Review of Pop Century Resort (Value Resort)

Had high hopes, rooms were new which was a plus but everything else was OMG was free dining worth this? NO!!! The food court is very run down - ice machines didn't work, toasters were broken and the food was worse than a school cafeteria. Wall to wall people, of course. Very noisy. One thing to mention is that Pop Century bus stops are the farthest away at each park - it's #32 out of 34 bus stops at the Magic Kingdom. Last time here for sure.
Pros:
Refurbished rooms were well done, new floors and lots of storage space.Cons:
Overcrowded and run down.Review of Pop Century Resort (Value Resort)

We can't say enough about the pop century resort, for the past 5 visits we stayed there.We love that resort.
Pros:
Very friendly staff, a good variety of food, beautifully upgraded rooms, when hurricane Irma came, the resort was on point helping their guests feel comfortable and safe.Cons:
Only con I can think of is the buses coming back from theme parks seem to take awhile compared to other buses that came more than once while we were waiting for our bus to show up.but we muddled through it.Review of Theme Park Photo Pass

In the summer of 2016 my family visited Disney for the very first time. It was not my first visit but it was husband's and my two son's first time to experience the parks. I purchased the Memory Maker package to take full advantage of the Photo Pass system. We really loved it!! We were able to have professional photographers take great pictures of our family.
Sometimes they added fun and magical characters right into our photos. (But "magical shots" could only be done during the day)
One of the best parts were the pictures that were taken on the rides and the videos that Disney made with some of the attraction pictures. They were so fun! The best part was that I paid one standard price for everything and the pictures were immediately available to me and my family. I used them in our Disney picture album after we returned home and they are some of my most favorite pictures from the whole trip. I would highly recommend this service.
Pros:
Cost affective, Great quality, creative photos, unique shots, attraction pictures (while riding)Cons:
Photographers could not do "magical" shots after dark.Reviewed by klee Review Date: 09/26/2018

The Halloween Party is my favorite time of year to go to Walt Disney World. I love that I can dress in costume and trick-or-treat just like the kids. There is always plenty of time to get lots of great candy and walk on several rides during this event. The parade is the best. We always show up very early (they let you in around 4)and stay until it's over. It's definitely worth the money.
Pros:
Special Photo Spots, lots of great candy, you can relax and have fun without getting the daylights scared out of youCons:
It's usually still hot at this time of year so be careful what you decide to wear as a costumeReview of Sci-Fi Dine-in Theatre Lunch/Dinner

I absolutely love this place! This is a must visit every time we are at Hollywood Studios. The atmosphere is excellent and is a great way to relax and get out of the sun. The milkshakes are the best and you get so much food. We have seen the cartoons and promos they show so much (it hasn't changed in over 20 years) that we have it memorized and look forward to it every visit.
Pros:
Milkshakes are awesome! Atmosphere can't be beat. Make reservations in advance and get a car. Cast Members are great and will take pictures of you sitting in the car.Cons:
I miss when the Cast Members would talk back to the screen sometimes. It was hilarious. I wish they would start doing that again. The tables in the back aren't as good as the cars, but will work if you have to.Review of Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge Concierge

Club Level was absolutely wonderful. We were celebrating our anniversary so we decided to do something special this trip. We were greeted at the door and taken up to the lounge where we met with our concierge cast member. He checked us in and made sure we knew about all the offerings in the lounge and that all our reservations were correct. Shortly after entering our room, we received a nice goodie bag with decorated pins for our anniversary and chocolates. Cast Members around the parks commented several times about the glitter decoration on our pins so this was not the normal look. Our room was very nice and the view was wonderful. We greatly enjoyed our stay and all the free snacks and drinks available in the lounge. The best part was having items we purchased in the parks delivered straight to our room.
Pros:
Free snacks, drinks, desserts, and appetizers in the Club Lounge. Souvenirs were delivered to our room instead of having to pick them up during gift shop hours.Cons:
The turn-down service was nice but at around 9:00pm so it was a bit inconvenient some nights.Review of All Star Movies Resort (Value Resort)

We had an amazing experience where we were sitting by the dock one evening after dinner, and the captain of one of the boats told us that the people who has reserved his cruise had cancelled. He offered it to us FOR FREE!! It was a great place to watch the fireworks and is especially nice when you don't have to pay for it.
Pros:
Great view, comfortable seating.Cons:
Might be expensive if you had to pay.Review of Beach Club Villas (Disney Vacation Club)
