Never been at Christmas, but planning a 12/18 - 12/23 trip. Which resort has the best Christmas decorations and Christmas feel? Other advantages of a certain resort related to Christmas? GF is quite frankly out of my price range, so I'm looking for some other thoughts. Thanks in advance.
 
:cool1:

The WL is great at Christmas. Check your PM's, I just sent one to you.
 
I agree with the WL recommendation! It just has a great Christmasy feel to it. Beautiful tree in the loby and the whole theme just makes it feel more Christmasy. The Grand Floridian also has really great decorations.
 
Got to say stoped in the Yatch Club last Christmas. Superb. Lovely tree, characters strolling in and out, carol singers, small quintets, story telling etc around 5pm. Kids loved it.
 

I haven't stayed at christams, but I stayed at the WL over Thanksgiving and it was wonderful. The tree and decrations were up, music everywhere (even out by the pool)-VERY Christmasy
 
All of the resorts that we have stayed at or seen during Christmas have had their own unique decorations and beauty. (POLY, AKL, YC, BC, GF, WL, BWI, CR, POR, POFQ)

With that being said, the GF and WL are the best...IMO.
 
I haven't been, but a friend went to the BWI at Christmas time and she said it was gorgeous! :flower:
 
I agree with the Boardwalk area resorts, either Y&B or Boardwalk. Not only are they beautiful, but much of the Christmas stuff in the parks seems to be happening at Epcot, which is just a short walk away-the CP, the holiday storytellers, tree-lighting ceremony, holiday Illuminations show. Also, you can walk or take a short boat ride to MGM to see Osborne lights. To me, there's nothing more Christmassy than walking along the Boardwalk early in the morning, listening to the (Manheim Steamroller?) Christmas music with all the light poles trimmed in garland.
