What is everyone's favorite property either in or around Disney?

While it is not an official Disney resort, I love the Swan and Dolfin. You can't beat the location (walk to both Epcot and Studios), food (Shulas, bluezoo, etc.) and they have a great pool area.

With that being said, probably going to venture out to another resort. In the past, I've stayed at Coronado, Port Orleans, Pop, All-Star, Carribean Beach.

@belledream - The boardwalk area is just amazing. I love walking along the boardwalk at night with the movies on the lawn, performers and all the activity from the restaurants, games, etc.. With the four hotels essentially connected, you really have everything you could want. I think last time we counted and there is something like 12+ restaurants, several bars, the dance hall, games....and the views of the Epcot and the fireworks cant be beat!

Exactly! There's so much to see and do, yet it can also be the peace and quiet you just need. And also...it's been on my bucketlist for a while...but I WILL ride surrey bikes around the loop one day!

Magic Kingdom is a classic that will always be near and dear. There is something about the culture and authenticity of Epcot that I just love. I'm one of the few that don't mind introducing characters either.

I love multiple ones for different reasons.(this is if we are talking hotels).
GF-The grandeur and the feeling of that laid back Victorian era, plus the restaurants are fab.
Poly-Like being in the South Seas without really being there. I have always been affectionate for the Poly since childhood when I dreamed of staying there someday.
Wilderness Lodge- That Lobby
Beach/Yacht Club-I just love the vibe
and last but not least my absolute fave: AKL-The lobbies of both Jambo and Kidani are gorgeous, the smells are wonderful and the animals amazing. I love the feeling of being in Africa and meeting all of the nice CM's who are at the lodge from various places on that continent. I studied African History/Culture/Archaeology extensively in a "past life" lol and love love love staying there. There is just something about it that is indescribable but wonderful.

Favorite Resort : Poly... or Wilderness Lodge... grrrr - can't decide!

Fav Park : Animal Kingdom. There's a lot more to see if you just slow your roll...and the details are amazing

Fav Restaurant : Jiko or Homecoming in Disney Springs

New Fav Spot : Nomad Lounge at Tiffins in AK...I'm sure it will change once Pandora opens but right now it's like an undiscovered oasis!

Fav Snack: Sneaking a cream cheese pretzel onto the Peoplemover (don't tell) it's a family tradition...or a dole whip...or grapefruit beer in Germany

If I can find a great deal, BWV is a perfect location and great resort. I simply will not spend the price for the monorail resorts. We stay offsite more often because we can get 3-4x the space for the price of 1 night in an equivalent Disney room.

If you haven't stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge you must. You don't necessarily have to stay in a savanna view room. Standard view rooms are about $100 less a night and sometimes they have views of the savanna. It's truly a unique hotel experience.

Taking the convenience of resort launches and monorails into account, the Grand Floridian is our go-to resort for Disney vacations. The Polynesian used to hold that spot (especially due to the King Kamehameha Club), but after the renovation, the Polynesian lost a lot of its charm for us. It's not just the new lobby, or the pool, or the bungalows (which I actually like). I can't quite place it, but it just doesn't feel the same.

If it had monorail access, the Four Seasons would be my favorite resort by far. It's one of my favorite resorts anywhere.

The whole Epcot resort area is my absolute favorite! We stay at Beach Club, and there is really nothing like it. The 5 minute walk to Epcot, Boardwalk and we love taking the boat to DHS. The pool at YC/BC is amazing. We enjoy walking around Crescent Lake. There is nothing like waking up to that view every morning of the trip. It is breathtaking. :D
