Yacht/Beach club- you can't beat the sand bottom pool.

I really loved the Boardwalk. For one, there was so much going on outside. There are terrific restaurants and shops just outside. And our view of Crescent Lake was spectacular.

Then there's the fact that Epcot is just a slight walk away. (Disney Hollywood Studios is walkable, as well.) And the Yacht & Beach are just across the lake. I thought the location was very hard to beat.

Great Rooms. Great View. Great Location. Great Shopping. Great Eats. Great Entertainment. Hard to beat!!!

French Quarter. We like the theming and it's nice that it's a smaller, more compact resort. We also love the boat to DTD.

All these old threads are getting resurrected. So much fun, since I wasn't on the forums the last time they were at the top.

My favorite hotel has got to be the Poly. I have great memories there. Second favorite is AKL. If only it weren't so far from everything, it would be number 1.

We recently bought points at BCV because of the pool (we are a family that likes to swim). We've never stayed there, though. I hope I like it.

Of the ones I've stayed at, Contemporary is my favorite. Wilderness Lodge is my dream resort. That will be on our trip for next year.

I love Animal Kingdom Lodge. I could move right in! We always end up at Pop for DD but some day I will be able to stay at AKL again.

Poly is by far my favorite.

I also enjoyed the Treehouses and Old Key West!
The sand bottom pool is awesome, but the original pool at poly was my favorite going under that waterfall to get onto the slide is something I have never forgotten from my childhood!!:figment::donald:

I have never gotten to stay at a deluxe resort...but one of these days I will.

Of the places I have stayed...I would have to say Shades of Green was the prettiest and had huge rooms...whereas Saratoga Springs was probably the most fun to stroll around since it's so big. Then again...the atmosphere at POFQ was awesome on my last trip. Dang this is tough!

Our favorite is the Poly, but we can't afford to stay there every time. We try to stay there when the whole family gets together - about once every 3 years. Since the Magic Kingdom is the favorite park for our family, the Poly is a great choice. Other times when it's just me and DW, we really like Port Orleans Riverside. We like both resorts because they are relatively peacefull.
