Disney Resorts Only...

[skeeter]

Is there anyone here who has stayed at EVERY Disney Resort? Not those at downtown Disney, just those specifically in value, moderate, deluxe, and home away from home. If so, your opinions should matter most when asked which resort is best and why. Just curious...

Well I have not stayed at them all, but I have stayed at:

All-Star Sports
All-Star Music
All-Star Movies
Pop Century *
Port Orleans - Riverside *
Port Orleans - French Quarter
Coronado Springs
Caribbean Beach
Wilderness Lodge
Animal Kingdom Lodge *
Polynesian
Contemporary
Boardwalk
and the old Disney Institute.

The stars represent my favorite in each price bracket.

oh, and my favorite is by far Animal Kingdom Lodge.

I have not stayed at all of them, but I have been to about 90% of them.

I must say that Animal Kingdom Lodge and Wilderness Lodge are my fav's.

I've not stayed at them all either, but I have stayed at many of them:

Grand Floridian
Polynesian
Contemporary
Wilderness Lodge
Animal Kingdom Lodge
All Star Sports
All Star Music
All Star Movies
Coronado Springs
Port Orleans Riverside
Caribbean Beach
and the old Fairway Villas

They're all great resorts, but I'd say my favorites have been Caribbean Beach, Contemporary, and Animal Kingdom Lodge

My goal is to stay at all of them! so far I've done
Polynesian
Contemporary
Disney Inn (now Shades of Green)
Swan
Wilderness Lodge
Caribbean Beach
Disney Institute (bungalow)
Dixie Landings
Pop Century (this February)

 

[Nicole]

My goal too is to stay at all of them and I'm working on it!

Shades of Green (pre-rehab)
Contemporary
Pop Century
AS Music
Carribbean Beach
Dolphin

I'd gladly stay at any of them again with the exception of the Dolphin. CBR is my favorite so far mostly due to the convenience of the parking and the village theme. The Contemporary is best if you want to spend most of your time at MK.

I haven't, but I am proud of the ones I have stayed at!

First WDW resort was ASMusic... we stayed there twice.

We then stayed at ASMovies three times.

Then we stayed at AKL twice.

Now we have reservations for ASMusic again (only because Pop and ASMovies were booked, and AKL is too expensive right now).

 

[Disneydreaming]

I've stayed at all except the Animal Kingdom Lodge and Pop Century. I'm hoping to try both in the new year since I just bought annual passes .

I haven't stayed at them all. Not sure if I ever will now that we are DVC.

I have stayed at every moderate resort, and half the deluxes (I never thought I would have before DVC.)

I have never stayed at a value yet. I was scared it would be full of young kids, but not that is who I travel with me might try ASMovies if we can get in May for the weekend when we go to Vero Beach for the rest of the week.

(in order I like them)

MOD
Dixie Landing,
Corondo Springs,
Port Orleans,
Caribien Beach


Beach Club (BCV and YC)
Poly
AKL
Wilderness Lodge (Villas)

Can't wait to go back to BVC in a few months!

Eventually we will get to all of them. So far we have stayed at:

All Star Sports
All Star Movies
All Star Music
Pop Century
Coronado Springs
Caribbean Beach Resort
Riverside (Dixie Landings at the time)
French Quarter
Fort Wilderness Cabins
Fort Wilderness Campground
Wilderness Lodge
Contemporary

Our favorite overall to date in terms of hotel is the Wilderness Lodge, although we have favorites in each category. I absolutely love Fort Wilderness, but more for the recreation and things to do than as a "hotel." My favorite moderate (which I think we have stayed at all of them) is Coronado Springs. I find all the value resorts pretty much the same, but if I had to pick one, I would go for PC just for location.

Our next stop is a Savannah view room at AKL, can't wait for that one.

 

[TTATraveler]

I have stayed at:

All Star Sports
All Star Music
All Star Movies
Caribbean Beach
Port Orleans Riverside (Then Dixie Landings)
The Polynesian
The Beach Club
The Disney Inn (Now Shades of Green)

I would like to stay at the Wilderness Lodge, AK Lodge, Pop Century, and Contemporary in the future. Of the hotels I have stayed at I like Caribbean Beach best of the moderates, Polynesian best of the deluxes, and I guess All Star Music of the values. Of all these hotels, Poly has the best theming and grounds, followed by CBR and POR.
