Within the huge Walt Disney Resort complex, Lake Buena Vista is right at the heart of the action, close to all of Orlando's main attractions - you'll be able to see most of them from your hotel room if you're blessed with a view of this sprawling, ever-growing playground. You might even see the spires and turrets of the Magic Kingdom, your nearest theme park neighbour.
Easy transport links whisk you between Sea World, the Epcot Centre, Downtown Disney and a raft of outlet malls and diners. It was in 1975 that this new development opened at Walt Disney World, just five miles from the Magic Kingdom.
The name - it means beautiful view - gave the district its own identity, perhaps in an effort to attract those who didn't fancy the idea of staying slap-bang in the middle of a theme park. That said, Walt Disney's complex is so huge, and so well designed, that you never really feel you're too close to the white knuckle rides and shopping malls.
The overall impression is of staying in a hyper-efficient small town with acres of rolling parkland, sparkling lakes, a reliable transport network and shops staying open sensible hours. Despite being a 'city' - Lake Buena Vista's official population is 15 (everyone else, like you, is a tourist!)
Yet dining is as varied as in any big city - with seafood, southern-cooking and the ubiquitous fast food joints all represented. Downtown Disney's shopping, theatres and nightlife offers more than enough fun for any holiday while Pleasure Island is a zone of pumping nightclubs, bowling alleys and blues joints. Westside features a Virgin megastore, themed restaurants a plenty, Cirque do Soleil's theatre show and DisneyQuest's indoor theme park, heavy on the 'virtual reality' rides.
In short, Lake Buena Vista is as near to the action as you're going to get but, with stylish good value hotels tucked between lakes and gardens, it's a family-friendly, well-scrubbed up suburb designed for hassle-free holidays.
