Very nice and clean! Truly captures the essence of New Orleans. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
Price range and location. |
Room # and Location Description:
|
We were in room 5334 (building 5, floor, room 34). This was close
to the pool, but on the other side of the building. We were close
to everything at the resort, but in a very quiet location. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
As stated above, we were close to the pool, food court, laundry
facility, etc. Far to walk to late at night after a long day of walking
- but any room would be at that point! |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
Very efficient and pleasurable. We were luckily selected as the
resort's Millennium Family of the Week, which offered us some freebies
that turned out to be quite usable. These freebies included refillable
mugs for the food court, Disney pins with our names printed on them,
beach towels, a stuffed Goofy for my daughter (they called us the
night before to ask who her favorite character was), and a choice
of a one-hour rental of a pontoon boat, canopy boat, or bicycles.
We chose the pontoon boat and had a ball on it! |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
Transportation is great. One drawback is that about 75 percent of
our pickups went on to the Dixie Landings resort stops before going
to the parks. This probably added a total of between 5 and 10 minutes.
Returning from the parks, however, we were dropped off first. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
Food court is clean and efficient. Didn't really spend much time
here. No longer a restaurant at the Port Orleans. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
Pool is awesome! Heated, clean, and fun. |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
Try to stay in a building close to all amenities. |
