Not like the other unofficial quides June 1, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is not written in the same format as the other unofficial guides. This guide only covers a handful of resorts and has very little detail on the ones it does cover. The book is split up into sections and only covers about 10 hotels per area, come on these areas have hundreds of hotels. I mean I don't expect every one to be covered but it looks like the only ones they cover are the ones willing to pay to be in this crummy book. I own several of the unofficial guide books (the unofficial guide to Disney World is a lifesaver) and in the past have found them very useful and entertaining. The other unofficial guides have a lot of relevant information and tips on how to avoid crowds, when the best time to go is and sample itineraries' to help you get the most out of your vacation. This book has none of those things, it is poorly written with little information on the resorts and even less on what is around the resorts. To give an example the resort description says "great resort for families" but then has no information on child care or child activities. Great, why don't I just check out the resorts website and save 15 bucks! I understand this stuff changes all the time but the other books I in this series have first hand reviews of most of the hotels and attractions along with a guide to what is age appropriate. This book nope, none of that the resort information looks like it was copied of a press release. This book is a waste of money, the little information contains can be found for free at any of the web sites for the few resorts that it covers. Having traveled across the US and Europe and owned many many travel books I have to say this is about the worst one I've seen.
