✨ Inside Disney’s Contemporary Resort | Iconic… But Surprisingly Cold

✨ Disney’s Contemporary Resort is one of the most iconic hotels at Walt Disney World… but does it actually feel luxurious? In Episode 8 of my Disney Deluxe Resort Series, I’m staying at Disney’s Contemporary Resort to find out if this legendary monorail hotel still delivers Disney magic — or if it feels more like a chaotic airport terminal than a Deluxe Resort. ✨ From the Garden Wing water view room… to the surprisingly peaceful pools… to the iconic Mary Blair mural and monorail atrium… I’m giving my honest luxury review of one of Disney World’s most debated resorts. I also dine at Steakhouse 71 🍔 and revisit California Grill 🌆 to see whether the Contemporary’s dining lives up to the hype. Is Disney’s Contemporary Resort truly a luxury Disney experience… or is it relying on nostalgia alone? ⭐ Disney Deluxe Resort Series — Episode 8 ⭐ #DisneyWorld #DisneyContemporaryResort #DisneyDeluxeResorts #DisneyLuxuryResorts ✨ TIMECODES ✨ 00:00 Intro 01:05 First Impressions of the Contemporary Lobby 02:28 Garden Wing Water View Room Tour 03:18 Room First Impressions 05:42 Bathroom & Incredibles Theming 07:15 Does the Room Feel Luxurious? 08:12 The “Water View” Reveal 😅 10:08 Garden Wing Patio & Atmosphere 11:30 Transportation / Airport Vibes 12:20 The Atrium & Mary Blair Mural 14:18 Contempo Cafe & Chef Mickey’s 15:30 Why the Contemporary Feels Cold 17:12 Steakhouse 71 Review 🍔 19:22 Best Burger at Disney World? 20:05 Main Pool & Bay Lake Views 21:10 Quiet Pool & Beach Area 22:18 Final Thoughts on the Contemporary 24:02 California Grill Thoughts 25:12 Who This Resort Is Perfect For 26:05 Who Should Skip This Resort 27:28 Final Gold Star Rating ⭐ Enjoy the journey! xoxo, Alex
