Are you a Monoga-Mouse? i.e. The Sociology of your Relationships with Resorts

[Bstanley]

Specifically whether you are monoga-Mouse with respect to your choice of resort.

Personally although the Polynesian was my first Disney Resort, still really enjoy it and have stayed there more often than any other resort I do NOT have a monoga-Mouse relationship with it...

I have stayed at several other resorts and also REALLY enjoyed them and will stay at them again as time permits. In addition there are a number of other resorts that I haven't stayed at yet that I really want to try.

So, how many of us are Resort monoga-Mouse and how many aren't?

 

[eeyore0062]

Nope, no Monaga-Mouse relationship with any of the resorts, either. We enjoy staying at a different one each time. Too afraid we would be missing something better! Once we have experience most, if not all of them, then we may rethink our strategy, though!

We aren't even Monaga-Mouse in a single trip. The last time we were Monaga-Mouse (for a trip that is), was in 1995, when we spent a quick weekend at Fort Wilderness. We enjoy the variety too much.

We have always been very monaga-mouse to Fort Wilderness! We've stayed there every year for the last 15 or so years. But, last year we had an affair with the Dolphin, and have been staying there ever since!

When we do our 2-week long vacations, we still stay at FW, but for the smaller (long weekend) trips, we LOVE the Dolphin!

 

[MinnieGi]

We like to flirt with new resorts each time!

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

I guess I'm a big slut because I won't be satisfied until I've stayed at every resort at least once!!!

 

[eeyore0062]

LOL, TigrLvsPooh!!!!

 

[addicted_to_WDW]

TigrLvsPooh -

I'm the same way. I'd like to try each resort eventually.

At this point we are totally monoga-mouse with the Polynesian. We know that there are lots of other terrific resorts and that we are probably missing out on fun at other resorts, but we are operating under the "if-it-ain't-broke-don't-fix-it" philosophy at the moment.

Perhaps one day we will decide to spice things up a bit and examine our commitment to the Polynesian. Who knows, someday I may have a mid-life crisis and decide that the way to go is a Menage-mouse-a-trois - start at the Poly, move to Yacht, and finish out at AKL.

Be still my heart - could I possibly stand such excitement?

 

[grumpyandbashful]

We are sort of serial monaga - Mouses .
We started with the Poly a few times when the kids were little, then moved on to the Beach Club, then when we outgrew one room we started staying at 2 rooms at CSR. In between we have flirted with other resorts while on solo trips or there with just part of the family.
Then again, you never forget your first WDW resort, which was Ft. Wilderness cabins for us (first trip only!).

We are very monago-mouse to the Polynesian. I am tempted by other resorts, especially the Grand Floridan and Wilderness Lodge, but guess I'm just too darn loyal!

I'm not very monoga-mouse. I have tried many of the resorts. My favorite thing to do is split my stay between somewhere I have stayed and somewhere I haven't so I get the best of both worlds. I have stayed at ASMu once, GF once, BWI once, WL once, AKL once, and Poly once. I plan on returning to the AKL on my next trip, returning to the AKL and trying the BC on the one after that, and then staying at the GF, AKL, and BWI on the next trip.

 

[LadyTrampScamp&Angel]

Absolutely not, as much as I've loved some resorts (AKL comes to mind) my goal is to try almost all of them. I'm repeating a couple this trip because my 5 yr old DS has not stayed at ASMo before (although I have) and is crazy about Toy Story and staying at CBR 'cause it fit our budget and I've heard so many good things about it lately (It's also been 10 yrs since last I stayed there).

Goin' to Disney in 2 days! Woo Hoo!

 

[Disney Doll]

I like to try as many as possible. I do have my favorites in each category, but I wouldn't forego a chance to stay at one vs. the other.

 

[Tina26]

LOL Tigrlvspooh!! You are too funny!!

 

[mom5417]

We won't have an affair again. It's one resort same room for the whole trip. No moves ever again. Not while traveling with 3 females says dh. TOO MUCH WORK packing up all those curling irons and shoes and make up etc. We were all allowed one bag this trip but had separate bags for hair stuff, shoes etc. All dh had was one shave kit and a med size bag Oh well, you gotta look pretty for the mouse right???

 

[2boys'mom]

We are staying again at the Wilderness Lodge this year. I would love to save money, but hesitate with small kids to stay too far away from the MK. I would love to do a quick getaway with my hubby and try the Beach Club or Boardwalk or do a short stay at AKL with my kids. Maybe later when I'm more OK with flying. I cannot even visualize moving to another resort with all the kidstuff we tote around. I have thought about doing the Poly. I think we are too casual for the Grand Floridian. The contemporary is fun and I'd stay there but the other pools are better themed. We loved the outdoor theme of the WL and the kids loved the birds and the boats. I could see staying at Fort Wilderness with more people.

 

[fortwilderness]

I have been loyal to Fort Wilderness for the past 7 trips but I am cheating on it this June. Shh.. please don't tell my favorite cabin I am going to stay at the Yacht Club and the Polynesian but I am sure I will return back to my old faithful friend Fort Wilderness the next trip

 

[Janet2k]

With WDW, I am a promiscu-mouse woman. I enjoy all resorts and thus love to sleep around (hee hee). So far I haven’t met a resort that I didn’t like.
