Hello fellow DISers!
From the following choices, which resort would you choose to stay at during the Christmas season? I am fully aware that it will be absolutely packed, but we are DVC members and planning on merely relaxing at our resort and not even hitting the parks (except for Epcot). Therefore, hotel ambience, location to restaurants, and of course Disney Christmas spirit is incredibly important.
I forgot to mention that "we" includes my parents and me- an eighteen year old.
We have stayed at the Dolphin twice during the Christmas season when I was younger and most recently SSR in 2005 the week before Christmas. Thus, we are not afraid of the crowd level or slightly colder temps.
We are from NH and used to the woodlands theme, therefore Wilderness Lodge is out. Our favorite park is Epcot and most likely we will spend one day there for dinner and to see Illuminations.
Our choices:
Beach Club Villas one bedroom: We actually just got back from an AMAZING stay on Monday in a two bedroom here at the BCV. We are actually debating about going back, which is why this is one of our choices.
Contemporary Resort Atrium Club: We love the idea of concierge and enjoyed it while at AKL in August of 2006. How are the views from these rooms, not to mention the room ambience/decor?
Grand Floridian Royal Palm Club: Not Sugarloaf.
Yacht Club Regatta Club: Have heard barely anything about their concierge level.
Polynesian Resort King Kamehameha Club
We would love to hear your feedback. Thanks!!!!

On Xmas Eve a beautiful platter of Xmas cookies and treats were delivered to our door. We ordered a gingerbread house and tree that were in our room when we checked in. Even with the resort being booked full, the lounge never seemed overly crowded & they didn't run out of food like other concierge lounges do. We are crazy about the Grand & we just LOVE that RPC.
