Grand Floridan - it is so elegant and grand! Proximity to the Magic Kingdom is awesome too!

I loved Wilderness Lodge as a teen ,for it seemed like all the food was great and there always seemed to be small detail that I got the joy of discovering throughout several trips.

I’m across the lake from Anamarie, my favorite is Fort Wilderness. It’s just so calming and pretty, and there’s a real sense of community

Never been, but the Animal Kingdom Hotel looks astonishing. Same with the Wilderness Lodge. Camping at Disney World is definitely on the bucket list.

I love Bay Lake Tower or the Polynesian. The past couple of trips I've been on I stayed at Bay Lake with a theme park view so I was able to see the fireworks almost every night!

Grand Floridian and Animal Kingdom are my favorites! I know they're two completely different experiences, but those are the two I used to stay at the most as a kid and I have a soft spot for them. Nothing beats walking into the Jambo House lobby!

My favourites are the Yacht Club and Animal Kingdom Lodge - they are both just truly breathtaking.

Hmmm....I love going to resorts and just visiting. The atmospheres are so unique and it's a really nice break from the fast pace of the parks. The theming of these are unique as previously stated, so comparing them on that level (to me at least) is like comparing apples to oranges. And of course, I can't choose just one. So I'll give my picks for different categories.
Food: Beach Club/Boardwalk, Poly, Wilderness Lodge (Artist Point is really good!), Port Orleans duo, AKL
Location: Beach Club/Boardwalk (Epcot is literal steps away), Poly, Grand Floridian
Aesthetic/ Theming: AKL, Poly, Beach & Board, Grand Floridian
I have to give honorable mentions to Pop Century and Art of Animation as value resorts. Pop's remodel looks great and the theming of Animation is, in my opinion, sorely underrated.

What is your favorite Disney Resort as a teen and why?

Pop Century! The oversized versions of popular toys through the decades are so much fun, the pools are amazing, and everything is just so beautifully decorated!

My daughter is turning 13 in May and we are planning a trip! She only wants to go to Animal Kingdom! Should we stay at Animal Kingdom and make it a whole experience or stay somewhere else?

animal kingdom lodge is one of me and my sibling's FAVORITE resorts! if she loves swimming, i think beach/yacht club would be her favorite considering the awesome pool and lazy river they share.

AKL has amazing rooms, especially if you get the savannah view. however, the only drawback to AKL is their transportation; it is pretty isolated in terms of location.

you can also do a split stay! message me if you have any other questions i can gladly answer them

We've only been able to stay at the moderates. Out of them so far, it has been Coronado, but that may change now that the Port Orleans are both updated. I would love to stay at Boardwalk some day.
