Frommer's Review
Port Orleans has the best location, landscaping, and perhaps the coziest atmosphere of the resorts in this class (and was renovated from top to bottom in recent years, so it's in great condition, too). This southern-style property is really a combination of two distinct resorts; the French Quarter and Riverside. The French Quarter offers magnolia trees, wrought iron railings, cobblestone streets, and an idealistic vision of New Orleans's famous French Quarter. Riverside transports you back to Louisiana's Mississippi River towns, its rooms housed in buildings resembling grand plantation homes and the "rustic" wooden shacks of the bayou. Overall, this resort offers some romantic spots and is relatively quiet, making it popular with couples. The pools, Tom Sawyer-style playgrounds, and array of activities (including a pirate-themed cruise that departs right from the resort) make it a favorite for families as well. The Doubloon Lagoon pool in the French Quarter is a family favorite, with a water slide that curves out of a Sea Serpent's mouth before entering the pool. The rooms and bathrooms (equivalent to all rooms at Disney's moderate resorts) are somewhat of a tight fit for four, though the Alligator Bayou rooms have a trundle bed that allows for an extra child, and the vanity areas have privacy curtains. Port Orleans is just east of Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios.
