After traveling to Walt Disney World for a quarter of a century, I\u2019ve been lucky enough to stay at every official resort the sprawling theme park complex has to offer, and have made an unofficial ranking of the resorts from lesser to most favorite taking into <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">consideration location, proximity to the parks, modes of available Disney transportation, dining options, theme, and on-site amenities. Each resort has its pluses and minuses, of course, and just because a resort is at the bottom of our list of properities doesn\u2019t mean it&#8217;s not worth a stay (after all, price is also really important).&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/whats-it-really-like-to-go-glamping-in-the-middle-of-walt-disney-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>RELATED<\/strong>: What it&#8217;s really like to go glamping in the middle of Walt Disney World<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>21. Disney\u2019s All-Star Sports Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-All-Star-Sports-Resort.h22712.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s All-Star Sports Resort<\/a> is themed after sports like football and baseball. Around the resort you\u2019ll find team colors and a fun sport-themed pool. The food court is basic, and the only park it\u2019s close to is Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom. This is a nice resort for families on a budget who are looking for a place to sleep and shower because they will be spending most of their time at the parks.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>20. Disney\u2019s All-Star Music Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-All-Star-Music-Resort.h11224.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s All-Star Music Resort<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one step up because of the family suites at the resort that can accommodate a larger group and have a small kitchenette for making easy meals. The resort is filled with colorful icons like drums and maracas that kids will love (as for parents, no comment). Disney\u2019s All-Star Music Resort is located within the same complex as the other two All-Star Resorts so it is quite far from three of the parks.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>19. Disney\u2019s Old Key West Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Old-Key-West-Resort.h8925.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Old Key West Resort <\/a>is known for its pastel-colored buildings and proximity to Disney Springs via boat. The resort is very spread out and buses to the parks can be full before reaching the back set of rooms, so this isn\u2019t the best spot for families who are looking for ease of getting around. On the other hand, travelers looking for a quiet resort with a nice pool and walkable grounds will enjoy this resort.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>18.

The hotel is themed to different decades, and recently underwent a major room refurbishment bringing new modern amenities to the guest rooms. This resort also has access to the Disney Skyliner, making it easy to get to Epcot or Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>17. Disney\u2019s Port Orleans Resort &#8211; French Quarter<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Port-Orleans-Resort-French-Quarter.h17080.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Port Orleans Resort &#8211; French Quarter<\/a> is modeled after the French Quarter in New Orleans and features wrought iron gates, pretty gardens, and a view of the river that typically takes guests to Disney Springs via boat. The resort is known for its Mickey Mouse-shaped beignets served throughout the day. This hotel does not offer extra transportation to the parks besides the bus, but it\u2019s just a quick ride to Magic Kingdom.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>16. Disney\u2019s All-Star Movies Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-All-Star-Movies-Resort-Package.h13268089.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s All-Star Movies Resort<\/a> is currently the best of the All-Star Resorts because it has newly refurbished rooms that include an all-new bathroom set up and one of the beds is actually a Murphy bed that turns into a table. The resort has basic amenities like a pool and food court, as well as bus transportation to the parks.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>15.

The deluxe resort features rooms that go from basic studios to three-bedroom villas. The resort is very spread out due to a golf course running through the middle of it, but the grounds are beautiful and an equestrian theme is prominent throughout the common areas and rooms.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>14. Disney\u2019s BoardWalk Inn<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-BoardWalk-Villas.h64544.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s BoardWalk Inn<\/a> is within walking distance of both EPCOT and Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios, and offers boat, skyline, and bus transportation to various places around Walt Disney World. The resort is themed after a traditional East Coast boardwalk, and features many shopping and dining locations. It\u2019s also home to a fantastic dueling piano bar that brings in people from around Orlando.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>13. Disney\u2019s Coronado Springs Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the more unique resorts at Walt Disney World is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Coronado-Springs-Resort.h41508.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Coronado Springs Resort<\/a>. The hotel is broken up into two sections: an older part with standard rooms, and the newer Gran Destino Tower, featuring both standard rooms and suites. The resort has a stunning rooftop bar called Dahlia Lounge, where you can grab a drink and watch the sunset over Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios. Coronado Springs is centrally located to most of Walt Disney World, but lacks transportation besides the bus.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>12. Disney\u2019s Art of Animation Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38611 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Art-of-Animation-Resort.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Art-of-Animation-Resort.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Art-of-Animation-Resort-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Art-of-Animation-Resort-768x386.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The highest ranking value resort on the list is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Art-Of-Animation-Resort.h4517659.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Art of Animation Resort<\/a>, where you can step into highly themed rooms and common areas based on movies like <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cars<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Little Mermaid<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Lion King<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The resort has access to the Disney Skyliner, but is priced more like a moderate resort. One major plus to this hotel is the family suites that give bigger groups more room to spread out.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>11. Disney\u2019s Port Orleans Resort &#8211; Riverside<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the two Port Orleans Resorts,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Port-Orleans-Resort-Riverside.h5259.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney&#8217;s Port Orleans Resort &#8211; Riverside<\/a> is the best. The resort is split into a few distinct sections based on the Louisiana bayou, and this is where you\u2019ll find rooms themed after Disney royalty. The resort offers boat transportation to Disney Springs, but lacks secondary modes of transportation to the parks besides the buses.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>10. Disney\u2019s Beach Club Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Beach-Club-Resort.h871864.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Beach Club Resort<\/a> is located around the same lake as Disney\u2019s BoardWalk Inn and Disney\u2019s Yacht Club, making it easy to get to the two other resorts and to both EPCOT and Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios. The resort is known for its sand bottom pool that it shares with Disney\u2019s Yacht Club Resort. One major downfall to this resort is the noise that can happen late at night due to the fireworks at EPCOT, which could be a nuisance if you\u2019re traveling with small kids who go to bed early.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>9. Disney\u2019s Caribbean Beach Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Caribbean-Beach-Resort.h9513.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Caribbean Beach Resort<\/a> is the major hub of the Disney Skyliner, a gondola with five stations that serve various resorts and theme parks. This makes it a desirable spot to stay, though the resort is somewhat spread out and room clusters can be far from the front of the resort where the restaurants are, but that shouldn\u2019t be an issue if you are driving your own car. One thing kids will love at this hotel is the pirate-themed rooms, where they can sleep inside a pirate ship.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>8. Disney\u2019s Fort Wilderness Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve ever wondered what it\u2019s like to go camping or glamping at Walt Disney World, staying at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Fort-Wilderness-Resort-And-Campground.h60257461.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground<\/a> is the spot to be. The resort offers both cabins and campgrounds to stay at, depending on how much you want to \u201crough it.\u201d There are ample outdoor activities like fishing and canoeing, along with pools and nightly outdoor movies. Fort Wilderness is a short boat ride to Magic Kingdom, while the other parks are accessible by bus, which can take a longer time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>7. Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38610 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Animal-Kingdom-Lodge.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Animal-Kingdom-Lodge.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Animal-Kingdom-Lodge-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Animal-Kingdom-Lodge-768x393.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Animal-Kingdom-Lodge.h602436.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom Lodge<\/a> is one of the most uniquely themed hotels at Walt Disney World. The African safari lodge motif is carried throughout the resort and into the guest rooms, where you can sit on your balcony and view animals like giraffes and zebras. Dining at the resort is amply available and has a distinct African flair. The one downside to this resort is that it\u2019s very far away from every park except Animal Kingdom.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Disney\u2019s Polynesian Village Resort&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barely missing the top five is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Polynesian-Village-Resort.h18860.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Polynesian Village Resort<\/a>. The hotel recently underwent a complete refurbishment of guest rooms and its monorail station. Each of the guest rooms not affiliated with Disney Vacation Club now have a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moana<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> theme. The resort has boat and monorail access to Magic Kingdom and all of the other theme parks are accessible by bus. Dining at the resort is plentiful, and you should make a point to go to Tambu Lounge where you can get the famous Back Scratcher cocktail and a slice of Ohana bread pudding.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Disney\u2019s Contemporary Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edging its way into the top five is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Contemporary-Resort.h11031.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Contemporary Resort<\/a>. This is one of Walt Disney World\u2019s original resorts and is known for the monorail cutting right through the middle of the building. The resort is just a five minute walk to the entrance to Magic Kingdom, making it super convenient for families who will spend most of their time at that park. The resort does get very noisy in the main building because of the monorail, but that could be overlooked because of its proximity to Magic Kingdom.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Disney\u2019s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38609 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grand-Floridian.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grand-Floridian.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grand-Floridian-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grand-Floridian-768x386.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Grand-Floridian-Resort-Spa.h19158.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa<\/a> is a Walt Disney World icon. The resort has access to Magic Kingdom via boat, monorail, and a newly opened walking path, while other parks can be accessed via bus. The resort is home to a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beauty and the Beast<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-themed lounge, and a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mary Poppins Returns<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-themed restaurant. One minus is that not everything is housed in the main building, so if your room is in one of the outer garden wings it can be a long walk to the front of the resort.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Disney\u2019s Yacht Club Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Breaking into the top three is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Yacht-Club-Resort.h11250.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Yacht Club Resort<\/a>, which is within walking distance of both EPCOT and Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios. The resort has a nautical theme that is carried into rooms in subtle ways. The hotel pool is shared with Disney\u2019s Beach Club, which can make the pool busy at peak times. One major perk of staying here are the beachfront views of the nightly EPCOT fireworks.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Disney\u2019s Riviera Resort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Orlando-Hotels-Disneys-Riviera-Resort.h38336835.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Disney\u2019s Riviera Resort<\/a> is the latest to open at Walt Disney World. This stunning hotel has nods to Walt Disney\u2019s time vacationing and visiting the European r<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iviera. Each of the rooms are filled with custom artwork featuring beloved Disney characters, and have luxury amenities like a spa tub and rainforest show. The restaurants at the resort have creative menus with items not found at other Disney hotels. The resort does have access to the Disney Skyliner, but can have longer waits for the buses to Magic Kingdom and Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>1.

Rooms at the resort are divided into three sections\u2014the main building, the DVC tower, and the DVC cabins\u2014and dining at the resort is plentiful with lounges and both quick service and table service options.
