration!! Highly recommended.

I would love to give 5 stars but I cannot due to the room key issues. The property and our room was amazing. The service was outstanding. We had to go down to the front desk several times because our room keys would not work, nor would they work when trying to park in the self parking lot.

Fantastic time, i would come back. Service was wonderful people were so pleasant and heart warming. The restaurant manager took her time to talk to us and many others were so friendly. The rooms were so clean and the engineering dept were so accomidating because our washer needed repairs.

This place is great for those who like to sit and relax on vacation or for those who want to see, go and do while on vacation. It offers fun for all ages, and it's clean and beautifully manicured. My favorite things here are the lazy river pool (day and evening) the gardens, the accessibility to many amenities, the location to many fun things outside of resort, the number of other patrons (not too busy, but not secluded) and the all ages atmosphere.

This is the most beautiful property! The staff is amazing, they get to know you and your family. The grounds are gorgeous and well maintained, the rooms are large and fully equipped. There are always fun activities planned for young and old. Truly a hidden gem in Orlando.

Very nice MCVI property. Not too crowded and the staff goes out of their way to be friendly. Rooms are well laid out (we had a 2 bedroom suite). They feel even bigger than they are. The Marketplace could be better stocked with cooking basics (specifically seasonings - nothing beyond salt and pepper, literally) to help out folks cooking in their units.

This is a great property with fantastic bars and restaurants. We've never had a bad meal. The staff is always helpful. Keep in mind this is a large property and it can be busy with conferences etc. The golf course is a great bonus.

Nice place. Clean, attentive staff, nice rooms. I like the smaller-property feel. Well run. . Great option.

Love this place. It is a hidden gem and reasonably priced. The accommodations are attractive and clean. The amenities include a big pool and tennis courts. You also have access to the amenities at the nearby Marriott and Ritz.

Gorgeous grounds! The pool goes around an island with bridges connecting to it. The staff is all very friendly and helpful. There are on-grounds activities just about every 2 hours ranging from mixology classes to smores making. The on-site restaurant is pretty good, bit of a limited selection but not too bad. It's got a good kid's menu too. Decent cocktails and draft menu as well.

An exceptional resort for families of all ages. Every one of the staff is very helpful and friendly. The fitness center is the best and the "lazy river" pool is fun for everyone. You won't be disappointed with anything here.

AMAZING!! I have so much to say about this place. Great staff, lots of activities and it's in Orlando home of universal and Disney! The pool here is amazing as well. I come here once every year and wish I could stay FOREVER!

This place is so amazing and kid friendly. This is a must stay for anyone that is on a business trip or wanting a family vacation. We will definitely be coming back here every year for our family vacation.

Had a great week here. Lot's to do onsite. Great for the kiddos. The heated pools bumped from 4 to 5 stars!

An oasis in the busy Orlando area. Lovely rooms and amenities. James Hall and his team go above and beyond to deliver service and satisfaction. We love it!

Always welcoming. Our third time back. Great for relaxing and close enough to most of the attractions (Disney, Sea World, etc.)

Great location, beautiful property, well maintained. Room service is limited to pizza menu. The shower has a very low flow showerhead. If you have thick or long hair, you will be miserable. The one bedroom with a balcony was spacious for two. Highly recommend

Typical Marriott hospitality. The rooms are nice, spacious and well appointed, the staff are responsive and pleasant to deal with. The only blemish is the Blossom bar and grill where while everyone is still pleasant and helpful, they are way understaffed and overworked. There needs to be a system in place to we other deliver food to customers in a timely manner or a way of informing guests their food is ready. This is especially strange since another marriott vacation club - Harbour Lakes - has the pool bar/restaurant thing sussed. Other than that, super nice place to stay, friendly staff and very nice pool and surroundings.

Amazing timeshare property, feels more like a luxury hotel, great pool. It's small compared to most Orlando timeshares. It has access to most of the amenities at the JW Marriott next door (5min walk) and at the Ritz Carlton (much longer walk on the other side of JW Marriott).

Time share or daily rental - peaceful oasis away from the crowds but close to the action in Orlando. We have been coming with our family since it opened and love it.

One of the Best vacation clubs Marriott has to offer.. best staffing that are very dedicated to you having a great stay and experience.

Lovely hassle free vacation. Our condo was beautify decorated. One negative, the furniture, though pretty, was not comfortable.
We enjoyed several evenings at the onsite cafe and breakfast at the Ritz Carlton that shares the property with Lakeshore and a JW Marriott. The amenities at both hotels are available to Lakeshore guests.
Will we go back? Yes.

If their is a term which exceeds amazing or the absolute best, Marriot's Lakeshore Reserve will fall into that category. From the minute you drive up to the property, to going through the check in process, you are immediately treated warm, receptive and like you are at a home away from home. Great place for family, or couples. Very well appointed place to be on vacation. Now you have to remember this is Florida. What I mean it does get warm here, there are many little beautiful animals here. Too many wonderful things to say about this property. Come see and enjoy. One of the best of the best.

Lovely, compact resort. It was very quiet when we visited during the first week of December. Pool area and lazy river is huge and the water is warm. There is even a small lawn where there are various activities like ladderball, cornhole toss, ping pong, pool table, and even giant chess. Additionally, it was my brother’s birthday, and we mentioned it to the staff. First, the staff surprised us with a card and a balloon, then one of the staff, Junie, even gave us a cake! Overall it was a wonderful experience and is our favorite resort in Orlando. I can’t wait to come here again!

The Lakeshore Reserve is an amazing resort. The recreational areas behind the main building are beautiful and functionally dense. There's just so much to do. The lazy river, ping-pong and pool tables, and lots of foliage are all great. The rooms are nice, too, with ample space, exquisite style, and quality amenities. The staff are excellent; one even brought a cake to my room after she learned it was my birthday. When I realized the refrigerator light was broken, someone came in and fixed it immediately. I can't recommend Marriott's Lakeshore Reserve enough.

Just perfect! A bit pricey with fee's and parking if $75 per day.
Super clean and crisp. Just what we were looking for...

We love our stay here. The villa was spacious and nicely appointed. I would definitely stay here again.

Thus is a beautiful resort. Everything is clean and well stocked. As a guest of this resort, you can use the pool of the JW Marriott next door.

We were there for a sales pitch. It's a nice looking place and they provide child care during the meeting which is great. No wifi available though which is a downside for those who would like to get things done while waiting for their meeting to start.

Had a nice stay at this resort. Our sheets were dirty when we arrived (late) but they worked hard to fix the situation. The condo was nicely appointed and the pool was beautiful. It's in the middle between Universal and Disney and you can't really go much of anywhere without paying a toll.

It's a beautiful property but difficult to enjoy. I've group took over the pool to play (in their own words), aggressive volley ball. The walls are thin so we could hear everything our neighbors were saying.

Probably one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, excellent service, staff and amenities. We loved our 3 bedroom townhouse this past weekend and will certainly be back!

Exchange my Westgate Lakes timeshare for this hotel. And it was an excellent deal. Very nice pool with lazy river. Activities all day long. It is a 20 minute ride from Disney parks. They even let us use the JW Marriott pool. Other guests were well behaved people and we really enjoyed the property.

Well it's been pretty great but when we first got to the room there was blood on the sheets. The problem was quickly resolved when we called the front desk and everything else about the property and room has been wonderful. However that was just kind of a gross first impression.

Been here a couple times already. My family and I enjoy the pool. We can visit the JW pool as well. That is just amazing. Two nice big lazy rivers right next to each other. Great views. Nice staff. Lots to do.

Great place for a family. They have a pool with a lazy river and two dueling water slides. They also have an area with backyard games plus pool, table tennis, activities for kids. Rooms are well designed, spacious and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

The grounds are lovely. The lazy river is very relaxing. The rooms are spacious and the villa has everything you need. Water slides, and lots of activities for the kids. Have really enjoyed our stay

The resort is beautiful with a great pool. It was close to all the attractions. The rooms were very spacious.

Wonderful facilities. All of the staff were helpful and kind. Thier pool (aka: The Lazy River) kept the kids entertained for hours. They also have pretty interesting social events, like snow cone socials. Would stay again.

Truly amazing ,this is a new level of costumer service , remember that Quote :Costumer is always right , well this is the first time I experience on real Life , in this place Costumer is Always right and they take very seriously , they Fixed anything just to make you experience right , I will be coming back here till the end of time , this place is worst ever I Penny they charge , well done JW marriot

Lakeshore Reserve is the best of the MVC resorts in Orlando. The pool and grounds are elegant, it's never crowded, it's got two water slides and plenty of kid's activities, and it's adjacent to the JW Marriott and the Ritz Carlton. The dining options at those two hotels are fabulous. It's one of the main reasons we keep returning to this resort.

Check in was easy and the staff was very friendly. When arrived Received a delicious chocolate cookie and water.The room was large, very comfortable bed, all the amenities you need. Larger bath towels. We had a minor refrigerator issue we called front desk problem resolved instantly. Breakfast was wonderful great variety and flavorful waiter staff very attentive.

rooms were clean my sofa kit only had a blanket but other than that i was very pleased. The front desk was very accomodating and nice. Would recommend the property and the nice bar across the street. Loved the closeness to the freeway and all the restaurants were pretty close with a good selection also.

This was the first time staying here and we will likely return. Beautifully maintained property and lots of activities. Nice pool for paddling around, but not lap swimming. Take noodles, or buy them there.

as platinum member we stayed in amazing places, great Hotels, beautifull spots, but believe me, THIS BEATS THEM ALL. safety, clean, spacious, the most wonderful spot in the whole of Orlando, we stayed here and also in the ritz carlton on the same ground which we refer to later in another review. we had a bungalow looking over the lake and golf course, never seen such an amazing place, and perfect perfect accomodation, Innisbrook golfcoourse appartments are super, but this is incomparable good

Very friendly and accommodating. Not much dinning choice at the lakeshore reserve, but they will shuttle you over the the JW next door for free with great dinning options.

Stayed 2 days during the week of Thanksgiving. Perfect mini-vacation for the family. Had also visited in September for a girls' weekend and we also enjoyed. Lazy river wasn't busy for either stay. Kids (and adults!) really enjoyed floating around and all the other activities offered (pool tables, ping pong, bocce ball, corn hole, ladderball, chess, shuffle board, water slide!) Stayed in 2 bd townhouse with family, which was really nice. Since we live a few hours away, this will definetly be a weekend getaway in the future.

Beautiful setting with spacious rooms. Amenities include lazy river and slides at the pool. Golf and tennis is available on premise. Conveniently located next to the J.W. Marriott and Ritz.

The villas are roomy and well appointed. The lazy river is nice, but maybe a little too lazy. The water slides are a blast! It was a nice relaxing day enjoying the pool and soaking up the sun. If and when I return to Orlando, this would be my first choice!

We stayed at one villa and it was huge! Very comfortable and it had everything you need in a house. My daughter enjoyed the pool, and I enjoyed the quietness. The villa was for 12 people but we were only 8 so we were more than comfortable. I had graduated and they had asked me if we were celebrating something so they received me with a balloon and a letter congratulating me (I am the kind of person who gets excited with the little deatils) so that was huge for me!

Clean. Beautiful. Spacious. Relaxing. Quiet.

Absolutely fantastic experience. Unit exceeded our expectations. Everyone that works here had been super nice and helpful. Pool and lazy river are awesome. Pool bar has great lunch options and is reasonably priced.

Hotel was clean and nice. The overall surrounding area was great! I wish I got to spend more time at the pool area as it looked gorgeous!

Beautiful room (3112) on the first floor. They were doing some renovations, but it wasn't super intrusive. Neighbors, however, were quite loud.

Visited friends who own a timeshare at the Villas. We enjoyed great fun family activities. cocktails and food The lazy river was a blast too. Emplyees including grounds people were so polite professional and fun. Seemed aware that Hurricane Matthew had shaken us all up and worked hard at distracting us, the kids and making our time there as pleasant as,possible.

The suite was amazing and had everything needed for the nights stay. TV was confusing but that's a minor issue. Employees were nice and pool is amazing

We were there for a sales pitch. It's a nice looking page and they provide child care during the meeting which is great. No wifi available though which is a downside for those who would like to get things done while waiting for their meeting to start.

Beautiful hotel! I couldn't imagining wanting to stay somewhere else. Pool is amazing and the staff is extremely pleasant.

Expensive Parking. $22 for any time longer than 15 minutes. We were there less than an hour and had to pay the full day rate.

Typical Marriott hospitality. The rooms are nice, spacious and we'll appointed, the staff are responsive and pleasant to deal with.

Marriott's Lakeshore Reserve is a great resort with a relaxing lazy river, good bar food, and fun activities for kids. The lazy river never seems too crowded and the water temperature is at a comfortable level; warm and refreshing. There is shuffle board, bags, ladder ball, and bocce ball in a nice grassy area. There are events throughout the day for both kids and adults like tye-die shirt making, bingo, cookie making, cocktail making, etc. The tree house is a fun play area indoors for kids with video games, books, games, and other activities for kids. There is also a good selection of movies that you can borrow at no charge to watch in your room.

You can also use the pool/lazy river at the JW Marriott and a Ritz Carlton that are on the property. It is a nice walk by a couple lakes and golf course to get to the other hotels. It is a great place for a vacation!

Always a five star experience when staying here. Great amenities, rooms & friendly helpful staff.

The room was perfect and the service was amazing!

Amazing service. The rooms are clean and has everything you would need for a luxury home away from home. Quiet and private from the busy Orlando. It's a brief drive from Seaworld, Disney & Universal. The only downside would be the size of the TV. It's a little small.

Lovely place. First time staying at this one. Good service. I say good only because the gate for the pool has been broken since we got here and have told them numerous times and yet someone still has to fix it. Do they need a tragedy before something gets done? Many small children are here. Otherwise very nice place....ok update. As of our 5th day here, the fountain has been fixed or addressed 2 times in 3 days but yet nothing has been done about broken gate for the pool. Priorities i guess. Childrens life dont matter as long as the pool and fountains look good

This was our first time staying at this resort and it won't be our last. We have previously stayed at the adjacent JW and nearby Grande Vista. This property provides a more relaxing and tropical experience as the grounds are exceptional. The resort is much smaller compared to other Marriott Vacation Clubs which provides even more personal service from staff members. We also noticed how clean the entire property was. You also get to experience all the pools and outdoor activities of the JW and Ritz Carlton. Just stay here!
