Hi Dwayne,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I am delighted that you brought this question to us!
Walt Disney World Resort Hotels are amazing! The good news is that there are different categories of resort hotel that fit with different budgets. My family prefers to stay at
deluxe and deluxe villa resort hotels because of the fabulous amenities they offer - unique dining and multiple transportation options. I also appreciate moderate resort hotels. They are typically less expensive than deluxe or deluxe villa resort hotels but
moderate resort hotels have good dining choices also. I have also enjoyed staying at
Value Resort Hotels and I have been able to get some great deals on
vacation packages.
Our favorite deluxe resort hotels are Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, Disney's Contemporary Resort, and Disney's BoardWalk Inn. Disney's Polynesian Village Resort and Disney's Contemporary Resort both have access to the resort monorail and Magic Kingdom is also just a short walk from Disney's Contemporary Resort Hotel. Our rooms in these locations have been quite lovely. My favorite moderate resort hotels are Disney's Port Orleans - Riverside and Disney's Port Orleans - French Quarter. The landscaping at these resorts is gorgeous and I adore the serenity that they have to offer. By far, my favorite value resort hotels are Disney's Art of Animation and Pop Century. Each of these has great food court dining options and fun decor throughout the resort.
Dwayne, sending you pixie dust as you plan!
Magic, memories and Minnie Mouse hugs,
Donyell
