What's your favorite thing about your favorite resort?

Great question! I can't ever decide on my favorite resort, but All Star Movies is up there! I love the red carpet they have running from the porte cochiere to the front door. It means they know how special you are as a guest!

Hi,

I never noticed the red carpet at All Star Movies. I try to stay in a different resort each trip, but I think my favorite is Wilderness Lodge. It feels very comfortable.

Wilderness Lodge and AKL compete for my favorite for the reason Jim says. They feel very ... lodgy. You really feel comfortable and that you're in someplace substantial.

Hi,

I finally have achieved the title of "Elite Member" after "Working" first as a newbie and then as a member! Woo hoo!

The NCAA basketball Tournament media ought to rename some of their brackets:

Selected Sixty-Five;
Threshing Thirty Two;
Sweet Sixteen;
Elite Eight;
Final Four;
Torrid Two;
Outstanding One.

Did I ever tell you about Wednesday, November 30, 2005, when I checked into Wilderness Lodge? The check-in clerk, Jackie, said, "Welcome Home" (even though I am not and have never been a DVC member). Expecting a fourth- or fifth-floor room with a view of the parking lot, I got upgraded to a first-floor, handicapped-accessible room with a king bed. I know it's a hotel, but I've always liked earth-tone colors like brown, orange and yellow, and the place feels like a home I've always wanted.

We usually don't care for the showers in the handicapped accessible rooms. You're okay with them?

What are your new names for the brackets?

Wilderness Lodge is great! It's so beautiful -- and very comfortable, you're so right. The red carpet at ASM is just as you walk into the lobby from the porte cochere. Very cool.

I always find both the lodges so comfortable. They also seem like they have more activities than the other resorts.

Hi,

I didn't mind the shower in the handicapped accessible room. In fact, I don't even remember it now, since I haven't been to WDW in two years, or anywhere in three months.

I've never complained about the facilities in any room. Things are as they are, and unless I have significant control over my surroundings, complaining does little good. Because I usually travel alone, even the smallest rooms aren't cramped, unless a room is literally so small that I must leave it to turn around. Such a room would be the size of a Mission:Space pod.

I LOVE the Polynesian's atmosphere. The flowers and plants, waterfall, the beach area, the tiki torches at night, the water right there....*sigh* it's heaven!

Coronado Springs is one of my favorite resorts, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the hammocks all lined up on the beach. And the margaritas -- get a little splash of midori in there and it's like heaven.

I'd say the lake at CSR. It's so beautiful.

I love the walk to the Magic Kingdom from the Contemporary and the walk to Epcot from the Boardwalk and Beach Club!
