Staying at Riverside is just as good as staying at a deluxe resort. Great ambience, and excellent staff. Really like the airy quick service dining area. The evening carriage ride is magical.

Riverside is my favorite because of the royal rooms!!!! My daughter felt like a princess while staying and my son enjoyed the fiber optic headboard!!!

We stayed in Coronado on 2016 and LOVED IT. Granted, we enjoyed the theme and had preferred rooms, which may have helped... this year we're staring at PORS and very glad to hear people do like it. Hope it exceeds our experience at Coronado 👌🏼

I wish Dustin would come back for a guest appearance. He really did a great job.

I LOVE the cabins at Fort Wilderness! I don't know why they weren't in the home away from home category (unless it is, I haven't gotten that far), because it really feels like that. It's quiet, you don't get bothered by other people. And if you have planned out your vacation where you're going to have a good amount of downtime, this is an awesome place to stay. There's so much to do and see.

Coronado Springs needs more love. It's the most underrated resort on property. Absolutely love it there.

I have been to WDW more times then I can count, however O always go back to the Pop Century. My viewpoint is, it's a room with a bed! I'd rather save money on the room and spend the savings on other activities in the park...like drinking my way around the world showcase.

Our family stays at Coronado Springs every July for our daughter's martial arts championshop! Speaking of convention hotels. LOL

I would have to say one thing that stands out to me for the value resorts is the reasons the all star resorts are so low is the distance from the main buildings. after a long day at the parks do you really want to walk that far to get back to your room. look at the maps that explains why music and sports are lower than movies. just a thought.

[glennyasuda]

My problem with Old Key West is that not all buildings have elevators. Difficut to bring luggage up and down three flights of stairs

I loved this show I hope you all will do another 7 in 7 soon!

Wait... The BoardWalk Inn didn't get rated in the Deluxe category? Why is that? 

[maryneal]

Kathy is very correct about the size of Coronado....we stayed there and I hated it.  It took forever to get to everything from our room.  If your room was in the exact right spot, it would be okay but I also prefer the layout at Caribbean.

I'm a bit surprised that Poly managed to make it out on top. I mean, it's my favorite resort on the property, but you never really hear much about it, compared to the Contemporary or Art of Animation. It deserves its spot, despite the renovations going on in the area near the TTC (Another advantage that it has, within walking distance of the transportation hub).

My husband and I usually stay at the value resorts, but have been doing some research on the moderates for our trip in September 2015.  We thought that Port Orleans - French Quarter looked and felt more like an old apartment complex...one of the comments made during this video was that the panel felt it had nice walkways.  That is exactly why we are not impressed with it - feels too much like an apartment building in our opinion.  We were more impressed with Coronado Springs.

I hate that you can't get your own drinks in the food court at Corrinado.

[l.l.LLS]

We loved Dolphin, great location, great pools, great restaurants! Only thing we didn't get was charging privileges from parks and transportation to hotel from airport! I'd stay there again for sure! I'd like to see you all stay there and review it.

[TheInfoMouse]

Going as a couple, we love Coronado Springs.  We've stayed in the Cabanas section and the Ranchos section, and we preferred the Cabanas section due to its location (in between the Main Building and the Dig Site.)  We really enjoy the Dig Site pool area... it's gorgeous, and the water slide and hot tub are great.  Coronado Springs does seem more like a business hotel with the convention center, so I can see why those with kids don't prefer Coronado Springs as their top moderate resort.

THIS video - and others of yours - has solidified in my mind that I am going to Disney (this time) with a new set of eyes.  This trip is with my daughter and son-in-law as she runs the Princess-Half-Marathon.  She has worked very hard to get up to a point of DOING such a race, but I know it is also the last check-off on her "before I start a family" bucket list.

I have suggested we make sure to SEE DISNEY AS ADULTS (knowing the next time will be with young kids).  GO resort-hopping (if just for a walk around a few to see the differences in the grounds and decor).  Take the time to do the things around Disney that are wonderful - but would either be awkward with young children or would cause the young kids to be bored and fidgety.  We are going on a tour. We'll be Dining with a Disney Imagineer.  What other things might you suggest?

My favorite one the last time I went was staying at Disney's Animal Kingdom jumbo house.
