Randomly Themed DVC Resort Ideas

[Spivey378]

What are some of your random DVC resort themes if you were to create your own DVC resort?

What about a Hair Metal themed resort? When you get to your room, it is already trashed. They play super loud hair metal music throughout the resort at all hours. Nikki Sixx is always in the room next door.

I always loved the idea of an early American / colonial Williamsburg type resort.
It could be (and should be) a large resort. Think of the possibilities… early American furniture, cobble stone sidewalks, early style taverns, lantern style lighting along the cable stone walkways,… the list goes on and on.
Think Liberty Tree Tavern as a resort.

Would be a fantastic theme with endless possibilities.

That said, folks are more concerned about location vs immersive theming. I’m the opposite.
I prefer AKL because of the theming. I don’t care about an extra five minutes to the parks. I want to be transported to another place.

I always thought a Ski Chalet themed resort with private entrance to Blizzard Beach would be fun...

How about a Haunted Mansion resort. Ghosts following you down the hallway. Ghosts in the mirrors in the bathroom. The walls breathe. Everytime you turn off the lights you hear that famous laugh from the stretching room. maybe pictures on the walls where the eyes follow you as you walk. A restaurant where the pictures on the walls talk to you and all the staff is in complete HM character ! The Restaurant is exactly like the HM party scene.

I LOVE this idea!

Probably would work better than my Hair Metal concept.

I've heard folks talk about making a Haunted Mansion resort that is immersive like the Starcruiser. That would be awesome!

Value Resorts themed to famous Disney movie bombs. Along those lines, turn the Star Cruiser into a Black Hole-themed experience.

They wanted to build that in Virginia in the 1990's

They could add in Guitar Hero as a planned activity lol!

What about Tangled themed..... You are locked in the resort, the CM's are passive aggressive and you get to paint the walls!

Ok ok so maybe not like that but really, how about Tangled? Beautiful architecture if modeled after the castle, lovely water view with nightly lantern light show and the Snuggly Duckling as a restaurant!

Interesting. I do remember talk of the resort, but I didn’t realize it was going to have a colonial theme.

One of several historical themes

I always thought that there should be DVC themed to New Orleans (I know there is a moderate that is), perhaps adding in Princess and the Frog IP.

That might be a little much as a hotel, but a HM themed restaurant would be really cool, IMO. I'd love to be immersed in that for a couple of hours. At my resort, not so much.

Adventures Club DVC by animal kingdom --Kungaloosh

Or Encanto themed by epcot entrance with s secret Bruno concierge floor

Would love a resort like AKV but themed to Asia rather than Africa. Put it next to AK too and I'd be all over that. BTW, I love the idea of a HM restaurant and New Orleans themed DVC - POFQ is my favourite moderate. Beignets baby!

As a "woman of a certain age" I'd get a kick out of a character retirement home theme! Mickey and Minnie would have wrinkles and gray ears and wouldn't be frolicking around, they'd have to sit to meet guests and use walkers when they got up. You could register your meds ahead of time and your Magic Band would remind you when it's time to take them and you'd tap it to automatically dispense them. You'd get Ben-Gay in a wall mounted dispenser. Phones and TV remotes would have simple, big buttons. Of course the in-house restaurant would offer meals catering to diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol, etc.

I do love the way you feel transported to another place when you are at AKL.

I'm someone who really values easy access to the parks, but I ALSO love really great theming. I'd sacrifice location for theming if it was really something I was excited about.
