    My husband & I are planning a trip for April 2010. We are in our sixties. What resort would be best for us. We have stayed at the Port Orleans French Quarter and loved it, but want to try something different.

    Rachelle:

    I think any of the Epcot resorts would be a great choice!  Beach & Yacht Club or Boardwalk Inn offer proximity to not only Epcot and Disney Studios by boat, but also the shops and entertainment of the Boardwalk.  Their accommodations are a little more mature and the setting, romantic.

    If the two of you enjoy dining, thisarea offers a large variety of restaurants both at the hotels and through the International Gateway to Epcot's World Showcase.  Piano bar Jellyrolls sports dueling pianos.

    You didn't mention your budget, but if these deluxe hotels stretch you, consider the Swan & Dolphin that sit between Boardwalk and the Yacht & Beach Club.  Although the hotels are run by Starwood and not Disney (so you wouldn't have package delivery or the ability to add the dining plan)  they have the deluxe feel and are nearer to the price range of the French Quarter.  They also have discounts for teachers and goverment employees.

    Wishing y'all a magical time together!

My family of 6 appreciates Disney's value! Although Ft. Wilderness is our second home, we've enjoyed the resorts for business, reunions and romantic getaways. For me, Disney also means dining: last count, I'd eaten at 55 restaurants around the World! Learn More About Whitney
