Episode 682 – My Favorite WDW Resort Hotels
On this week’s show, I’m counting down through a list of all 22 of the Disney-owned resort hotels in Walt Disney World as they appear on my list of favorites. Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to stay at just about every one of the resort hotels on Disney property in the “Disney bubble”. I’ve also spent countless hours touring and enjoying many of these resort hotels even when I haven’t been staying at them. They all have something unique to offer Disney guests and they all contain that special Disney magic. However, many of these hotels have captivated me in various different ways, and I’ve accepted the task of putting them in order from my favorite #1 resort to my least favorite (but still pretty awesome) resort. Join me as I go through this list and talk about these things that makes each of these resorts unique and satisfying.
Episode 573 – Favorite Disney Parks and Resorts Firsts
On this week’s episode, we’re talking about our favorite first-time Disney experiences from the theme parks and resorts. I’m joined, this week, by one of my friends and long-time listeners Vern Schermerhorne to talk about our favorite first-time Disney parks and resorts experiences. It’s amazing and, in some ways, bittersweet how, as many times as you walk down Main Street and get a glimpse of the castle, there’s nothing quite like that first time. It’s something that I lament to myself on my numerous trips to Walt Disney World, but it’s also something that will resonate with me for the rest of my life. Together, we’ll share our favorite Disney parks and resorts firsts right here on the All About the Mouse Disney Podcast!
