Challenge idea: 4 of you have the exact same rides/attractions you have to complete but you each have to start in a different park. It would be a “who can do it the fastest” but it would be more interesting to see what park is actually the best to start in prior to park hopping.
Emma, thank you. You are the first person to talk about the floors. Hard floors are a problem for my bad back. As silly as it sounds, I really appreciate you concentrating on the floors. Even in the parks, I hunt for carpeting... in case you guys want to point that out more. It would be appreciated.
Great room tour, Emma. Loved seeing the husband cam! We haven’t stayed at GF as we prefer Contemporary for the shorter walk to Magic Kingdom and being in the main tower making everything so convenient.
❤To the Bride and Groom and wedding party❤ Congratulations on the wedding you looked beautiful in your dresses and handsome in your tuxes!! Good luck! 🎉🎉
Emma, awesome resort tour! Quincy would be proud. As a DVC member, I appreciate the points breakdown. Also, Mac and cheese for the win. Love the Marry Poppins room decor.
My favorite hotel. We've stayed frequently. As adults only travelers we enjoy the quite, the relaxed atmosphere and the access to all the restaurants both in hotel and in the Contemporary and Polynesian via monorail. Just wish it wasn't so expensive. The new decor is gorgeous. I just love it! Thanks so much for the tour.
I stayed in the Big Pine Key building in January. The rooms are beautiful and the courtyard pool is right outside the building. We also rented a pontoon boat and explored Seven Seas Lagoon and Bay Lake.
In your room reviews, I think it would be a good idea to note proper protocol is to leave a tip for the room attendants either every day (which I prefer to do) or at the very last day of your stay. The typical tip is 10% to 20% of the daily room rate.
I think it is beautiful and Mary Poppins is my favorite. It is perfect for MK people. I prefer the chill vibes of the Polynesian or the location of yacht/beach. Sadly you will likely find me at the Swan/Dolphin or Coronado Springs. 😂😂😂😂
My mom, sister and I just got back from our girls trip this past weekend and we stayed in a theme park view DVC room and it was totally worth the extra to stay here once! The resort was beautiful and we loved seeing the fireworks each night from our room!! ❤
We were able to stay here for a week in April of 21 when they had a really good discount because of COVID. It was a spectacular trip and probably a 1 time experience for us. I would have loved for the refurb. to have been done then as I love Mary Poppins. We were actually in the Big Pine Key building and had a lake view looking towards the Poly. It was just great and I'm so thankful for it.
Worth noting that the power sockets in the bathroom are multi-country. Looks like they'll support UK & EU etc. A really nice and very useful touch. We'll be there in a few months and looking forward to being back
Victoria and Albert’s is amazing ( I haven’t been since Covid ) but I have done the 3 dining areas ( recommend them all !) This is the restaurant where I will try anything they make. I’m not a seafood person and the seafood here is so unbelievably delicious ! Definitely super expensive but I truly believe it’s worth it at least once !
I stayed at GF a thousand years ago when my son was probably pre-teen. Back then the Epcot resorts had not been built yet so choices were limited. We loved it. I also wish they would bring the tea room back, it was a must do every trip for me. And, yes, my son and I did eat at V&As once a few years ago, in the before times. We loved it. Worth it? That's subjective. We always try to do one high ticket thing each trip and that was it for that trip. I think for the two of us it was around $700, which included both of us getting a wine flight. It would be a lot more than that now.
I think I saw you while filming this video! We were staying in Boca Chica from Feb 10 to 20th. I almost called out "Emma!" but you were kind of far away and I was in a hurry myself. I was leaving Boca Chica, on my way to the main building and saw a girl that looked and sounded just like you talking into a phone and walking FAST!
Amazing and thorough review! Totally will stay here on upcoming summer trip. One question: are all resort rooms renovated? DVC resort studios and non-DVC studios?
I’m biased when it comes to staying at The Grand Floridian. First time there was in 1995. After that experience where else would you want to stay? Some things have changed since then and they are disappointing. Orchestra is no longer there, having someone waiting outside to check you in when staying in a club level room. Still I will only stay there or the Villas of the Grand Floridian.
I find it funny how you young kids have no idea what the magnified mirror purpose is. I use to think, why would you want to see yourself magnified. Well when you get old you can't see close up anymore and you can't wear glasses to put on your makeup, so the magnified mirror makes it so you can see yourself to put on your makeup. haha
$1500/night rooms is a reason to hate the direction Disney is headed. I am not going to watch a video about stuff they don't want us working class folks to enjoy. Disney parks are about welcoming everyone, but the hotels are just for rich folks and that's a shame.

I like that idea, 2 rides, a show and a character meet per park, and maybe a snack in 2.
@@pwnmasteh - yess! That would be perfect!
This will be fun to do it with trading pin addition

I would love to see more about handicapped rooms, rides, restrooms, etc. Please?? I've asked for this before.

Perfect marks on the dance in front of the mirror!!
The view from the balcony is incredible

Wow absolutely wonderful tour. Do you remember your room number? Loved that view! Thank you so very much!
This is super timely! We're staying at GF Villas for the first time this summer for our anniversary. I'm super excited! Thanks for the video Emma!
Emma thank you for showing the art in the room and the floors. I liked the rooms.

Emma, your styling is so elegant.
I will never get tired of watching the ladies play basketball. 😁

I like the room decor. It’s actually the same color scheme as my house! The blue colors are the same or similar to my living room and bedroom!

Excellent reporting Emma 👍👍👍
You are adorable!! I love the ears! God bless you! ❤

Great review. BTW, you look fabulous in glasses!
Why did it take me so long to find you? My bad. Love your videos!
I'm so excited for my stay in January 2025! So stoked!
Your cadence is perfect. No clue how people are such eloquent speakers on camera
Please review 1900 when it reopens!

Totally worth it! Watch for the Disney Visa discounts.
Amazing and thorough review! Totally will stay here on upcoming summer trip. One question: are all resort rooms renovated? DVC resort studios and non-DVC studios?
You can rent DVC points from several legit agencies (we prefer David's) and save a good chunk of money.
Husband Cam better be a recurring thing now 😆
how about a tour of the wedding chapple?
DVC is only worth it in the larger rooms with full kitchen and laundry. Makes the added expense worth it especially with kids
Can you make a video about renting dvc points
Emma Where did you get the cute necklace?
Family and I stay here 2-3 times a year. It's our home away from home.
If I'm staying at All-Star, Can I still use the SPA at the GF?

Time stamp videos!!!
Very pretty but no way I would pay that for a room.

Drink every time she says "actually".
Don't do that... You'll die!
Nope. Not worth it for me.
@@gloriawebster265 I'll never pay that much for a Disney hotel room.
