1. I LOVE the clown slide. 2. I wish the pools would stay open later - at least until midnight. Idk how Disney hasnt figured out that most families want to use the pools but are in the parks morning till night and get back around 10pm on average. For a lot of families night time is the only time they have to enjoy the pool. Especially if it's a short trip.

I personally prefer the pool at Port Orleans Riverside rather than french quarter as although french quarter pool is beautiful the slide is better at riverside and it is on its own island out of the way of the busy main building (also lots of natural shade from the trees )

Beach Club is always crowded though and hard to find an open chair. It's also difficult to supervise young ones especially if you have more than one because you have to leave the pool area with them to take them to cross the boardwalk to the slide entrance then run back over into the pool area to watch them come down. You really need two adults, there's no relaxing by the pool.

On our last family vacation to Disney World we were sprinkled with pixie dust and upgraded from All Star Movies to Yacht Club! We spent an entire morning enjoying the pool and was such a great experience for our kids. Our oldest went down the slide around 50 times while our youngest hangout in the kiddie pool going down the smaller slide or playing in the sand in the main pool. Def. an experience I will remember forever and hoping my kids do to as well.

I of course said agreed and when we arrived at MCO to the magical express we went straight to the Yacht Club and our room was waiting for us.

My new favorite is Animal Kingdom Lodge. I have stayed at there and at Kidani Village. I actually prefer the rooms at Kidani because the rooms were recently renovated and they are a great size for a couple. The big plus for me are the number of plugs and USB ports in the room. It is the only room where we did not need a multi plug extension cord in order to charge all our devices. But we love to eat breakfast at Jambo House in the villas, so we usually stay there in order to walk to breakfast without going outside.
