In today's video we visit Walt Disney World's POP Century Resort. Pop Century is a value resort themed to different decades ranging from the 1950s all the way up to the 1990s. We walk around the grounds and show off all of the decorations and theming. We also show off all of the themed pools as well as the front lobby, gift shop, and cafeteria. Pop Century also has one of the largest arcades I've seen since I started going to the resorts to show them off. Of the two low cost Disney hotels we have looked at so far this one is my favorite. Tune in tomorrow for an new video!

We usually always stay at Pop when we go. Little tip. If you're waiting for the bus and the art of animation bus shows up first...GET ON IT!!! it's a short walk from the bus stop at art to Pop. And may even save you some time!!

If I were staying at Pop Century I'd probably go to the food court at AoA. From what I've heard they're pretty much polar opposites of each other.

In 2010, i stayed at the POP. I didnt get my room location request but i had no complaints as i was placed on the top floor of the 50's facing Hourglass lake, midway. I discovered that you can watch Illumations from there!!!

I really love this hotel. My family wasn't the wealthiest, but we could still afford to take 2-3 day vacations to Disney World every once in a while (we lived in Florida). No parent wants to compromise their child's experience because of money, and that's what this hotel is perfect for. Colorful, well themed, and filled with activities so I felt I was getting the full experience. As an adult I still get excited seeing the statues of Disney characters scattered throughout the resort. One day, even if I can afford the nicer hotels, I will be sure to give my children a Pop Century experience.

knokout1 I have stayed at all levels. I’ve stayed club level at the Polynesian and have stayed in value resorts. I can afford to stay in Deluxes but I don’t want to pay $400+ dollars a night for a room that would be mediocre in the real world. So, my next trip we are staying at Pop Century. We have fun no matter where we stay.

Previously read where the area that became AoA, was intended to become the 1900's through the 1940's but due to the econ impact of 9/11, the plan was suspended. Later, the property was re imagined as AoA.

Really enjoyed this. Pop Century is where we stay when we travel to Disney World. We are in Washington State so Florida is quite a distance. We like inexpensive resorts as we spend very little time at our room. When we travel to Disney we do Disney all day and into the night. There is a lot to fit into a very limited time and paying for a fancy room we will spend little time in makes little sense. That said, we stayed at the 60's on the back by the lake. It was fantastic. Quiet. We could swim in the beautiful pool and catch a bus to where ever we wanted every hour on the hour. The food may seem limited, but we spent a lot of time eating at the parks so we found it was more than sufficient. For us, it is the perfect place to be.

The first (and currently only time) I've been to Disney World, we stayed there and we were in the 80's section. I honestly loved it. It may have only been for a few days since it was our schools senior trip, but I loved it. Loved the food court, loved the arcade (this was also when the arcade allowed a prize area), loved the decorations, and just really enjoyed my time there. If/When I go back, I will probably stay there again, not only because it is one of the more cheaper resorts, but because I enjoyed it. Yeah some things could be better, but that's how a lot of things are in the world, lol. I would recommend this resort to pretty much anyone!.

We stayed there a week the first summer it was opened. It is more spread out than All Stars Resorts. I remember it being terribly hot waiting out in the sun at the bus stop. I hope they have added an awning on the building like All Stars to wait under. The rooms are a little smaller than All Stars. It was nice, but not my favorite. Good to see that Disney has enclosed all the pools with fences. Not everyone watches their small children when they leave the main building and head for their room. Over the years, I have witnessed several small child make a beeline for the pool and almost fall in. Plus it helps keep out visitors that are not staying at that resort from pool hopping. Love your vlogs!

I went to pop back in June, loved it! It was just as quiet back then too in the summer fun. Pop is my favorite value priced resort (I say value price because although art of animation is considered value, it’s priced as a moderate... ☹️) but pop is awesome and the staff is 100% Disney staff, friendly and fun. And literally there is ALWAYS something to do there. I told my daughters father that one time I would like to go to pop and just stay there for my whole visit without going to Disney itself because the resort has that much to do 😁

@crystalsunshine 6 жыл бұрын

We've stayed at this one many times. Not only is it usually the cheapest to stay at, but IMO, it's the best because of the nostalgia. Tim is right about the 50's being quiet. One of our stays was facing that lake and it's amazingly quiet. The pool areas are usually pretty bright and loud (especially around spring break!). Something we noticed at Pop was the bunnies. There are so many wild bunnies roaming the grounds, it's adorable!

We stayed at Pop Century for the first time ever back at the end of May. At the time, we had gotten a discount price because they were under construction. We were able to get one of the newly refurbished rooms, and it was beautiful. In the morning before we had to leave, we took a walk around and I would definitely stay there again. Between the beautiful new rooms, the very nice Resort, the easy walk to Art of Animation and they're great food court, and coming soon the gondola system? This is going to be our Resort.!
