If you had to choose your favorite resort, attraction and TS dinner option - what would it be?

For me...

Poly - Never actually stayed here, but I have always wanted to.

Haunted Mansion - Could ride this over and over.

O'Hana - Always been a must do for us.

Resort - Caribbean Beach Resort - Our first onsite stay was at CBR in 1989, followed by many onsite stays ever since. We've stayed at several resorts over the years, but CBR takes the prize with over 12 stays. It's our Disney home away from home.

TS - 50s Prime Time - Our first dinner here was in 1989. We enjoyed it so much this TS has been a must-do on every trip.

Attraction - tie :blush: - WEDway PeopleMover and Peter Pan's Flight - At the top of the favorites list for more than 35 years. These attractions are musts for multiple times on each trip.

The Polynesian for me too.

The Rose and Crown, I guess, although Tokyo Dining is right up there too.

This one is tough. I would have to say Expedition Everest is a must for me, although there are other attractions that are more nostalgic favorites.

1. The Polynesian for sure. Always has been my favorite. Hopefully that will remain after all the construction & changes.

2. This is such a toss up - 'Ohana & Narcoosses are always must do's. Since you specifically said TS & not just an ADR, I didn't include the Hoop Dee Doo - we love love love the show & never miss a chance to see it.

3. Wow another hard one. I would have to say Winnie the Pooh (actually missed our flight due to one last ride on this one trip). Splash Mountain is another must do multiple times for us too.

Surprised you didn't have a 4th question - favorite snack that you can't leave without - mickey bars & dole whips. We eat so many of each you would think we would turn into one by now.

Great questions...glad to read everyone's favorites.

oooo this is fun! hmmmm

wilderness lodge- stayed here only once and never wanted to leave. love artist point and the ambiance of this resort. Im looking forward to the day that I can fit it in my budget again!

ohana- I can not go to disney without getting ohanas! their bread pudding is my favorite dessert in the whole world!

pirates of the caribbean- for the nostalgic factor. I love this ride! this is one ride that if it were to be closed while I was booked for a vacation, I would consider pushing the vacation back. I cant imagine a trip without PotC!

Resort- POFQ: I've stayed at a lot of different resorts, only repeating once or twice but POFQ is just so small and quaint and adorable.

TS- Yachtsman Steakhouse: Probably the best mashed potatoes I've ever had.

Ride- BTMR: I could just ride this over and over and over again.

#1.) Of the places we've already stayed....... The Contemporary. But the Animal Kingdom Lodge is likely going to bump that off of the #1 list this summer.

#2) Boma ...followed closely by Tokyo Dining.

#3.) Hum....... very difficult one to answer. Might be "Star Tours". But (believe it or not) "Small World" might fit in there simply because you cannot help but be smiling and humming when you get in there for 30 seconds. It just makes you 'happy'. BUT .... you also can't shake the darn tune for MONTHS after being at Disney.

best,

...............john

Good point on the snacks. I love a good old fashioned root beer float ( or the Carrot Cake cookie from the Writers Stop ) the bomb!

This IS fun!!!!! Great post, Scallywag.

My resort would be Boardwalk. I love the proximity to everything.

My TS would be Hoop Dee Doo Review ( if that counts.) if not, then 50s Primetime Cafe.

My attraction would be Haunted Mansion.

Very fun!

Resort would be Coronado Springs. We love the theming and landscaping, as well as that it seems quieter noise wise. But Port Orleans Riverside would be a very close second! Yehaa Bob is one of the best entertainers we've ever seen!

Ride is the Haunted Mansion! I am the HM Girl!!!

Table service restaurant is 50s Prime Time. Their fried chicken, chocolate malts and sundaes are the best!! I can't wait to go back!

Resort - Port Orleans Riverside. I thought it was Pop Century for a long time, but I just had to go visit Port Orleans during my trip last week.

Attraction - Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Dinner - Hmmm, I can't really pinpoint a favorite TS dinner. My favorite TS would be breakfast at Crystal Palace. My favorite dinner would be burgers at Pecos Bills.

Resort: Yacht Club---Stormalong Bay!

TS: Le Cellier----We ate there once on the "old" Dining Plan---steaks, breadsticks...it was all wonderful.

Ride: Kali River Rapids----We usually go in the summer time, so don't mind getting wet. Last time, our family filled a boat all by ourselves, and we had a great time!

I agree, there is nothing that compares to the Fort Wilderness experience that I had growing up.

Haunted Mansion - nothing else comes close!

And for a TS, the Hoop Dee Doo ...

Great question!

Resort - Yacht Club (used to be Grand Flo, but with the addition of DVC, it's just gotten too insane over there anymore)

TS - Victoria and Albert's (we don't dine here every trip... Narcoossee's is a must-do every trip, but V&A is still my favorite).

Attraction - Haunted Mansion (a classic I never get tired of)

Wilderness Lodge...this is what got us started on our tour of the real National Parks in our country.

The Carrot Cake Cookie is my all time favorite

But if I answer this tomorrow my answers might change......Too many fun places to pick from!

Wilderness Lodge. Only deluxe we have stayed at. But would love to try the Grand Floridian or Animal Kingdom.

Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue

Toss up between Rock n Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror.

Resort would have to be Port Orleans French Quarter

TS is tougher - but I think I'll go with 50s Diner

Attraction is even tougher. Would be Thunder Mountain Railroad, I think.
