"A "New Orleans theme radiates through" this "wonderful", "relaxing" "hidden gem" of a resort offering "lovely" grounds with "cobblestone streets"."
Fodor's "Ornate Big Easy–style row houses with wrought iron–clad balconies cluster around magnolia-shaded squares in this relatively quiet resort, which appeals to couples more than families." Full review
Gayot "Enjoy some Southern charm at Disney’s Port Orleans, a pleasant, moderate resort that captures the color and quaintness of the famed French Quarter."
Frommer's "The main pool at Riverside is less elaborate than French Quarter’s, although it has five pools to French Quarter’s one." Full review
Lonely Planet "Lush gardens and a jubilant Mardi Gras motif blend in an effort to create a Louisiana feel to these sister resorts." Full review

"The crowded, 853-room Polynesian remains one of Disney's most popular Deluxe-category resorts for families." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Lush tropical gardens and waterfalls, a white sand beach, and a lagoon swimming pool with a steaming volcano and torch-lit walkways create the illusion of an island paradise."
Travel + Leisure "Commanding an enviable position on the Seven Seas Lagoon, and a short boat ride from the Magic Kingdom’s front gates, the South Seas–inflected Polynesian is a circa-1971 Disney original." Full review
Fodor's "You may not think you're in Fiji, but families with kids can have fun pretending in this South Pacific-themed resort directly across the lagoon from the Magic Kingdom." Full review
Gayot "An impressive rainforest setting and exotica ambience---even to discerning Tikiphiles."
The Telegraph8.0
"Facilities and amenities that make its South Seas style even more appealing, from the Tiki God in the lobby to the grand bungalows built over Seven Seas Lagoon." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "The Polynesian has been around since 1971; its great location and fun atmosphere never get old, even as newer choices crop up around it." Full review
Time Out "Want to see what $2,000 a night will get you at a Disney property? Set your search to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort—specifically, the private, eight-person, over-the-water Bungalow...." Full review
Frommer's "The longhouse-style thatched-roof complex remains one of the most transporting of the Disney resorts...a notch above for families as the monorail is steps away and rooms are on the big side" Full review
Lonely Planet "With faux-bamboo decor, a jungle motif in the lobby, and coconut-shell cups and shell necklaces in the store, you just may think you're in the South Pacific." Full review
