Our goal is to stay at as many of the WDW resorts as health and cash allows. Port Orleans Riverside is the only resort we visited more than once. Magnolia Bend first and after taking a horse drawn carriage ride through Alligator Bayou we really wanted to stay there. We did three nights at POR-AB before getting on the Disney Dream. Eight down, too many to go!!!

The only ones we have NOT stayed at are no Ft wilderness, No Grand Floridian, villas or reg rooms. no Kidani. We will be staying at GF villas later this year, so almost all of them. I imagine we will eventually stay at a cabin in Ft Wilderness, just to try it, same with Kidani and dont forget the new Copper Creek-but that is really still WL just remed new section of dvc there.

We have tried a different resort every time we have visited WDW:

All Star Music
Caribbean Beach
Polynesian
Old Key West
Art of Animation
Contemporary
Grand Floridian

We've loved all the resorts for different reasons, but we very much enjoyed the CR for the ability to walk to MK and we very much enjoyed the GF for the overall experience.

We are staying at Port Orleans French Quarter in June. We are nervous about returning to a mod after staying at deluxes, but everything I've read re: POFQ tells me it is a nice resort.

Our favorite moderate is Coronado and we have stayed there multiple times because the mods are generally on our price range. My absolute fave resort is Animal Kingdom Lodge and we are staying there for the 2nd time in November with free dining this year. Love the Poly and the close proximity to MK but the animal views and lobby (especially at Christmas) at AKL are going to top my list!
