    I was once stuck on the tower of terror with one of said cheerleading groups and the *moment* those doors closed, they all started screaming. It was so. Loud. Loud enough that apparently the cast members outside heard, because when we were getting off the ride they pulled my group aside, took us to the front of the line and let us ride again 😅

    For those who don't know, back in the he 70's and 80's the Contemporary Hotel did NOT have a 13th floor. When riding the elevator the numbers skipped from 12th to 14th floors. I don't know if it is still like that now though.

    Boardwalk, when in full prime time, when all the entertainment, restaurants and bars open are the absolute tip top of Disney hotels. I loved how it was almost it's own mini Downtown Disney. It's definitely been toned down since the pandemic, but when it was in it's peak it was absolutely the best. Plus a walk way away into the World Showcase (the best part of Disney World) is a big bonus.

    I swear you are my Disney brother. Haunted mansion is the best and so is the Poly! The constant Hawaiian music, Tonga toast in the morning, Dole whip with no crazy line, trader Sam’s and the white beach to sit at during sunset looking over the water. My wife and I tried to get married there two years ago. Then Covid happened. Was that the boardwalk two weeks ago for the first time. Really liked it! Saw the creepy chairs and went to abracadabar. Awesome! The resorts are another reason my wife and I are trying to move there from Colorado. Great video man!

  • @syx9986
    @syx9986 2 года назад +95

    I feel that Fort Wilderness should get an A-tier rating. It offers a versatility that the other resorts can't provide. There's space and privacy if you want to rest and community if you're more social. It's more of a neighborhood feel versus boxy rooms with hallways. You can prepare regular family meals, or special diet meals in the cabins without having to worry about expensive restaurant menus. If you have an RV, you can come and go easily. When there's holidays, you can do activities with your neighbors or have a cook-out. Children can run. The air is fresh and encourages you to set your own pace for a vacation.

    Man I almost unsubbed when you put Fort Wilderness in C tier... I am a die hard Fort Wilderness person who likes to Dress up the RV, so much so that I bought a hearse and drove it 700 miles to park it in front of the camper for Halloween. You name me another resort that will let you park your hearse in front of your room and I will submit my stance, but Fort Wilderness is at least S tier (it was A then you gave the Poly its own spot Also the Hoopdee doo review is amazing). If you don't believe me, next time I'm heading to DW I will give a personal tour of the campground in the hearse while blasting Grim Grinning Ghosts from the speaker system.

The rooms are GIANT--our one bedroom was on a top floor overlooking a pond and fountain on the golf course. Full kitchen, Jacuzzi tub, and a laundry room IN THE ROOM. Downside was the 5 bus stops; when we figured out which was the first stop, we always went to that one each morning. Pricing is also very very good here, especially if you rent DVC points.

But conversely, our favorite is the Animal Kingdom Lodge. I think you sold this one VERY short. The architecture and art is beautiful and the dining is incredible. And who doesn't want to roast marshmallows at night while watching giraffes?? Waking up in the morning to see the animals being fed outside your balcony?? Unbeatable.

    I’ve been WAITING for this video.
    Maybe start a “things to do at the ___ resort” series?

    What a wonderful video young man. You put so much effort and care into your videos and it is appreciated. My folks went to Disneyland on opening day. I have some great pics. I also went on Grad night for graduation
    The Pointer Sisters played at 3 am. So cool.
    Yeah I'm old . 😁
    Keep up the great work and best wishes.

    Was just at Port Orleans: French Quarter March 19-27, First trip in 30+ years, LOVE this resort. Thought transportation might be an issue, but bus's were fast, friendly and never crowded. Did a Carriage ride from Riverside, best $55+tip spent. So many "Grey Poupon" jokes. Bought a candle for you Mr. Offhand. Keep up the good work. (Slide)

    I went to dinner at the restaurant at the top of The Riviera last year for my birthday and got to watch the EPCOT fireworks from the rooftop. It was glorious. My friends and i are staying in a suite there for our DCP 10 year reunion this fall and I cannot wait to be back!

    Great video! There’s an amazing balcony that overlooks the pool that’s an awesome quiet spot at The Grand Floridian. I love quiet spots at the resorts.

    Port Orleans riverside is the worst hotel, the doors are outside and I always get lizards in my room. And if you take the bus from the park, it takes like 50 stops to get to your building.

    My favourite is the boardwalk, it’s just a good atmosphere and a good location to the parks. And it’s even better once they got rid of the scary clown slide

    I will never agree with any compliments about the yacht club resort because it instantly reminds me of the time I closed my finger on the hotel door and it almost broke them.

    i think gran destino tower and coronado springs should be two different things even though theyre the same resort because of how different the experience is depending on where you stay. ive stayed at both the tower and the actual rooms and hated the actual rooms because of how loud everything was but the tower, oh my god. the smell of it and the lobby was absolutely beautiful and there's a huge mosaic of walt and mickey and! theres a breakfast bar and at night it becomes an actual bar. I love it sooo much more than the original part of the resort.

    Coronado Springs was the only hotel I managed to stay at while I was a CM, so I got that sweet sweet 50% discount on a tower room. It was gorgeous. Nothing really special with the themeing, but the restaurant out on the lake is wonderful.

    I stayed at The Dolphin resort in Florida awhile back (early 2000s) at my last Disney trip and it’s a standard resort with decent amenities but also its statues don’t look like dolphins at all. They literally look like regular fish and it kind of bugs me.

    • @sweetcaroline9596
      @sweetcaroline9596 2 года назад +1

      I’ve thought about this so many times, why did they make the statues look like that?? Feels like a dolphin isn’t that difficult if you’re gonna be commissioning a large fish lol

    • @lanekendall1435
      @lanekendall1435 2 года назад +2

      It's a callback to the European middle ages where dolphins weren't as well known by the public. Various sculptors and artists during that time depicted dolphins as large fish rather than the mammal-like creatures we've known today because they've never seen one in real life and made them based on what they've heard about them. If you go to various European cities, you could see old fountains made during that time that have fish creatures sculpted in them similar to ones at the dolphin resort.

    I've only stayed at All Star Movies and Art of Animation, and im gonna be honest: Art of Animation was awesome. Not only because there was Skyliner access, but also because we were supposed to stay in the Little Mermaid pavillion, but we got bumped up to the Cars pavillion (which was much more expensive,) and also we didn't have to pay for parking anymore :D

    We stayed at the Contemporary fort years, then Port Orleans (my #1 fave), and Riverside. Maybe a few others, but Contemporary was our family favorite. He died recently and the shot of the silver Mickey on the ears, I remember him taking a pic. It was our first time to Disney, I didn't want to go home. I was maybe 8? I had the saddest look on my face, but it was a great trip. Thank you for helping me remember a sweet memory. 🖤
