Own at BLT - how about the smell? Hard to describe, but it instantly lets me know I am "home".

RIV same

(Own BWV and AKV)

BWV: Best view at WDW from boardwalk view rooms, ideal location for a DVC Resort
AKV: Sense of being far away from everything on an African savanna
BCV: Another ideally locacted resort with acces to best themed pool/slide, Stormalong Bay
BLT: Tallest DVC resort at WDW with rooftop to view fireworks, and walk to MK
OKW: Large rooms with lowest point cost
SSR: Very nice and fairly low point cost resort condemned by too many
CCV (have not stayed at BRV): Lobby is huge and very impressive particularly during Christmas season
VGF, Poly, and Riviera: have not stayed at those because as a BWV owner consider them way too point costly
Aulani: also way too costly but it is the best DVC Resort as a resort/amenities with best location and weather.

 

[Moonspinner]

VDH - Walt Disney
VGC - impossible
BCV - crowded/bad quick serve
OKW - people sleeping in lobby
POLY - pool cheaters
RIV - relaxing
VGF - killer alligator/too crowded
CFW - dogs and no laundry and wet towels
SSR - great parking and vibe
BWV - ceramics/miss the clown pool
CCV - authentic and comforting
BRV - Walt Disney
BLT - the monorail song
VB - childhood/needs new management
HHI - biking/reno destroyed theme
AUL - really long plane ride
AKV - extra bathroom

Owner here (VGF, BRV, BWV, HH). Buckle up. This is all said with love and an over-caffeinated refillable mug:

• BLT – “I could be in Fantasyland before this elevator finishes closing.”
• VGF – Lobby smells like money and old jazz records, plus the quiet pressure to whisper indoors
• Poly – Dole Whip as a lifestyle.
• Copper Creek – Luxe log cabin fantasy. Silently judging Boulder Ridge.
• Boulder Ridge – Copper Creek’s cooler older sibling who reads by the fireplace and doesn’t care.
• BoardWalk – “We’ll just walk to Epcot” turns into “Why are we still walking to Epcot?”
• Beach Club – EPCOT in 5 minutes, France in 7, bad decisions by 9.
• Riviera – Skyliner evangelists who whisper “Europe” a lot.
• OKW – Gigantic rooms, strong “retired early and won” energy.
• Saratoga Springs – You booked last minute and still somehow got in.
• AKL – “Yes, it’s far… but there are giraffes.” (This ends all arguments.)
• Aulani – Yes, it’s Disney. No, I’m never leaving the resort.
• Vero Beach – “This is Disney?” (said positively and negatively).
• Hilton Head – The DVC resort you defend passionately to people who have never been and never will.
• CFW – The only place where Disney says, “Here’s a golf cart. Godspeed.”

All meant with love. Mostly.

[muppets3d]

I will only discuss the resorts I own at.
Riviera is understated elegance
VGF is kind of stuffy but it is growing on me (I bought the fire sale deal otherwise I wouldn't own points here)
AKV is just magical in every sense of the word and in every square foot of the resort
HHI is a true vacation
