Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

If you’d like to be near the Magic Kingdom park, you’ll probably want to stay at one of the resorts located on the monorail. Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, one of my favorite resorts at Walt Disney World, is among the best choices. It was recently renovated and includes some of my favorite restaurants.

Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter

This resort is a moderate Disney resort located in the Disney Springs area. It’s also a small resort, which differs from most Disney resorts. The resort’s size and atmosphere make it great for some adult vacations. If you are looking for a more low-key, laid-back resort, Port Orleans French Quarter is a great option.

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort is the poshest and most elegant of the Walt Disney World resort hotels. While it is still very welcoming to families with children, it’s one of the best Disney hotels for adults.

Disney’s BoardWalk Inn

Disney’s Boardwalk Inn is one of my favorite areas of Walt Disney World, and the BoardWalk Inn resort is the most convenient. Despite the hustle and bustle of the Boardwalk entertainment district, the resort is relaxing and quiet. Guests of the Boardwalk are closest to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios (although it is a bit of a long walk to Hollywood Studios). Friendship boat service is also available to those theme parks, or you could choose to walk. The Skyliner can be taken from either theme park and take you to several Disney resorts, including Pop Century, Caribbean Beach Resort, and Disney’s Riviera Resort.

Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort

Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort is another moderately priced resort that is great for adults. It’s huge, with many different buildings circling a large lake. In addition, a brand new building, Gran Destino Tower, recently opened with even more guest rooms and amenities.

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort

Disney’s Yacht Club (and its sister resort, Disney’s Beach Club Resort) is my favorite resort location on the property. It’s near the Boardwalk Inn between Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT’s World Showcase. Guests at the Yacht Club can either choose to walk right to either park or can take a Friendship Boat. You must take a bus to visit Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, or the Magic Kingdom. See more information on our website about six of the best Disney hotels, including bonus options.
