I think the Wilderness Lodge presents one of the best themed resorts...It is by far my favorite resort...I also think the Boardwalk is amazing..plus it is within walking distance to my favorite park, Epcot. I could also make an argument for Port Orleans Riverside and Saratoga Springs

There are sooo many good resorts to choose from. We've stayed at all the DVC resorts (except AKV) and are staying at BLT this November. I am not sure what to think about the tower, my personal favorite is the Beach Club due to pool and location. The tower has a great location, but not sure about the high-rise style and not having any real property to walk around. On our last trip we stayed at POFQ and loved it. I wouldn't hesitate to go back there.

Although Poly is our most fav. resort, but when we stayed at the YC this past visit, we did have to admit that the pool blew all others away!!! On our next visit, it will be a tough call between the Poly and the YC.

My wife and I love Wilderness Lodge. The look and feel are a relaxing change after a long day at the parks. Artist's Point is a great restaurant, but I wish WL had a few more food choices. The best part is the boat ride to Magic Kingdom.

Second would be the Poly. Takes us back to the fun parts of Hawaii.

Third - AK Lodge.

I love Animal Kingdom Lodge and the Boardwalk, though the pool is better across the way at Beach Club. Just love both of those architectural styles, you feel a "wow" moment when you step inside.

I wish I could combine the carbbean tropicalness with the boardwalk!! We are going on our honeymoon and we thought that we would like to just have to boardwalk for the nights, but we really like the beach and the trees and that tropical feel!

Old Key West for us . . . We've been staying there exclusively since 1992 except for one weekend stay at Saratoga Springs. For some, OKW is a little too laid back (read: boring) but we're always so happy to pull up to the main gate and be greeted with "Welcome Home!"

so we are thinking of staying at the tree house villas for or honeymoon in January of 2011. Our family was thinking about coming and staying with us. What are the pros and cons of the tree house villas?

The thing about the Treehouses is that you need a car. I think they're very cool and would love to stay in one someday, but unless you have a car, you're kind of stuck in the middle of nowhere.

Do they have bathrooms in them, or do you have to venture out of your treehouse to a central bathroom area? That would be a big con for me! Otherwise, staying in a treehouse = awesome!

As I stated earlier (at least I think I did :D ) all the resorts have their own special thing to offer. However, I feel the Yacht and Beach are the best WDW resort.... I would still say the Yacht has the edge on the Beach though.
