I'm heading down there in a month-only two nights (business trip), was going to check this out. My question is-other than these locations, is there anywhere else you can smoke? I heard it's tough to find a place to light up. I'm staying at a Disney hotel, and I guess they have huge charges even if you smoke on the room patio. If smoking *** are going to dog me, I may just have to pay the high prices...not a big "Disney" guy-my kids are raised and I've been there, done that...so...I just want to enjoy a couple of sticks. Thoughts on this? I had planned to pack a few of my own.

They have smoking areas at each hotel. Depending where you stay some are kinda tranquil
Old Key West is no problem on the patios since it is secluded. I'm at Kidanni Village (Animal Kingdom Lodge) and it is no smoking since there is a savannah view and there are cameras that can look onto everyones patio. It really depends where you are staying.
Sounds pretty cool, and some markup isn't too much of a surprise. I hate that gimmiky feeling you get when a cigar place is more of a tourist trap than anything though.
A good thing to note is if it isn't Sosa it is marked up CONSIDERABLY. Padron Little Hammers:$44, GoF Tubos $44, Exclusive Don Carlos (those new ones) $51, Preferidos $32.

Thanks for the input, guys. Am staying at Disney's Contemporary Resort. I'll probably check out Sosa's, maybe try some of their blends.
We were at the bar there in April and really enjoyed ourselves. They did a nice job finding a cigar for my wife to smoke while I enjoyed mine. Prices were in line with what he have to pay at B&M in Minnesota so I wasn't too sticker-shocked. The drinks are outstanding and they are not afraid to pour heavy.
As for smoking at the resorts, we were at Port Orleans and it would have been awkward sitting and smoking a full stick on the benches provided. Maybe the smoking areas at the other resorts are more conducive to cigar smoking.
On a side note, if you're in Downtown Disney, take an hour and a half and check out the Cirque du Soleil show that's permanently there. If you get your tickets a week or so ahead of time you can end up with great seats (we were in the 2nd row) and it's a great show.
If you're still there and have a car, head over to Sand Lake Boulevard, right off International Drive and hit up Corona Cigar Bar. Grab some dinner at Roy's first and head over to Corona for an after dinner smoke. Better selection, better prices. Either way, have fun!
First off I will say I am from new york so over priced cigars is not a real shock to me but another thing to add is the B&M's near me are said sorry looking places and then there are two conected to two Casino Gas stations. One has a walk in humidor that is nice but the only stuff they sell is by the Two major cigar companies. So if I want a Cohiba or Monti I'm good unless I want a Cohiba Puro my favorite since they don't sell those. When I was in Disney in 08 for my Honeymoon I thought Sosa's was great it was the nicest cigar shop I have ever been to at that time. The prices seem to have gone up alot though since then because I bought a Cetro Opus X and LA Auro Tubo for 20 a piece and didnt think it was to bad.
I am hoping to stop here and Corona Cigar when I take my family to Disney in January. Not gunna lie, I am always excited by unique shops and the like. Has anyone been to the Corona lounge in downtown Orlando? Their whisky and whiskey selection calls to me...but the website and info I can find makes it sound kinda tourist trappy compared to their main location.
