Disney's Vero Beach Resort Owners Thread

I was looking for a Vero thread under Non-Theme Park resorts! Haven't visited Vero yet but it's on my list. I love a "do nothing" beach vacation! Favorite time of year to visit? Favorite local restaurants to try? Any tips are welcome!

I’m here now. No Derek D here now. He must be selling contracts.

Anyways , own at VB. Sad to see Tino is no longer here. He was always a good memory of trips. Very helpful when we rented kayaks.

I’m here now. We love April. Also have been in the summer. That can be very hot. But you always have the oceans. Summer seems to be worse for the no see ums. Those little buggers hurt.

Resort food is decent. But we defintely venture off one or two times. We love going into Vero Beach (about 15 minutes south of resort ) and walking around town. Facorite place to eat is El Sid’s Taqueria. Great food. Plus their ice cream and slushes are delicious. Orange juice slushy is great ; even better when added to vanilla soft serve.

We also go north into Sebastian and eat at Squid Lips. It’s an open air restaurant over the water. And after you can go on the dock and feed the catfish that swim up to the dock. A quick option from the resort right down the street is Beach Bites. They have great sandwiches.

Also check out the Environmental Learning Center minutes from the resort. Many parks , beaches and even art museum right in the town of Vero Beach.

Maybe it should be moved to the Non-Theme Park section? I didn't think about that when I created the thread. It's a little gray area, you get free parking at the parks, (member staying on points), and you qualify for midnight magic early registration, if you have a villa booked.

I didn't know about the parks parking or the Midnight Magic. Very cool!

I'm here! Sorry was helping folks learn about the wonderful world of used magical timeshare and SO excited to see a Vero thread started! Truly my fave - I can't imagine hoenstly how different my vacation & family memories would be over the last 20 years without Vero as a part of our lives! We just did a GREAT 3 night Dec trip and I can't wait to go back (I need more points....where can I get those ;) - keep up the love for Vero - I so love when folks tell me that they went to Vero for the first time after hearing me talk about it for so many years and how much THEY in turn loved it!
