From what I've researched, Animal Kingdom Lodge is the deluxe resort with the cheapest price, but it also depends on what you are looking for in a resort and what best value means to you. We stayed at Wilderness Lodge a couple of years ago and it was beautiful and great for us...our friends didn't like it...they want more of a tropical/Caribbean feel. We are planning on AKL for our Dec. trip...because we love the AK, the atmosphere of the resort appeals to us( it is designed by the smae people that did WL), and because it is the cheapest priced deluxe. You won't be dissappointed in any of them...even the moderates and values are wonderful.
