Deluxe: Animal Kingdom Lodge (loved the pool, animal-watching, lobby)

Moderate: Port Orleans French Quarter (small size of resort, sea serpent water slide)

Value: All-Star Sports (great price, convenience of rooms in the Touchdown! area, have had great experiences with the bus system here)

D: Poly - I find it beyond relaxing, beautiful and it has great restaurants
M: FW Cabins - the opposite of the hectic parks, I always see deer on my morning runs
V: AoA - if you can book it. The food court is my favorite and the themeing is fabulous

D Bay Lake. - the proximity to the parks (walking distance) - monorail - the view
M Swan Dolphin - best for the price at Epcot - love the boats
v Aoa - love the atmosphere and the pools. Very much a Disney feel

Deluxe - BC/YC - I lump them as one resort since they really are basically but if it's available and less I prefer YC just because it seems a little less busy. I like the proximity to Epcot and HS, which are my favorite parks. Any of the Epcot resorts are fine for me. MK resorts I like GF just because I love the lobby. Since DS is an adult we tend to not spend much time at MK so the monorail resorts just don't appeal to us any more, we have stayed at all three. If I weren't planning on spending much time in the parks I'd go AKL, loved the lobby and everything there is to see and do there, we enjoyed it when we stayed there for two nights.

Mod - I've only stayed at POR so far but did walk over to POFQ but liked POR better. It's peaceful and great to walk around. I plan on hopping to CBR and Cor this trip to check them out.

Value - I've only stayed at Pop and hated it, did walk over to AoA and it looked cute but frankly it costs as much as a moderate so I would just as soon stay at one of them and get the bigger rooms and better amenities. I will be staying one night at ASSp 9/28 so we'll see how I feel about it after.

Deluxe: WL- Love the theme, size, location and the cost as a deluxe.
Moderate: CSR- I have never stayed at a moderate or value but I love the look of this resort the times I have visited and walked it.
Value: AoA- I don't like values and their over the top in your face theming and colors; but this one I can handle if I needed.

 

[IceSkatingPrincess]

Value: Pop Century (great buses, great preferred room location, good price)
Mod: POFQ (love the boat to DTD and small size)
Deluxe: AKL (Animals from my balcony, the mara, and a great pool)
Deluxe CL: Contemporary Tower Club (oversize balcony with view of wishes, yes please)

 

[2kidsForMe]

Deluxe-Polynesian for theming, location, rooms, dining , pool and staff

Moderate-POFQ for size, beauty, food court and atmosphere

Value-ASMovies for theming, price, size and food court.

 

[SouthFayetteFan]

Deluxe - Contemporary (never stayed deluxe and probably never will but we always spend time at this resort each trip due to my obsession!)

Moderate - Port Orleans Riverside (it was gorgeous, enjoyable, peaceful, wonderful! We will definitely go back to this resort)

Value - Pop Century (It's slightly better than the all stars to us and there's no way we're putting up more money to stay at AOA when inside the room it's basically the same thing)
