If you could stay at any resort, assuming money wasn't an issue, where would you stay? And why?
 
It's always been my dream to stay at the Polynesian because of the ideal location and the theming. After countless trips to 'Ohana for a meal and getting to see the gorgeous grounds and lobby area, I wanted to stay there even more. The rooms look awesome too. I'm finally getting to stay there in 2 weeks. I am so excited! It was definitely my Disney "dream" hotel.
 
i have wanted to stay at the grand floridian since i saw it on our trip in '88

i think it's beautiful and elegant and gorgeous

i do like the others, as well, but that one has stuck with me for a long time
 

I have stayed everywhere in WDW that I want, except the Contemporary. I want to stay on the CR 12th floor with a MK view. My 20th wedding anniversary is in 2011, and I'm shooting for then. I will most certainly deserve it! ;)
 
We've stayed at all the deluxe resorts except Yacht/Beach Club. Those are next on the list. :earsboy:
 
It doesn't have to be one that you've never been to, it can be one that you have been to a million times. Someone's favorite that they have ever been to may very well be POP while someone else GF. Just depends on the person. My husband and I will be celebrating our 1 year anniversary. And originally my parents were going to be tagging along with us (in a different room of course) but now they have decided on a cruise for themselves instead. So now we are free to truly pick which resort we want to stay in since its just us deciding on the resort. (of course money does play a factor at some level).

So pretty much I'm just curious which one is everyone's favorite/would stay in if they could every time.
 
Beach Club, without a shadow of a doubt. Why? 2 reasons:

(1) Art, the Greeter... he's one of the nicest guys I've EVER met, and when I once heard of someone referring to the Beach Club as "Art's House", what can I say, it REALLY fit!

(2) 12 years ago when my dad was recovering from colon cancer, we went on a trip down to the Beach Club. While there, he became ill from the chemotherapy he was on & general anemia (low blood count), so much so that at 2AM, we took him to the hospital (he's a doctor, I'm a paramedic, neither one of us believe in going to the hospital except when it's MOST critical!). I called down to the front desk to ask them to PLEASE have someone bring the car around (we'd used valet parking). Not only did they send someone to RUN to get the car (& write out directions for us to get to the hospital), but the only other person on duty (the front desk person herself) grabbed a wheelchair & RUSHED it up to the room (we hadn't even asked for it!) to assist us in bringing him down. He turned out ok & we went back to the hotel around 6AM (we were staying for several more days). EVERY SINGLE DAY the TERRIFIC MouseKeeping staff sent up chicken soup from Beaches & Cream to help him get better. After all the terrific things they did for him, how could I NOT love that hotel???

Enjoy the Magic!
 
The Poly it has the perfect location, great dining options and close to other which gives even more options and it also has a beautiful theme.
 
GF....Ever since I was a kid, riding the monorail past it, on our way to MK, I would get chills.
 
I LOVE the Poly concierge! We have stayed at the Poly twice but only once concierge. I'm trying the POP in March to save money but I'm a little scared. :D
 
I have always wanted to stay at the Animal Kingdom Lodge - do I really need a reason why? :p I can't get enough of the theming/atmosphere, the animals, Boma, Jiko, making crayon rubbings on the lobby floor, the Tusker Beer...

Hopefully this will finally happen once the DVC villas open and we can use our points!
