As I started today’s article, an in depth look at the once grand Villas
of Lake Buena Vista, I came to a sudden realization. There is simply no way
that I could compile a more thorough picture than the one already crafted in
Michael Crawford’s terrific piece: Lake Buena Vista Chronicles - Selling The Magic, 1972.
As I read through this narrative, it was the imagery that accompanied
the piece that really made it strike home with me just how grand a stay in the
villas must have been in the 1970s. If anything, that was the area where I felt
I could add something to the conversation, to further delve into what life was
like in those villas. With that in mind let’s take a tour of the villas, circa
1978. Oh, and while we are on our tour, please try not to gawk at the fashion
sense of the guests, they weren’t told any better!

We stayed in the villas in February of 1976...we felt like we were living like kings. The villas were beautiful and HUGE! It was my just my grandparents and my sister and I, and I remember my grandmother remarking that it would be the perfect place for a Thanksgiving dinner for the whole family (the dining room and table seemed that big). These pictures bring back great memories.
