Staying at all the resorts? How close are you to finishing?

[jworkkul]

I've stayed at nearly all the WDW resorts including the DVC's but I have not stayed at AOA yet. It's still early in their development so, I'll get around to it soon. My fav? I guess it would be a toss up between GF and BLT.

 

[Kimbeachy]

ASM - never again
ASMu - never again
Pop
POR - numerous times
CS
Poly - numerous times
CR
AKL
AOA - this December
Like others have said, some I have no desire to do and some we return to often and some we will never do again. Still have GF on my list.

I used to think about doing this (sans the values), but I doubt it will happen.

Have done all the mods except CBR, and now that my DS is getting older, we really have no interest in staying there. We are doing POR for a 2nd time next spring (Seemed like the best choice for a large family group), and I would stay at CSR again any time.

Have done WL and AKL. Would do WL again if it was a good deal. AKL was beautiful, but we all got tired of it after a few days. Would only stay there again for a weekend or something like that (Like the restaurants).

Stayed at the YC (I consider BC to really be the same resort), and while the BW is pretty and fun to walk over to, I really don't have much interest in staying there. Staying outside EPCOT is really my favorite thing to do, so the great prices we got at the Swan and Dolphin will probably attract the DW and I as we start taking adult only trips.

Moving forward, I would like to stay at a monorail resort one time, probably Poly of GF.

Are there 20 resorts? Did I count right?
So far we've only done 7. We've done, OKW, WL, CR, BLT, BWV, BWI, and BCV.

We have a cruise scheduled for next May and plan to do 1 night at Disney resort before and after the cruise. AKL is the one of them, but I think the last night we'll stay at either AoA or Pop. So then I can mark two more off the list!

 

[tinkerbellybutton]

I plan to stay at every resort as well. Over the years we've managed to stay at quite a few! I'll break it down by resort catagory and a list of where we have stayed and which resorts we still have left to try.

Wilderness Lodge Villas (I don't really count it since it's right there with WL)
Beach Club (don't really count it since it's right there with BCV)
Boardwalk (don't really count it since it's with BWV)
Dolphin

We've also stayed at Disney's Vero Beach resort already, and hope to stay at Disney's Hilton Head Island resort maybe next summer. After that I want to start working on other Disney vacations. We are planning an extended family Disney Cruise summer of 2014, and we'd like to visit Disneyland and Aulani within the next 5 years.

Of course we keep going back to our favorite resorts. We've stayed at Wilderness Lodge around 5 or 6 times now, and we may be staying there with extended family for Thanksgiving of 2013. If we didn't do repeat visits we'd surely have just about all resorts done by now!

 

[*Fantasia*]

I'm afraid I won't be able to stay at all of them because the cost of most of the deluxe rooms are way beyond my budget. I think I am just going to stick with moderates and values which is fine with me. But there are few that doesn't appeal much to me. The resorts that I have stayed at in on my signature.

 

[tripletsmama]

All we have left is Wilderness Lodge, Contemporary, and Art of Animation and then we will have tried them all! Beach Club has always been our favorite through all of the stays. We have a quick weekend booked in November at Art of Animation in a Little Mermaid room and a few nights of a January trip are booked in a 1 bedroom at Bay Lake Tower at the Contemporary, so then it'll just be Wilderness Lodge!

 

[shoes99]

We are very close. I need to stay at Art of Animation to complete my list.
DH says we also have to list Shades of Green and The Swan too.
I have been travelling to WDW from NJ since 1973.
We completed the DCL mini-grand slam. Dream, Fantasy, Wonder & Magic.

[tinkerbellmagic]

My grandson and I started a wish list of every resort we want to stay at. We only have 3 main resorts left on our wish list.

Our wish list in this order:

Grand Floridian
Animal Kingdom Lodge
Boardwalk

Our "B" wish list - these are maybes
Contemporary (grandson would like to stay here, I'm not a huge fan, but if we got a decent price, then yes)
Swan/Dolphin (we would only stay here if it became part of the magical express and if we got a good deal)
Art of Animation (oh the thrill of a new resort)

Have stayed at:
Pop Century
Caribbean Beach
Coronado Springs
Port Orleans Riverside 2x
Bay Lake Tower
Beach Club
Polynesian 4x
Saratoga Springs
Wilderness Lodge
Yacht Club (I stayed here before, but grandson hasn't and wants to)

I think when we fulfill our top three, then we will get to choose our favorites to stay at again, or try something new. I absolutely love agonizing over choosing our resort. It's my favorite thing.

Fun thread

I use my signature as my resort bucket list. By my calculations I have the following left:
CR, YC, BWI, POFQ, CSR, AOA & All-Stars. W're staying at SSR next!
I can tell you for certain I have absolutely no desire to stay at the All-Stars so those I just don't count on my list

 

[mlwolcott1]

We have stayed at

Fort Wilderness
Port Orleans French Quarter
Wilderness Lodge
Boadwalk Inn
All-Star Movies
Contemporary
Pop Century

Adding
Animal Kingdom and Dolphin on next trip

Would like to stay everywhere. Last and upcoming trip included split stays which I am into now. Like the change and experience at different resorts

 

[alyssa810]

I don't know that we'll ever finish, just because I'm way too cheap to fork over $$$ for GF, but I am super excited for our first BCV stay in September! We're also planning to book our first night at either ASMu or ASMo (to save DVC points, and to knock another resort off our list). Here's our current list:

WL
AKL and AKV
BWV
SSR
OKW
CBR
POR
POFQ
CSR
CBR
POP

At DL we've stayed at the DLH and GCV, and at DLP, we stayed at NB and SL.

 

[Sammie]

We have stayed at all of them except AOA and many of the deluxe, villas and moderates several times.

 

[danceintherain]

I've only done two - CBR & AKL. I've only be aware of on-property for 3 years though.
On our next trip we'll likely check either Port Orleans or Wilderness Lodge off our list. POP has always been my fall back for a Value, but honestly I may eventually decide that staying off property is a better choice if we're really trying to save money. It's possible that we may stay at them for the bulk of some trips before trying out some of the more expensive Deluxes. We'll see.

 

[autismgoesdisney]

I'm so glad there are other crazies out there doing this as well

Anyway, we aren't very far 5

POP
AsSp (I am counting all the AllStars as one though)
POR
CSR (before kids)
Poly (as a kid and I hardly remember it!)


The problem with us is that we are a family of five and so far I haven't been able to talk my kids (or hubby) into staying home so we can try CSR, POFQ, AKL or WL...I'm thinking eventually someone will stay home for a few trips and I will get those in

[BlovesC]

for the poster above me, WOW!

Staying at every resort at least once used to be my dream, but I quickly realized it's probably never ever going to happen. The resorts I love, I REALLY love, and I seriously get homesick for them when I try new ones.

We've stayed at:
CR
SSR
VWL
AKL
AKLV
BC
POFQ

New resorts (for us) coming up this year:
POR
AoA


Resorts I'd love to try:
Poly
CBR
CSR
POP
YC


Resorts I have no desire to try and will most likely never stay at:
GF
OKW
All-Stars
FW
Boardwalk

 

[Jabba20000]

I have yet to stay at:

GF
SSR
POR
POFQ
ASMovies
ASMusic
