Help finding a resort overview video

[disney144]

We are planning our first trip to WDW, planning to stay onsite. I've been before, but have never done the planning. I was hoping to find a video overview of all the resorts for us to help choose. It will be just me and my husband, but we're looking to expand our research. Any recommendations?

I don't know about 1 video overviewing them all but here is a good place to start:

WDW Resorts

I haven't come across one video showing them all. What you might find helpful are the many resort tour videos on YouTube. My favorites are by BookishPrincess and the Neverland Family, but there are a lot of others available.

All together, there are 30 Disney-owned resorts onsite at WDW, so you're unlikely to find one video that covers them all. You'll find videos and info for each resort at the link in Kirk's post, and Disneyworld.com is also a great resource for photos, dining options, and amenities for each resort.

It can be quite overwhelming at first. Best bet is to rank what qualities are most important to you, is it price, room size, pool, theming, restaurants, location, etc. Then use the most important qualities to start paring it down.

For Example, if you must be near a theme park that narrows it down to the resorts on the monorail, the epcot resorts and wilderness lodge.

iThemePark on YouTube is great. They don't talk at all so it gives you a feel of what it would actually be at the resort.

The quick videos from Disney Parks are nice too. I don't think they cover all resorts though.
Here is a link to their playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLflf8xbnbx65Jh4E54WEld4ZYF6ByGMLA

Great Hotels with Samantha Brown did visits to a few of the WDW hotels. If you can find those on YouTube they were a great tour with ideas of what was special about each. I know there is Yacht/Beach Club, Wilderness Lodge and Grand Floridian. Some things have changed since then - there were done a long time ago but my kids loved them to get ideas of what places were like.
