The resorts share buses, but POFQ guests are the first to be picked up and the first to be dropped off.![]()
They are similar resorts, you are looking more at theming and size of the resorts. POF is very small, POR is larger - the pools are different, the food courts are different, the atmosphere is different. POR has more of the recreation and a sit-down restaurant. You can walk between the two resorts and use either pool/recreation.
I have about 100 photos between the two here: http://www.mousesteps.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=23&Itemid=49
No room photos, but walking around the resorts. I prefer the POF, but because I'm very big on anything French themed.![]()
I've heard the restaraunt at Riverside is one of the best hotel restaraunt out there. But if its covering for two hotels is it always crowded? Do you think we could just walk up and get a table or should I make reservations first?
I checked out your photos Denise, very good eye BTW. I guess sense the two resorts are so closely linked to oneanother its only a matter of taste as to which one is best. But your pictures made me think of one thing. I know the misquitos are pretty bad in Florida, but with all that water surrounding the two hotels, are they worse around there, or does Disney seem to do a pretty good job at keeping them down?
When compared to the parks you just spent the entire day walking around, the resort is not that big. I know folks don't want to be walking around after a day at the parks. But really, the percentage of walking you would end up doing at POR is no where near what you do at the parks.
The pool at POFQ is smaller, and the slide is more baby-ish if you have teenagers.
