Resort Bucket List

[slottedpig]

We have stayed at All Star Sports, Dixie Landings, Dolphin, Contemporary, and Yacht Club. We've visited most others for a meal or a walk through with one exception which is the only resort on my bucket list and that is AKL. I love the idea of a savannah view and am thinking Sep of 2013 depending on the discounts available next year.

Otherwise we really loved the Yacht Club and would likely go back there any time we could afford it. And if money is too tight the Dolphin is a fine alternative for us.

[MNNHFLTX]

I've stayed at All Star Sports, Pop Century, Port Orleans, Caribbean Beach, Coronado Springs, Polynesian, Beach Club, Animal Kingdom Lodge, Wilderness Lodge, Boardwalk and Bay Lake Tower. Really, the only resort that I really want to stay at that I haven't is the Contemporary (Magic Kingdom view, of course). I know that Bay Lake Tower is part of the Contemporary (and is really nice), but I just want to stay in the original building too.

We have stayed at the Values and WL and really don't want to stay at the moderates.

As for my bucket list of resorts,
I want to try the Beach Club, the tree houses, and maybe the poly. But I think WL will always feel like home the most.

Deluxe: Contemporary, Polynesian (concierge), Grand Floridian, Wilderness Lodge, Animal Kingdom Lodge

Moderate: All of them

Value: All except AoA

It is so interesting to read everyone's responses. Keep 'em coming!

[Dopey's Girl]

I have stayed at all the values (except AoA, I'm thinking this will be crossed off in October) and mods. WL and AK for deluxe.

I get to cross off BC for Icot15, that was a huge one for me. Before I leave this earth, I want to spend at least 1 night in each of the resorts. Even though some of them aren't my style, I still want to check them all out!

[Janmac]

After we stayed at our first hotel on property we thought we'd want to try them all. After we stayed at our second, we thought we'd change our minds and just try all the deluxes. Over the years we've developed favorite resorts and areas to the point that we definitely aren't trying to stay at many new places.

Our hotels, in order:

Polynesian
Caribbean Beach
Beach Club
Wilderness Lodge
Yacht Club
Fort Wilderness campsite
Wilderness Home
Old Key West/Poly (20 yrs later)
Villas at Wilderness Lodge
Port Orleans Riverside

Bucket list
Beach Club (20 yrs later) (and hopefully Villas)
maybe Shades of Green
Fort Wilderness for at least a month (in the winter).

We would go back to Beach or Yacht Club, OKW, and VWL.

For me over the years I've stayed at:

Value: Sports, Music, Pop
Mod: CBR, CSR, POFQ, Cabins
Deluxe: WL, AKL, CR

I would like to stay at
BWI, AoA, YC/BC, BLT, Poly, GF, and we'll prob stay at SoG at some point as well.

[HackLaSalle]

Bucket list for the resorts isn't really long for me.

#1 is Poly. I just want to stay there and be a part of that whole Hawaiian feel for slightly less than Hawaii.

#2 Bay Lake Tower with a park view. I took the DVC walk through right as they were opening and the whole sit in the tub with something to drink and watch Wishes while the music is pumped into you're room. That's for me.

#3 AKL: Savannah View for obvious reasons.

#4 AoA just cause it's new and I hope to cross that off in September.

My Bucket List
-Grand Floridian w/ a view of MK
-Contemporary w/ a view of MK in December
-Polynesian (concierge) w/ a view of MK
-AKL Savannah view?
-WL

I love the deluxes, and I still am fascinated with staying 'on the monorail'. I've stayed at many of the resorts, but haven't found my home at the happiest place on Earth.

It's my DREAM to stay at the Poly at least once before I die. My runner-up is the Beach Club.

I've stayed at:
All-Star Music & Movies, POP, PO Riverside, PO French Quarter, Coronado Springs, Animal Kingdom Lodge and Old Key West.

[BuffaloJason]

I've done:

Value: All Star Music
Moderate: Coronado Beach, Port Orleans
Deluxe: Wilderness Lodge, Polynesian
...and will be staying at Bay Lake Tower next year

I don't see myself ever doing all of them, but when my kids get a little older (they're 1 and 5 right now) I'd like to get over to the EPCOT resort area and check out Beach Club and the Boardwalk. I'd also really like to eventually do Savannah View at the Animal Kingdom Lodge.

[AvonleaCF]

Stayed at:
- Pop
- Port Orleans - Riverside
- Caribbean Beach
- Wilderness Lodge
- Wilderness Lodge, Villas
- Grand Floridian
- Beach Club

But I'd like to stay at Grand Floridian again, since I was 7 or 8 the last time and don't really remember it.

Also on my bucket list:
- Contemporary (MK view, please!)
- Poly
- Boardwalk
- Treehouse Villas

I don't think I'd ever attempt to do them all, though.
