Here’s what a guest from Ohio had to say about The Seralago Hotel & Suites on TripAdvisor.
We stayed at the Seralago Aug 8th-13th room 704 and was very pleased with the hotel. Check in was quick and the clerk was so friendly. There were 4 adults and 2 children so we got a suite. It was very nice and roomy. very clean and the beds were not too bad. We ate at the breakfast bar and thought it was very good,good variety and things that kids like. The servers were so nice, they took time with the kids and were patient with them. We had left to go to Disney and came back tired that night but we had a nice surprise, for the housekeeper (Ana Patricia} had cleaned and straightened our room, putting our groceries and kitchen items away neatly on the shelves. The kids stuffed animals were arranged in an order as if they were greeting us when we came in. I could not really find anything that was wrong with the room,it was so clean. Everyone that we met that worked there were super nice. They have a nice shuttle bus to transport guests to Disney and other places. Even the bus driver was so nice and joked around with us. We didn’t have time to take advantage of the pool but it did look really nice and clean The game room was nice for the kids and the general store had reasonable prices. Our stay there was very enjoyable and I will recomend this to my framily and friends. Thanks Seralago for giving us a pleasurable vacation.
Stayed August 2011, traveled with family

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. It is celebrated on the last Monday in May.
In 1915, inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields,” Moina Michael replied with her own poem:
We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.
She then came up with the idea to wear red poppies on Memorial Day in honor of those who died serving the nation during war. Shortly before Memorial Day in 1922, the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) became the first veterans’ organization to nationally sell poppies. Two years later their “Buddy” Poppy program was selling artificial poppies made by disabled veterans. Donations received from the distribution of the Poppies are used to benefit disabled and needy veterans, and the surviving spouses and children of those who gave their lives for our country.
 Poppy Seralago Hotel & Suites employees are wearing If you are staying with us at the Seralago Hotel & Suites this holiday weekend, you will notice all our employees wearing these Poppies in honor of those heroes who have given their all in service to their country. The National Moment of Remembrance Resolution, passed on December 2000, asks all Americans, on Memorial Day at 3:00pm, “to voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a moment of remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to Taps.” We hope that on Memorial Day, at 3:00pm local time, you will join us in a “National Moment of Remembrance”.

“More than it looks”
We were a little leery of the “motel-like” appearance but were pleasantly surprised! The Kid Suites were PERFECT for the kids. It created a total separate area in the room for the kids with their own TV and 3 beds (Bunk beds and a twin). The kids loved it and so did we! The pool was heated which was a plus in March. Will definitely stay here again if we’re in the area!
Area recommendations
You must go to Fun Spot. It very close to the hotel and worth the money!

We’ve been hard at work planning our Easter Fun. Here at the Seralago Hotel & Suites, we are known for our family friendly activities. You know you can always count on plenty of fun for the whole family. This year, the Easter fun begins on April 18th, with fun and games in our hotel lobby. And of course there will be plenty of prizes!
 Decorating Eggs Be sure to stop by our lobby each morning from April 18th through April 22nd for Easter fun and games. Returning again this year, is our annual egg decorating. We’ll be in the lobby on Friday, April 22nd, looking for some artistic guests (both young and old) who are not afraid to get their hands dirty. Last year, our Food and Beverage Director, cooked approximately 8 dozen eggs for us! Do you like your eggs decorated using just one color or a mix of different colors?
In 2010, we started something new, an Easter Scavenger Hunt. Our younger guests had so much fun with it, that we decided to bring it back again this year! Starting on Wednesday, April 20th you will see our younger guests traveling around the hotel looking for clues. The Scavenger Hunt ends on Friday with the winner announced at the Seralago Easter Egg Hunt Eggs-Travaganza on Saturday morning.
Speaking of the Seralago Easter Egg Hunt Eggs-Travaganza - have you been? Our guests have a great time!
 Ready, Set, Go... This year the staff will be out early in the morning on Saturday, April 23rd, hiding approximately 700 plastic eggs filled with candy and special prizes. Coffee, juice, doughnuts and danish will be served at the pool bar for our guests as they wait for the festivities to begin. We have lots of goodies waiting to be claimed by those lucky enough to uncover the eggs with special messages inside.
Whether you are guessing the number of jellybeans in the jar, decorating eggs, traveling the hotel on a scavenger hunt or searching for hidden eggs; It’s always a fun time at the Seralago Hotel & Suites. We hope you can join us for some Easter Fun!

 Dear Santa
I would like to thank you for a wonderful weekend at your hotel. This stay was one of your most fun filled weekend we have had it a long time. The room was perfect, staff was excellent and my boys loved, loved the Christmas decor. Santa sleeping 3 doors down was so exciting to my 4yr old. I have never seen that and thought it was brilliant!! The tree contest in the lobby was fun to see the different tress. My one son asked it Santa left those gifts up your big center tree LOL. It was just an all around nice trip. We ordered pizza & fries Saturday night from the food court. GREAT!! We had a great chat with the lady at the cash register while we waiting. She was so nice and my oldest son enjoyed talking with her.
Again, you made the stay wonderful and we most definitely will return. Thank you for your time and concern.
Sincerely,
Carrie & Frank

You may have seen this before, but I thought it was worth sharing.
T’was the night of Thanksgiving,
But I just couldn’t sleep.
I tried counting backwards,
I tried counting sheep.
The leftovers beckoned -
The dark meat and white,
But I fought the temptation
With all of my might.
Tossing and turning with anticipation,
The thought of a snack became infatuation.
So, I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door,
And gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
Gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.
I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
‘Til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.
I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky,
With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.
But, I managed to yell as I soared past the trees…
Happy eating to all - Pass the cranberries, Please.
