Lets say you want to buy a drink at the bar and hang out in the lobby of these 5 deluxe resorts. Which bars would anyone suggest?

Poly - Tambu lounge. Obvious.

WL - Geyser Pt bar is good, but is there anything closer to the lobby?

Boardwalk - Belle vue lounge.

GF - what?

Contemporary - what?

Edit: 6th resort: AKL - what?

And any others anyone might suggest. Thanks in advance.
 

As others have said-Territory Lounge at WL, Enchanted Rose at GF and also Steakhouse 71 lounge at CR.
 
Boardwalk - Belle vue lounge.
Kind of boring. Try Abracabar downstairs on the BW.
WL - Geyser Pt bar is good, but is there anything closer to the lobby?
Territory Lounge is right off the lobby
GF - what?
Enchanted Rose.
Contemporary - what?
Good question. Basically it's the outer rim lounge or Steakhouse 71.
6th resort: AKL - what?
Victoria Lounge is great there.
 
Definitely the Territory Lounge. Good snacks too - we particularly liked the cheese and charcuterie platter. The orange-scented sangria was good but the Orchard's Bounty was better. Geyser Point too of course. Take your drink down by the water.

We enjoyed Outer Rim at CR - it's still loud in the lobby but the lounge is tucked away a little bit so it is a bit quieter.

Love Victoria Falls for a pre-dinner drink.

Boardwalk - Abracadabar is nice as is the Bellevue Lounge but Crew's Cup Lounge across the way at YC is very nice and the food is good although the menu is limited. If you like garlic, the pull apart bread is not to be missed and IIRC, I had a superb margarita there.
 
Outer Rim at the Contemporary is my husband’s favorite. It is smaller and tucked away but still in the middle of all the action at Contemporary. Service has always been fantastic.

WL - Territory Lounge used to be good mid 2000’s but as of my January 2024 trip geyser point was my jam. I went 5 times.

Boardwalk - Abracadabar

GF - never been

Contemporary - steakhouse 71 lounge

Edit: 6th resort: AKL - Victoria falls is ok. Good views and location.

And any others anyone might suggest. Thanks in advance. Go to Springs and Polite Pig or Jock Lindsay. Both are great fun. Also 3 bridges at Coronado is awesome for a chill spot on the water.

 
I know this lounge is beloved by many, however, if you want to get in at opening at Enchanted Rose, a line forms outside. They will take you inside and seat you. I like to choose my own table after wandering around and so this was a negative for me.

Once seated, it took awhile for the server to come to the table. Be advised that the food menu is limited until 5pm. Drinks are on the smaller side and very expensive. Atmosphere is just ok, but maybe I didn't get a good seat location. There is an outside patio as well.
