We ( DHB and me) stayed a week at POFQ from 02/03 till 02/10 and we loved it. We had a first floor corner room with a kingbed in building 4 and the room was so nice, it looked like a deluxe-room. Building 4 is really close to the foodcourt and the busstop, so that was very convenient. One day we decided to have some lunch at the POR and that was a only a 10 minute walk away. We had some meals at the POFQ foodcourt, that we liked a lot. DHB enjoyed the chicken jambalaya and I had the potroast that was really good.
For lunch they serve a real nice tacosalad and their chicken enchilladas are also very tasty.
The foodcourt is rather small I think, but you were also able to eat your meal in the lobby of the hotel at the tables of the bar. The hotel was very crowded, contestants of the National Dance Championship were staying there as well. We were there during Mardi Gras and CMs gave us beads and had a very small parade with the golfcarts the CM use. It was rather funny :)
One day we wanted to go to DTD by boat, but the line was so huge, that we decided to take the bus. Busservice was great by the way.
We had a very pleasant stay at a lovely hotel with beautiful surroundings and we will be back for sure.
 
My DW, DS and I have stayed there also and we all loved it. The boat ride to DTD was enjoyable, the walk along the river to PORS, the pool theming. I would stay there again and have recomeneded it to others. The surry (sp?) bike at Riverside were also a lot of fun.
 

Stayed there in July and loved it as well. We have a new favorite. The kids loved the pool.
 
Everytime I step out of the car and into POFQ to check in , I get that incredible excited feeling in my stomach. It feels like my very loved, second home! I love the rooms, the grounds, pool, and foodcourt. The jazzy music in the background is nice too. I can't wait to go visit again! Last time I was there, I got up a little early every morning and walked to POR and back by the river. It was so beautiful watching the rising sun on the water and listening to the birds chirping - very tranquil. :flower: :flower:
 
Glad you had a good trip and thank you for telling us about it. :flower:
We are staying there at the end of April and really looking forward to it. :banana:
 
Glad you had a great time!! We'll be going in back in August. :sunny:
 
We will be staying there March 4th - 12th. I'm glad to hear good reviews becuase I had such a hard time making a decision on the resort being a first timer.

Anyone have a favorite building. I know that we would like to be on the upper floor (less noise from above). It will be me, DD (6) and Mom (I won't give her age or she would kill me). I still have not faxed room requests.

Thank you
 
Thanks for the review! We're staynig there in a couple of weeks...decided the budget wouldn't hold up to AKL. Can anyone tell me how far Riverside is from FQ? I'm wondering if we can use the pool there and if so, how far away it is. Thanks.

Beth :)
