Woo hoo! Heading to the Polynesian this weekend for a week of fun with my 3 year old! Your videos and all your online plans and info have been a big help. Thank you so much!

I think the Boardwalk should be on the list

Absolutely agree. Animal kingdom lodge is the best resort at Walt Disney world. Jiko is the best restaurant on Disney property and the amenities are fantastic. Love the top 5 series. They only gonna get better.

Stayed at the AKL in 2008 and l'd say it's my #1also! The kids especially liked the bunk beds we had in our room and waking up to see the giraffe s feeding while we watched from our terrace.

Stayed at all but grand. I’d rank as 1. Poly, 2. Animal 3. Contemporary and 4. Beach Club

The Boardwalk is way better than Beach Club in terms of entertainment and it’s even closer to Epcot and HS

[misdirections]

YASS! The entire video I was hoping AKL was going to be #1. It's my home away from home!

Our plans are decimated....! We are re-thinking staying at the Grand Floridian and going to Animal Kingdom!

Hmmm, that lack of Boardwalk is troubling. It basically has the Beach Club location but minus the epic pool (still has a decent one) but add an entire entertainment district. Plus, the Boardwalk View rooms are the hardest to get on property. To see it not make the list at all is an quite a large oversight. But AKL is excellent, no question.

Staying at a standard room at the Polynesian this summer. What building is closest to food and transportation? I've also requested a top floor. What is the better view? Monorail, pool, marina, garden? Thanks! You're 👍🏻 great

The dorkiness is cringe-worthy, yet awesome. AKL is probably my favorite. Poly is wonderful also though.

I don't really understand why the animal kingdom gets number one only because it has animals in the back which I do understand is very unique and cool what if someone doesn't want to smell all the animals poop on their vacation
