Favorite Resort to stay at during Xmas

[KingKobra]

Whats your favorite resort to stay at during xmas? I want to go to wdw during this time because i heard it is totally different but im going to have to convince the parents on a resort to stay at.....

I would think that the wilderness lodge would be the most decorated since they have all the pine trees...So whats everyone's favorite?

Christmas is our very favorite time of year to visit. You get all of the usual attractions that the parks have to offer, plus the added benifit of seeing everything decked out for the holidays.
I think it really depends on your family's taste.
We like the Wilderness Lodge for a cozy,warm type Christmas feeling.(think wrapped up in a fuzzy blanket, with a cup of hot chocolate, sitting in front of the fire)
We also like the Grand Floridian for a Christmas feeling that is more fancy and frilly. To me it feels very victorian and elegant.
It always makes me think of Dickens Carolers,plum pudding and gingerbread, a horse with jingle bells around it's neck pulling a sleigh through the falling snow.... O.K., so I'm getting a little carried away here
I'm sure you won't be disappointed with any of the resorts.They all have their own charm,and they are all dressed to the 9's.

WL is definitely my favorite. So, it depends on what type Christmas decorations you like. If you like mauve, lt. blue, and lacy GF should be your choice. If you like woodsy and earthy, WL should be your choice. Both are beautifully decorated. All resorts are decorated for Christmas, but these 2 seem to stand out above the rest.

All of 'em! During this past Christmas, I stayed at the CBR, CR, OKW, AKL, and BWV. I visited FW, GF, YC, BC, Swan, Dolphin, and Poly. They each had something unique to offer. You really can't go wrong, as WDW is lovely during the holidays. By the way, I think my favorite holiday "pool" music was found at the CR (Chipmunk Christmas, Beach Boys Christmas, etc.).

Hi,

We are going to WDW at Xmas and are staying at The Wilderness Lodge. I started a thread similair to yours about 3 months ago and done a poll, most people voted for Wilderness Lodge and said it was really beautiful at Christmas.

Last time we went to WDW near Xmas time we stayed at the GF. It was beauitfully decorated and had some extraordinary 'xmas extras'. This time though we wanted a change, so chose WL.

Have fun deciding!!

My favorite .. Christmastime or any other time is still the Grand. Though I must say, one of these years, I DO want to try the WL.

If the pocketbook were willing, it would definitely, without a doubt be the Grand Floridian. It is absolutely beautiful at Christmas and any other time, for that matter.

However, if you are more into down home rustic Christmas atmosphere, you can't beat the Wilderness Lodge!

Good Luck on your decision!

All are beautifully decorated. But my favs for Christmas decorations are WL and GF.

We are staying at the BWI for convenience to Epcot and MGM where we spend most of our time during the Holiday. I think that WL and the GF have the absolute best decorations!

Definately the Wilderness Lodge. The decorations are amazing - even better than the Grand Floridain, in our opinion. And the whole theme just lends itself so well to Christmas time - the giant fireplace, the cozy nooks, etc. We love it!

Ok...now I am so excited...we are spending xmas at WL....this will be our first xmas at WDW
I can't wait to see the WL after all I have read here.

Do all the hotels decorate for the Holidays? And is there a site somewhere where I can see pictures?

We've stayed at WL twice during the Christmas season and it is just beautiful.

Last year we stayed at YC and loved it as well. The location just can't be beat.
