Just wondering what your favorite Disney Resorts have been... and why?
DH & I are going in 2 weeks for a budget trip, so we will be at the All Star Movies. But in the future, we'd like to try a different resort. I thought this would be a good place to get some info, and we may be able to check other resorts out while there.

Thanks!

POFQ when it is open(right now the resort is closed for refurbishing). We like this resort because it is small and charming. Also when staying there the buses stop there first, then make their way over to POR. When POFQ is closed then we stay at its sister resort POR, it is a little larger but just as charming. Also when staying at either of the two, you can pool hop between the two resorts and that gives you seven pools to choose from. :)

We love the Beach Club Villas-try renting someones points one year to stay there.
We also like the All-Stars-more kid friendly than any of the other resorts.
Port Orleans is also nice, reminds me of home when we stay there.
And I like the Contemporary.
Try 'em all, it will make Mickey very happy:teeth:
 
I love the Beach Club Villas. The rooms are big and the location is great. I loved being able to easily walk to Epcot and MGM (it was quicker to walk than to take the boat!) I also loved the eligance of the Beach Club but at the same time it was so casual. The villas are great as they are larger and the quiet pool there is lovely, although so is Stormalong Bay. I looked around a few other resorts whilst I was in WDW but wouldn't stay anywhere other that the BCV's.
 

We also love POFQ! The size is wonderful when traveling with children- rooms are all very close to bus stop and main buidling. Also, very pretty resort. We stayed at PO last time as POFQ was closed. We liked it- but much larger than POFQ. This year we got an upgrade to AKL due to the closing of POFQ- we'll let you know on this one. We are very excited- never stayed in a deluxe before!
 
Sounds like the crowds in agreement. Thanks for the info. Maybe we'll get to check out PO & the Beach Club Villas. We stopped by AKL last time we were there. (We were trying to get from AK to Downtown Disney, but there was no direct bus. We took the AKL bus to the hotel since it was so close, and then waited for the next bus to Downtown Disney from there.) I was very impressed with the setup, and we didn't stay long... so I'm sure it's a lot better than what I saw! Mostly we stay at the All Stars, which are nice, but not very exciting. It'll be nice to plan on something a little nicer next time!
