History

The hotel opened on October 15, 1972, as the Dutch Inn, the 3rd hotel to open on Walt Disney World property, located on Hotel Plaza Boulevard. It was later sold to Fort Worth-based Americana Hotels and rebranded as Americana's Dutch Resort Hotel, later slightly modified to the Americana Dutch Resort Hotel. Americana Hotels sold the resort to Grosvenor Properties in August 1986 for $33 million,[1] and the hotel became the Grosvenor Resort. In 1988, following an $8 million renovation, the hotel joined Best Western Hotels[2] and briefly operated as the Best Western Grosvenor, before becoming the Grosvenor Resort again. On September 1, 2007, the Grosvenor Resort was renamed the Regal Sun Resort as part of a $25 million renovation.[3] The hotel joined Wyndham Hotels and Resorts on November 9, 2010, and became the Wyndham Lake Buena Vista.[4] The two low-rise wings of the hotel are operated as a budget hotel, the Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista Disney Springs Resort Area, which shares facilities with the main hotel.
