best resort for 14yr dd?

[arrdee11462]

We have been traveling most years and have stayed at many resorts but I'd like to find one where the teens like it best.

We are looking at Pop, CS, maybe Swan/Dolphin?

We are open to anyplace, one that your teens have enjoyed most?

I don't have teens, but have stayed at Pop and CSR. We have been researching Swan/Dolphin and I would pick that for older kids. The easy access to all of the Boardwalk activities, more amenities on site (tennis, volleyball, paddle boats, etc., walk/boat ride from Epcot and DHS and Fantasia Gardens (mini golf), more food options (including Picabu which is open 24 hours).... Makes Swan/Dolphin the winner in my book.

Also, don't forget that if you are a teacher or nurse, you qualify for an extra discount (if available for the dates of stay) at Swan/Dolphin, but you have to call the hotel directly to get the rate (you can't see it online)

I suggest the BWI. Great stuff going on, and the teens hang around on the boardwalk and pool.

We loved the location of the Dolphin. In fact, if Free Dining doesn't come out in the fall, we will probably cancel our POFQ and switch over.
It is in an awesome location, costs less than any of the resorts around it (esp if you have a teacher, nurse, or military in your party) and still allows EMH.
There are some downsides - cannot charge to room inside Disney, no dining plan add on, no Magical Express.
However the positives for us were: So easy to get to Epcot and HS, super comfortable beds, views of the Epcot Illuminations from our window, boats and buses, wonderful pool.

CSR is a great resort for teens. Great main pool, large hot tub, sand volleyball court, fitness center, queen beds, sliding door to separate bathroom from bedroom.
