Opinions Needed: Monorail Resorts at Christmas

[whitney250]

In your opinion, which monorail resort is the best at Christmas time? We just returned from our first trip and stayed at the Contemporary, theme park view (which we LOVED), but is there the views of Magic Kingdom at any of the other resorts that the Contemporary has? Also, which are the best themed for Christmas?

TIA!

That is a hard one. Contemporary is very convenient (as you know). I love the Christmas decorations at Wilderness Lodge (quick boat ride). The tree in the lobby is huge! Grand Floridian is also very pretty and the gingerbread house is beautiful. Poly is also nice, but personally would be my last pick. I think any of the MK resorts would make your Christmas visit special!

I bet they are super gorgeous... Im kicking myself for not exploring the other resorts! Contemporary is definitely super convenient, and I loved the CMs there, they were very sweet to my grandmother. She had so much fun this next trip was her idea! But I love the theming of WL from photos I have seen, soooo gorgeous! It's definitely a hard decision!

Out of monorail only resorts, I still think contemporary is going to have some of the best views. However the better Christmas decoration would be the Grand Floridian. Since the decorations are in the lobby, it's easy to go visit another resort to see their decorations. It's not as easy to wake up to spectacular views out of your room.

Thanks! We loved Contemporary, and are leaning towards it again, but I want to explore our options!

We have started wayyyy early this time around! We plan on making it another girls only trip I'm really glad our Christmas trip will be our second since there seems to be SO much more to do at that time of year. We know how to plan and navigate the property much better lol
