Best Resort for Couples

[alexandria674]

I've been researching for the ideal place for couples, and I have seen the French Quarter resorts and the Floridian as my fav.

I agree with several others, POFQ is my favorite resort. I just love that it's so quaint, and I really got the feeling they knew us there. The bartender knew us when we walked up to the bar and we didn't even have to ask (not sure if that means he's a great bartender that really pays good attention, or that we were there way too often LOL). But I really do love it there and have been to all the mods and it's the one I love the best. It's romantic and quaint. Well, at least take the quaint part when you're there with 4 kids lol, like I was, but I went there and thought "how quaint, maybe someday I can come back and check out the "romantic" part everyone speaks about" LOL

Have a great trip wherever you choose to stay. little over 48 hours for me!!!

The Yacht Club is where we stayed last December and it was great! We sat on a bench a few feet from our room and watched the fireworks from Epcot. We were at the waters edge and there were very few people around. I would highly recommend Yacht Club for adults!

I'll let you know about POFQ when I get back. I booked it because it looked romantic and like there were a few places where my DBF and I could just get "lost"...It just looks like a romantic atmosphere.

Dh and I love the YC and the BWI because they are so quiet! We love spending days at the quiet pool and hot tub...so relaxing

Okay so I am reading this thread and thinking what does the original poster think is romantic. . .Is it moonlit strolls next to a lazy river, is it a beach hammock with views of the water parade or the fireworks at MK, Is it a couples massage at a deluxe spa, is it a piano bar with a lot of people hanging out. There are many choices when it comes to Disney and it really depends on what you like. For me, I find POFQ and Animal Kingdom Lodge about the most romantic spots in WDW. But that is my choice on romantic. So as I said, it really depends on what the OP is looking for in romantic.

Any resort can be a good couples resort. I don't think there's a more romantic way to spend an evening than laying in a hammock with DH on the beach at the Poly, watching the sun set and waiting for the fireworks to start.

Other romantic resorts that we've enjoyed: Animal Kingdom Lodge and Wilderness Lodge. We didn't find the Contemporary all that romantic, but we did love eating at Citricos at the Grand Floridian.

Ok so you can see by my signature I havent done them all but of the ones I have done, GF seemed the most adult. We are staying at Poly in Sept and I keep thinking we maybe are making a mistake. I mean I love Poly. We always visit there eating at Ohana and just recently Kona Cafe but not sure about staying there.

For one there are no king beds unless we rented a suite, which was way out of our range. The pool always seems like a madhouse so we will be in quiet pools I think. I am happy to be staying there, but I am expecting it to be a little more hectic and less quiet than Gf.

GF just had this feeling of opulance, where we were allowed to be adults and not have to worry about the kids. We ate at the restaurants there, walked the grounds, had grown up spa treatments and my favorite was to swim in the quiet pool, at night and watch the Wishes fireworks while being in the water with my husband. It was absolutely magical.

So with that being said, we will be staying at Poly in our never ending quest to stay at all the Disney resorts, but I have a feeling as far as my favorite for just the hubby and I, it is going to be GF. (for now anyway )

Just got back from Disney with DB and we decided to spend a day exploring the other hotels (yes, we did pool hop a bit ) and we found that Poly was the best for us. We love fine dining so having GF so close was ideal, yet we loved the tropical feel of Poly. That's why we booked Club Level at the Poly for Aug. (they still had the buy 4 get 3 free going!).
Speaking of Romance...
If you have yet to experience Victoria and Alberts at GF and money is no object, GO. It was the most spectacular and romantic dinner I have ever had (DB agreed). We spent two and half hours enjoying the live harp music and amazing food. It is very much worth the $$$$$.

Enjoy your time at Poly...I can't wait to swing on a hammock, cuddle and watch Wishes....Paradise!

My Husband and I are returning to WDW in December 2009. We have booked 6 nights at the Poly, which is where we have always wanted to stay. I have read a lot of reviews that makes me feel like this resort may be more suited for families.

Is there a resort that is a good resort for couples?

One observation I've made over the years, is that the deluxe resorts may have families, but they are smaller groups... Mom/Dad & the kids. So even though there are a lot around, since they are small groups, it isn't a big deal.

The value (and sometimes the moderates) often have bigger groups (youth groups, bands, scouts) with many kids & fewer adults. Then thing seem to get louder & a bit more crazy... after all, no matter how many chaperones they send kids always find a way to get into mischief (I don't intend that in a mean way... lord knows I got into my fair share of mischief back in the day ).

Sooo... if you do want more quiet/romantic, the deluxe may be better, just simply based on the size of the groups/families staying there.

 

[D&R love Disney]

For a splurge I'd say a Garden Suite at the Boardwalk Inn. Very private and romantic. Fantastic jacuzzi tub, huge walk in shower and king size bed.

I think Kadani Villiage looks very nice....can't wait to see it in a couple months. The Animal Kingdom Lodge in general is a nice, quiet place...grab a savanah room and have breakfast on the balcony in the morning?

We're doing our FIRST adult trip, the kiddies stay here!! This is my DP's 1st time in Disney and I let her choose the resort. We're doing Wilderness Lodge Villas. It seems amazing, but I'll let you know when we return. Looking forward to ADULT time, seeing shows, drinking a few (maybe more than a few!) drinks, staying up late and eating GOOD food ( no hotdogs & fries this trip!)
