Is there a resort you hate?

**PETE FROM NYC** · 04-13-2009, 01:03 PM

DW and I have stayed both on and off site.
Off site:
Hilton Gateway(doesn't exist any more)
Caravey Inn,gone also
Archway Inn,also gone now
on site:
Port Orleans,before the merge w/ Dixie
Carribean
All Star Movies
All Star Music

All in all,I really can't complain about any of them.For us ,a room is where we sleep,shower and keep our stuff.Don't need anything fancy or some amenities we never use anyway.

Off hand...

hmmmm.....let's see.....let me think.....

hmmmm.....

wait....I got one.....SARATOGA

oh, come on....that was too easy

I am not a fan of Caribbean (as in...I hate it with every cell of my being....)

I think that several are not good enough for the price....namely the poly, contemporary, and Grand....

the whole dixie-port= port = port with half the food options thing has been terrible as well

"Hate" is such a strong word in this instance.....

**buzznwoodysmom** · 04-13-2009, 02:02 PM

I don't think I'd go so far as to say I hate any of the resorts, but I really, really disliked Saratoga. Will most likely never, ever stay there again. I'd choose to stay at any of the moderates and even consider the values before wasting my money at Saratoga again.

No there is not a resort I hate. However, there are some I like less than others (Carribean Beach seems a little on the plain side to me...the theme makes seem pretty much like "anywhere else in Florida" to me)...but we still enjoyed our stay there. Will we go back...not unless all other (afforable) choices are full...but still yet, we don't hate it...its just not our fave.

**Friend of Figment** · 04-13-2009, 02:02 PM

I think the key is knowing what to expect. The Contemporary is my favorite, but I can have fun anywhere. I plan my trip differently if I stay at a value.

**GoofyMom09** · 04-13-2009, 02:04 PM

I don't like the Swan and Dolphin. I think they look weird and really stand out from the rest of the disney area hotels in a bad way. The rooms inside were nice though.

lockedoutlogic hit the nail on the head. Immediately Saratoga Springs came to mind. If this wasn't the case with most folks, why is that the most listed on the resale market for DVC? The numbers don't lie. Food for thought.

Coronado Springs - it was dirty, stunk (we had asked for a non-smoking room, but it had been used as a smoking room in the recent past), far from everything, etc. We weren't there much, but would do almost anything to not stay there again!

**DisneyGlutton** · 04-13-2009, 02:33 PM

From resort hopping, I would never stay at CBR...the pastels make me pukey and the theming is meh to me. I've enjoyed all the resorts I've stayed at (POP, POFQ, and Poly) but I suppose I picked them b/c I had a good idea that I'd like them.

**DVC2004** · 04-13-2009, 02:55 PM

I don't hate them- but Dolphin was not great at all. Also I don't care for the values. Yes they are a place to sleep but I don't like the lack of parking, transportation system, and food choices. Luckily we are DVC members so we love the 1 BR villas at all the DVC resorts.

**MNNHFLTX** · 04-13-2009, 03:04 PM

None that I actually hate, but a couple that I probably wouldn't choose to stay at again. All Star Sports, because the one time we stayed there we had a room right off the big sports field. A couple of loud and rowdy groups chose to use the field until the wee hours of the morning--not fun....

And the Caribbean Beach Resort too. I'm not a fan of it's layout and having lived in sub-tropical climates for many years, the theming does nothing for me.

Coronado Springs.

**2lilboys** · 04-13-2009, 03:47 PM

Our last visit to POR was not as great as two previous times were stayed there. During our last visit, the resort buses were very crowded and we actually had many problems with mousekeeping during our stay.

(I complained about mousekeeping while were were there and also when we got home...Disney did address the issues). But I did not hate the resort and will probably try it again in the future.

**Minniefan68** · 04-13-2009, 04:09 PM

Double beds are too small!!! My hubby and I are slim individuals and we have a hard time getting comfy in a double bed....can't imagine how some heavy folks manage.

**Hull-onian** · 04-13-2009, 05:58 PM

Carribean Beach. It is my fault because of the location we had.

**BluewaterBrad** · 04-13-2009, 06:45 PM

NOPE!! In Disney!! Hate is not an option!!

**Seasonscraps** · 04-13-2009, 07:29 PM

Of the resorts I stayed in, Caribbean Beach is my least favorite and I have no interest in staying at the All Stars or Pop ever.

**Dopey's Girl** · 04-13-2009, 07:39 PM

I don't hate any of them, but I really was unhappy with AKL. The lobby was great, and I love Boma, but the pool situation was just dumb, and I had the worst customer service I have had either in or out of WDW. Won't ever spend my money there again!

**Belster** · 04-13-2009, 08:32 PM

I have really never been unhappy while I travel to WDW!!! Love it all.
