As a mom of 5 and family travel expert, I might have a different opinion on what makes a resort “the best”.
Here are my rankings of Walt Disney World’s monorail resorts.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort. It’s iconic and you can usually snag a great priced room in the garden wing. The Incredibles themed rooms are AWESOME! But the modern feel isn't my vibe and I don't love the dining options.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. This is arguably the “bucket list” resort at Disney. It’s easy to see why, the theming is SO fun and gives relaxing vacation vibes. Plus ,the dining options here are excellent. But this resort is BUSY because everyone wants to visit. And I really don’t want to fight an hour long wait to get a quick service dinner at the resort I’m paying for.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. The flagship resort. She’s a beauty, she's grace. A few things that win me over here… room service, lots of space to run around outside of the resort, and a pool with no blind spots.
How do you rank these resorts?
