Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa Grounds Tour
Facilities and Amenities
June 2013
Lets start at the beginning.
This is the main entrance carport to the Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa.
Venturing past the carport you encounter this bronze horse and jockey photo
op.
The entrance to the Carriage House which contains the check-in area.
A carriage sits just outside the Carriage House.
The check-in area of the Saratoga Springs Resort.
We recommend using the on-line check-in option before arriving at your Disney resort.
This will significantly decrease your check-in time.
However, be aware that your room may not be ready when you check-in.
In that situation, Disney will send a text to your cell phone as soon as the room
does become available.
You will not need to return to the check-in desk because your key card or
magic band will automatically be activated to open your room's door lock at
that time.
There is a cozy sitting area just off the check-in area.
A Disney merchandise area just past the sitting area.
Another view of the shopping area.
Just to the left of the shopping area is the
Saratoga Springs food court.
We find this to be small compared to other resorts, but the offerings were
adequate.
Video Menu panels display the food offerings.

Disney has started having a love affair with flatbreads recently.
They've been replacing items on menus across the Walt Disney World property.
In our opinion, they aren't very good.
They seem to be made in a central kitchen and then distributed to various
counter service locations across property to be re-heated.
The 'flatbread' isn't very bread-ey. Instead, it is cracker-like; a tough,
chewy cracker at that.
We've tried them at a couple locations and have found them to be
consistently disappointing.
Turkey and brie sandwiches.
Italian hoagies.
More rice crispy treats than I've ever dreamed about.
Cookies, danishes, cup cakes, and fruit selections.
A very small selection of regular groceries are available.
Don't worry about having to face a family vacation sober.
A selection of beers and wines are also available.
Some refrigerated drink and snack selections.
Adjacent to the food counter and retail area is the dining area.
This area is supposed to resemble an artist's loft.
Shirts worn by jockeys are called silks.
This silk features not-so-hidden Mickeys.
Down a hallway from the food court dining area is a lounge that doubles
as a waiting area for the Turf Club Bar and Grill.
There is even a pool table for entertainment.
The interior of the Turf Club Bar and Grill.
This is the sit down restaurant option for the resort.
Exiting out of the front of the building near the Turf Club leads to the
boat dock and water transportation to Downtown Disney.
