Which Resort in December??

[disneycjm]

My DH, DD and I are planning a trip Dec. 19th thru the 24th. My question is which resort would be the best for a December stay? I know that swimming will be limited and wonder if a All Star is the way to go. This is our first trip.

swimming may not be limited--it will all depend on the weather. i would consider the wilderness lodge as it is fabulous at christmas or any other time for that matter. but whatever you decide, i would definitely book ASAP!! good luck!

I agree WL or AKL are both beautiful at xmas.

Boardwalk is beautiful at Christmas

Beach Club is beautiful at Christmas

Grand Floridian is BEAUTIFUL at Christmas

Old Key West has a great fish Christmas theme

Animal Kingdom is beautiful at Christmas

I have to say though that even though GF is just unreal gorgeous, you can go there for breakfast and take in the Christmas decor.

My vote goes to Boardwalk. It is just gorgeous.

WL is absolutely beautiful at Christmas and with very cozy wintery feeling. Because Christmas is a wintery holiday I just don't think of the Poly or BC having that holiday feeling.

I don't know if I'm getting the right impression from your post, but are you saying that because of the swimming possibly being limited you're shooting to stay at a value resort, or you need to stay at a value resort?

Personally, although I'm spoiled with a Deluxe room, I'd definitely consider staying at any of the Deluxes with the exception of Contemporary or Polynesian. Those two just don't seem to have any holiday atmosphere to them whatsoever. Even the BC has a carousel and large Christmas tree in the lobby, and I believe YC does a Gingerbread House. BWI and Villas has an impressive display in their lobby, and you can't beat the tree at the GF.
