The View from the Room

[Dana49]

Of all the views that you've had from your room at a Walt Disney World Resort, which would you want again and again?
We had a view from our 5th floor room at the Yacht Club that overlooked the lake and the Boardwalk Resort. At night, you had a partial view of Illuminations. The view alone was worth the price of admission.

the incredible view of the magic kingdom from the balcony of our tower room #4740 at the contemporary!

Room 6034, Woods View, Wilderness Lodge, North Side -- near perfect view of Castle and Contemporary from balcony - could even see the majority of the Wishes show.

Humm... We'd had quite a few good WDW views. The "top views" would probably be the Contemporary Tower Club Room, MK View on the 12th floor; Grand Floridian Lagoon View Rooms (Sago Cay & Big Pine Key, MK Views); Polynesian Concierge Lagoon View Rooms (3rd floor); Wilderness Lodge, sixth floor inner Courtyard View; and the BoardWalk Villas, fifth floor boardwalk view.

We also stayed at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee, fifth floor in Emerald Bay, with an atrium view, and that was a beautiful view as well.

The one I liked best was over looking the boradwalk...I am hoping to get that this yr when I go. I also like AK, savanahh view, , Wl woods view, we could see the castle changing colors every night ,Polly concierge right in front of the castle Yc a parking lot view but it was nice, I could get glimpses of people coming and going, even a bride....another words I think Disney has all good views

My favorite room was my last room (s) 4479 and 4481 at AKL comprising a two bedroom suite. We had a great view of Uzima savannah out one balcony, and the double wide balcony was overlooking the edge of the hot tub area/savannah. What I liked about that view was hearing the lovely African music drifting up as I watched the bongo line up to eat.

Another favorite is room 726? (I think), at the Swan. We always say hi to our room as it is easy to spot. It is the top balcony on the corner facing the boardwalk. Good view of illuminations plus where else can you dance on the boardwalk bridge and sing to your kids who are waiting for you on the balcony? (a moment they'd like to forget!) It was a wonderful room where you can lay in your heavenly bed and look out upon Spaceship Earth, or look forward and see a great view of the Dolphin out of your other window.

AHHH can't forget 4466, a reg savannah view room. (Yes you can request a different room than deluxe if you're staying concierge!) When you look out all you can see is "MY SAVANNAH!". I've also been next door during a trip in 4465, but 66 is on the corner and not only has a slightly longer balcony, but has an extra chest of drawers in it and a bonus long hallway/entry way as part of the room.

They're all favorites in one way or another (even that first allstars stay!; They're all Disney!

11th floor park view room at the CR. I'd pick it every time.

Lagoon view room at the GF - we always got very lucky and received a fantastic view of the castle. Though I know it's the position in which the GF was built, I could never understand why the beautiful MK views belonged only to the lodges - deluxe concierge only has pool views and the MK view concierge rooms aren't that great in my opinion. I hated watching people eat hot dogs from my balcony.

The view from BWI concierge deluxe is lovely too (a panoramic view of the area) but there's no comparison to having a room with a view of Cinderella's Castle.

Lagoon/Boardwalk/Illuminations view from Yacht Club!
Totally cool.
We're requesting the same room we've had the last two trips again this year.

Room 3507, lagoon view, Hawaii building, Polynesian resort. Just about dead center for a spectacular view of Cindy's castle and Wishes, close to the concierge lounge but far enough away from smoking optional rooms at the end of the hall. We had made ressies next year for BCV but are now splitting our ressie as the crew wants to go back to the Poly!

I agree! We had da YC view of the Boardwalk that was incredible. It is so beautiful lit up at night. We were also over looking the Wedding Gazebo, and had views of the lagoon and the Eiffel Tower from WS's France!!
