So for Walt Disney World Vacation, you want something a bit nicer than a value resort, but still want something a little more affordable or with a bit better theming. A moderate resort is for you!
Where the value resort theming is in your face, larger than life, moderates offer a more gentle approach in their four resorts. The Caribbean Beach Resort is 340 square feet, while the other three are all 314 square feet. Each resort has a dorm-sized, complementary refrigerator and a coffee maker. Guest rooms open to the outside; there are no interior hallways. High speed Internet access is available at an extra charge per every 24 hours of use.
Walt Disney World’s Port Orleans French Quarter is theme to appear as though you are visiting New Orleans during Mardi Gras. It is quite and everything is centrally located for an intimate feel. Those who have been to New Orleans’ French Quarter will find this resort falls short of the real thing, but can enjoy the beauty of it regardless.
There is also Walt Disney World’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort (formerly known as Dixie Landings). This resort is meant to transport you more to the Bayou Country of Louisiana than into New Orleans. The grounds are meticulously maintained and do a wonderful job of capturing the feeling of the Mississippi River with the Sassagoula River. There are both plantation-style homes and rustic, backwoods cabins known as Magnolia Bend and the Alligator Bayou respectively. Each will give you the feel of the south you are looking for.
Coronado Springs is not only one of Walt Disney World’s moderate resort, but a convention resort at the same time. Here you can find a full-service business center and two ball rooms. Coronado Springs is large and spread out. The theme is American Southwest. There are casitas that represent the Urban Southwest; this tends to focus on the convention aspects of the resort. There is also the ranchos that are meant to represent pueblo villas in the Rural Southwest. Lastly there is the Cabanas that is focused on the coastal regions of Mexico. All three areas are surrounded by fountains and beautiful gardens and sit around a 15-acre lake.
Walt Disney World's Caribbean Beach Resort is themed after the Caribbean and is considered an Epcot Area Resort. The buildings sectioned off into six villages: Barbados, Martinique, Aruba, Jamaica, Trinidad North, and Trinidad South. Each area has its own pool and beach. Caribbean Beach also has a limited amount of elaborately themed Pirate rooms, including pirate ship beds. If you have small children, especially boys, this is a treat not to be missed!
My opinion is that if you are looking for romance, go for Port Orleans French Quarter. If you are a larger family try Port Orleans Riverside in the Alligator Bayou. For a unique experience, book a pirate room at Caribbean Beach.
