I’m not going to lie; when I saw the hotel in the thumbnail for this update I thought it was some random off-site place at Flamingo Crossing or somewhere else, not Island Tower. Yikes.

Oh the hard choice of finding that elusive perfect hotel for your specific needs… that has left me mostly indecisive.
I believe planning our first family trip to WDW has something to do with the constant ambivalence. Unless it is me.
Can’t decide between Crescent Lake (mostly between Beach Club and Boardwalk) and Grand Floridian.
I remember our only trip to WDW in 2011 – I was smitten with the Boardwalk. It felt magical. But I cannot ignore the fact that we now have a young kid. Difficult decisions !

I enjoy your site very much and value your reviews. I’ve stayed in almost every resort multiple times over 30+ visits, spending a formidable amount of my salary on Disneyworld trips. If I could stay anywhere my all time favorites are Disney’s Contemporary Resort, the Swan Resort, Wilderness Lodge, and Port Orleans Riverside, Yacht and Beach Club, and Coronado Springs.

Hi Tom,

Awesome site – thanks for all the information provided.
One thing I wonder and couldn‘t find an answer to: When staying at a Club Level, do you tip cast members at the lounge?
If so: Individually or one amount for the whole team? At the beginning or at the end of your stay or everyday? Any guidance on the appropriate amount?
We are staying at the Stone Harbour club Lounge in May.
Thanks!

Have you stayed at the Embassy Suites Lake Buena Vista Resort?

Hi Tom,
Art and Animation has been my favorite resort so far. It’s all about imagination at Disney for me.
I wish you would build a resort for singles, maybe a Robinson Caruso style for single people.
I love to visit Disney on my own but the resort cost is a little prohibitive.
Also many families invite me to go with them for my knowledge of Disney, but it is always awkward to share a room.
The singles scene is so active right now for all ages I would think this would a great theme.
Rooms could be stripped but still fun. Single bed, shower only, hooks instead of bureaus, no iron, hairdryer, extra pillows, privacy doors and walls, coffee pots, fridges and use smaller windows.
I have stayed at the campground several time but transporting camping gear on an airplane is difficult and now that I am 69 it is hard to get up off the ground.
Thanks for your listening ear
