Anyone have a bucket list of staying at all the Disney World resorts during their lifetime?

I think it would be cool to have a bucket list of staying at all the Disney resorts at Disney World or maybe both Disney World and Disneyland. Sort of like a bucket list where a person wants to go to every baseball stadium for MLB games or every arena for NFL games. What's your Disney bucket list or something you like to collect when you visit? Maybe it's all the pressed pennies, pins, or mugs, etc.
 
I do!, But when those Florida resident rates or pass holder discounts come out I will repeat cause its hard to pass up on a good rate.
 
All deluxes and moderates, sure, but in all honesty I’d rather stay offsite in luxury than stay at a value.

Staying at the Grand Floridian, the Contemporary and the Swan would complete my WDW deluxe list.
 

I do... But I can’t get my husband away from AKL! :rotfl:

HA HA that's my husband - only with the Boardwalk Resort!
We actually just fulfilled a long time bucket list stay at a Bay Lake Tower Theme park view room.
We have Saratoga, Old Key West, Wilderness Lodge, Boardwalk, Animal Kingdom and under our
belt so far in terms of "bucket list" places to stay. We plan on trying out Poly & Grand Floridian to round out the list in the next few years!

We dithered back & forth for years on spending the $$ for the Bay Lake Tower room. In the end we splurged and are so glad we did. It was worth it-
 
I'd like to say that I've stayed at all the WDW deluxes. I still need to book BWI to accomplish that.
 
We're working on it! So far we've stayed at Pop, AKL Jambo House, AKL Kidani, Yacht Club, Boardwalk Villas, Saratoga Springs and OKW. This year we can tick off Grand Floridian and if our waitlist comes through Beach Club Villas. I would stay at any of the resorts - value, moderate and deluxe - they all have something I would like to experience.

Already done it :). Except the all stars. No desire to stay there at all
 
I do but I doubt it'll happen. There are some places that I just have no desire to stay in for aesthetic reasons (looking at you clown pool)

I did initially, but for some reason Old Key West and Saratoga Springs have no appeal to me at all. And now that I've stayed in all the resorts except those two I'd rather go back to my favorites--Wilderness Lodge and Boardwalk!

Oh, I also haven't stayed at the campground. I don't camp, but I wouldn't mind staying in one of the cabins sometime.
 
Only been to WDW once, 2 years ago, stayed at the Grand Floridian. Really have no desire to go back to WDW, just wasn't our cup of tea, so no, no desired to stay at other hotels there.
Now we have stayed at all three hotels at DL, and my wife insists on the Grand Californian now. As a kid and young adult I stayed at everything from the Best Western, to the KOA (used to be where the parking structure is now).....to the Hilton. Really can't beat the Grand Californian.
 
We’re East coasters so when we go to Disneyland we stay a minimum of 8 nights, so we usually do a split stay at the Grand Californian and the Disneyland Hotel. We love the GC location but it has that Wilderness Lodge feel to us so the Disneyland Hotel feels more unique and special, but we adore both. We’ve never stayed at Paradise Pier but we’ve toured the hotel and grounds and have eaten at Yamabuki which has since been reimagined.

My Disney bucket list is:
1) to stay in the Cinderella suite at WDW. I know I know it's elite and invitation only such and such. But hey a girl can dream.
2) see the captains quarters on the Mark Twain Boat ( already did tbis one recently :D ) .
3) and to sit on the bench that is in Great Moments With Mr.Lincoln. the same bench Walt was sitting on when he had the idea for Disneyland. I know you can't sit on it but I hope to one day if they let me lol . That way I can say , "my butt is in the shadow of the butt of Walt Disney ". 😂 I really hope someone got that reference.
 
We have stayed at most WDW resorts. I'm not sure if we'll get to all of them since we bought DVC. Plus I'm not really a big fan of the Values. I am adding a night at CBR to our next DVC vacation. It's the only moderate where we haven't stayed.
 
No, I'm OK if I don't stay at all the values. :D

DW and I would love to stay at the Poly just once because of the nostalgia, but I can't say I have it on the bucket list.
