Which DVC resort??

Hi,

Me, my DH, and DD (22 years old) are planning a 4 or 5-day trip. For those that have recently visited Disney, which resorts have the most dining options open and the best transportation options available? We normally drive so transportation hasn't been a concern in the past. We've always wanted to stay at Poly, but not sure that's our best option for this trip. Thanks!

which resorts have the most dining options open

SSR and OKW are going to have the most variety without any park tickets as you have DS
BCV, BWV, RIV will have the best sit down options without park tickets (include Swan/Dolphin for food options) between their group and then by adding Park Hoppers within Epcot it expands your food options a ton.

Most resorts don't really have much variety in general though and its why I love the Epcot area because lots of resorts closely grouped (even by skyliner) and you have Epcot which is the food capital of WDW.

best transportation options available

BCV, BWV, RIV is going to be the best likely to eliminate the need for bussing the longest portion of your trip.

We've always wanted to stay at Poly

Are you members so go back often? If so I would check if POLY will be fully open for your trip and if not I would skip it at least this trip. If its fully open then go for POLY if its always been on the list.

I am always going to be partial to Epcot because nothing can beat the access to Epcot in the evening as food and variety. Plus doing Epcot in the evening leaves rope drops and day touring to the other resorts.

Nice thing about Poly is you can walk over to the Grand Floridan for additional food options, It’s a quick walk to the TTC to hop on the monorail,...since Poly station is closed....and then you can also go to BLT.

I also like BLT for the same reason if you want to be near park. Another option of course is one of the Epcot ones so you can go in and out of that now that park hopping is coming back,

We have stayed at SSR which is great for Disney Springs, but hate the buses to the park so we just Uber in the mornings instead,
