However, not all rides are available during those events.
That is correct. However, they give you the opportunity to ride some very popular rides during the tour (or event) so you can save your day's FP+ for something else. If you did AK DAH, for example, you could use your FP+ during the day for rides in other parks, then hop to AK and ride the DAH attractions without using FP+ - it just might offer you a cheaper way to ride some of the bigger rides without having to rely on the CL FP+. If you do a VIP tour, you can ride anything (except, currently ROTR) and also have access to premier viewing areas for shows and fireworks.
Would you say overall that those resorts are quieter?
IMHO, the EP resorts are far quieter than the monorail resorts and WL, but, you do have to keep room category in mind. IMHO, the villas are far quieter than the standard rooms.
