If you love all things New Orleans, The Princess and the Frog, and Mickey beignets, then you might have a stay at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort on your list for your next Disney World trip.
The room
Now, you have two choices at Port Orleans, including the French Quarter, which is designed to remind you of New Orleans. But there’s also the more relaxed Riverside part of the resort, where you’ll feel like you’re living in the bayou. We just recently stayed in Port Orleans — Riverside in Alligator Bayou, and we’re giving you a full room tour so you can see if this might be the room for you!
The holiday season in Disney World is special. It’s not only the parks that get in on the holiday spirit. You’ll find Christmas cheer all throughout Disney Springs, as well as at Disney World hotels.
This amazes us every year!
Not only do Disney World hotels put up beautiful trees in their lobbies, but some hotels also put out elaborate gingerbread displays. We’ve already seen the gingerbread castle up at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, but now we’re heading to Disney’s BoardWalk Inn and Disney’s Beach Club Resort to check out their gingerbread displays, which are now up.
