10 Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge – Jambo House

Jambo House is the central building of Animal Kingdom Lodge and Kidani Village and is one of the best value for money choices of accommodation in the theme park. Although this resort is a little remote, the blog describes one of its best qualities as the fact that it’s “thematically and culturally authentic.”

9 Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

Known by visitors as The Poly, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is a fun celebration of tiki culture. It is one of the most expensive resorts a Walt Disney World, but for good reason. The stunning grounds make visitors feel as if they’ve been transported to a tropical paradise.

8 Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort

The Disney Tourist Blog explains that the Saratoga Springs Resort was constructed with the image of villas in mind, which is evident in its relaxing, no-fuss vibe. Space is no issue at Saratoga Springs since it’s the largest and most spread out of the resorts at Walt Disney World.

7 Disney’s Wilderness Lodge

Built to resemble a real lodge in any US National Park, Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is one of the most unique resorts on the premises. It’s compact enough not to be overwhelming to guests, but still has delicious dining options and gorgeous grounds. Visit the Lodge at Christmas for an even greater ambiance.

As far as price goes, the Wilderness Lodge tends to be at a lower price point than other Deluxe resorts in the area. While the resort isn’t connected to the Magic Kingdom via the monorail loop, guests can take the boat service to the park.

6 Disney’s Contemporary Resort

Disney’s Contemporary Resort is another great option for those who are looking for something more low-key than many of the other themed Disney resorts. It’s A-frame design adds to the chic and minimalist feel, and it happens to be one of the most convenient resorts at Walt Disney World.

The resort doesn’t have a strong theme, but in addition to its high-quality rooms and amenities, it features some amazing eating spots. The Disney Tourist Blog also points out that Coronado Springs is a “Deluxe Resort for the price of a Moderate.”
