Coronado Springs Resort
Saratoga Springs Resort

I've stayed at the former and, while it's beautiful outside, everything else about it makes it my least favorite Disney resort (that I've stayed at). I haven't been to the latter, but I've seen it, and am not a fan.

Coronado Springs

Saratoga Springs

Great idea for a Survivor! This crossed my mind, but I'm doing Fast food survivor next instead, so I'm glad someone else did this instead.

I already know what I want the final 2 to be!

It's an hour early, I know, but I'm heading to bed and the deal is pretty much sealed here.

The Springs have been sprung! Coronado Springs Resort and Saratoga Springs Resort are, by unanimous vote, gone!

Round 2 will be up shortly.

Fort Wilderness Cabins - Never been here, but while the concept is pretty cool, I think I'd almost always take an actual hotel over cabins
Yacht Club - Feels way too stuffy inside - a carbon copy of the Beach Club, but with none of the flavor

Fort Wilderness Cabins

Yacht Club

I love the Beach Club and think it should stick around for a while, but the Yacht Club is a different story.

Actually, for hotels in their price range, I would say that they are above average both in quality and in theming.

I have stayed at the All Star Sports for our Senior trip. Despite the fact that some of my 500 classmates (okay not 500...maybe 487) made part of the stay a total nightmare, I still found All Star Sports a delightful hotel (though we stayed in the baseball part, I would've prefered the more fun looking surf shack area, which was reserved for regular guests and families). The wild decorations and easy to get to facilities made it a great place to temporarlily house hard to please teenagers from up north. For this reason, I intend to SAVE THE ALL STAR RESORTS (for now anyway, lol)

My vote (wow, I've never done one of these Survivor things on my own free will):

Fort Wilderness Cabins (sorry Jiminy

, though when I go on vacation to Disney World, I really don't feel like camping there too. Though Aaron is right, as the idea of sleeping in a cabin in the woods sounds different. I might try it some day in the future)

Port Orleans Riverside (I really wanted to stay here last year and we almost did, but my dad was able to sign up for a business seminar for work at the Contemporary's conventions center so we got to stay there at a much more reasonable rate for IMO the lesser of the Deluxe resorts. Anyhow after looking at pictures and reading guest comments, the bayou part of the resort doesn't look much fun. The mansion rooms look great, though. I also read that the shuttle service is one of the worst since it has so many stops.)

The Bayou section isn't as good as the Mansions - not by a long shot - but I still think the rooms are great, and it's themed well. I guess I just love everything about Port Orleans Riverside, as it's definitely my favorite (of the ones I've stayed in, at least). Maybe I shouldn't be saying that, but I've posted it plenty of times here before, so, eh.

Well, you're actually lucky you did, because I was going to target the two Port Orleans resorts next round. I have two alternate targets, though.

Well I love Riverside (*cough cough* Dixie Landings)... but French Quarter is a very different story.
