## Resource

Picking a Disney resort sounds simple until you're three hours deep in comparison spreadsheets at midnight, trying to justify a Polynesian room rate to yourself. We've all been there. In this episode, we unpack the full resort hierarchy — value, moderate, deluxe, and deluxe villa — and cut through the marketing to talk about what these tiers actually deliver. Yes, the Grand Floridian is stunning. Yes, Pop Century has a giant bowling pin outside your window. Both of those things are true and equally valid depending on who you are and what you want from your trip. We talk about the "resort poor" trap (spending so much on the hotel that you're skimping on the experiences that actually make Disney Disney ), why moderates are having a bit of an identity crisis, and how proximity, transportation access, and dining options should factor into your decision well before aesthetics do. Whether you're a first-timer trying to decode the system or a returning guest wondering if it's finally time to upgrade, this one's for you.
