1 Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando Disney Springs Area Families and value-conscious Disney visitors who want easier access to off-park meals without losing the Disney-area base. Use Disney Springs for the bigger meals, keep Lake Buena Vista as the lower-friction backup, and avoid assuming every dinner needs to happen on Disney property. Skip it if you want a full Disney resort environment or if you do not plan to spend meaningful time around Disney Springs. 84
