So our first trip we stayed at All Star Movies, 2nd was PORQ our 3rd is currently booked for April 2017 at POFQ but thinking I want to try another moderate. Please tell me if you have stayed at Coronado Springs and what you liked and did not like. Or another moderate in the same price range as POFQ......thanks in advance.
 
I've stayed at CSR, CBR, and POR, and liked them all.

We are returning to CSR for this trip. The nostalgia, bus service, and pool/slide were the deciding factors. I also considered POR for the food court and boat to DSp. I have fond memories of CBR with its beachy, colorful theme, but the size and seven bus stops were a con. Good luck choosing!
 
We've stayed at all the mods multiple times. POFQ is our favorite, mostly for its compact size, but we also like the theme and the DS boat. All of the other mods are huge by comparison.

We only stay at CSR if we can get Business Class. While the theming doesn't wow me, personally, the main pool is very good, and because of the convention center, the resort has more TS and bar options than the other mods.

CBR is our second favorite mod. We love the theming, and it has been recently refurbed. While it is very large, we've always requested and gotten rooms in either Jamaica or Aruba, a relatively short walk across the bridge.

POR is our least favorite mod. I'm not a fan of the theming or how far some of the buildings are from the main facilities. But many consider this their home resort. We only go here now with a preferred room.
 

Im the type of guy who sticks to a resort. I learn the lay of the land at PO-RS and WL and don't like changing.

Id suggest stick to what you know and do PO again
 
Our fav moderate is POR, Riverside. Beautiful grounds, I like the mansion section. We like POFQ too, but prefer Riverside. It's not as close together so I feel it's more relaxing. But being along the river with multiple bridges makes it easier to get around, compared to CBR or CSR where resort is around a lake with only one bridge.
I also like the good court better at Riverside. And main pool. Also like the option of having quiet pools.
 
Favorite resort is CBR...love the size, love the decor, and love the fact that you don't feel like you are walking over people. I believe that the sized is over-exaggerated by some. Have never had an issue with bus service and we like OPR and we like Shutter's as well.
 
My favorite resort on property is POR. Similar to POFQ, but different enough to make staying there worth it for you.
 
Do you have kids and what age? I ask, because I think the pools cater to different ages. I think POFQ is the best for smaller kids. POR is good for young kids. DS10 really liked CBR, but it also has a really cool looking little kids area. We have not stayed at CSR yet. If you are adults, I would stay at POFQ or POR. They boat access to Disney Springs is really convenient. I feel POFQ is more intimate and adult. The quiet pools were nice for adults at POR. The size of your family is a factor too, because I don't think all of the mods can accommodate families of 5. I think only POR and CBR, and possibly POFQ, can.
 
thanks for the feedback. I think I am sticking with POFQ with a trip over to POR to check out he pools and food options...
