Disney's PORT ORLEANS RIVERSIDE RESORT Information & Questions



It's exciting to see the resorts back open. I booked at Wilderness Lodge for early next year, and I was going to switch, but I'm very hesitant with the current bus situation.

When I stayed at Old Key West a few weeks ago, there were times I waited 45+ minutes for a bus from the parks. And then I had to wait another 10 minutes to get to my bus stop at the resort itself.

I just dont want to deal with the bus situation again, and I don't see it getting better anytime soon. As much as I love POR, boat/monorail transportation is immensely valuable right now.
 
Done - booked for October in POR.... talking about coming home... so excited! We will likely uber/lyft to a nearby MK resort for a meal (come on Ohana!!, maybe Chef Mickey - LOL) and then just walk or monorail over for Boo Bash and uber/lyft to AK (quick trip), taking the bus back to resort.
 


Changed my June booking was $256 at AoA and just got $270ish for Frenchquater. Still a decent chunk of money but a no brainer here.

POR was $300 for this October - a little high, but this one is a splurge 'cause we've always wanted to do an After Hours event (our April 2020 one got canceled and we were waiting for another one - who knew it would be a Halloween one!) and 'cause its similar to the other moderate resorts at the same time (when standard rooms at those were available).
 
Computer won't let me book - says to call. Called exactly at 7am, been on hold for 1 hour 15 minutes. Approximate wait time 2 1/2 hours! Hope my boss doesn't need me for anything this morning. LOL! Praying we get our November dates for POR. :)

Fingers crossed and pixie dust!
 
I’m currently booked at POP but considering switching to Riverside. Then again this may be the only time I ever stay at Pop. Decisions!
Same situation here for December.....it would be $1,000 more to switch. We will probably stay with POP unless they announce a late Fall room discount and there are rooms left. The good thing is, we love the POP.
 
Anyone wanna make a guess on room rates? I am thinking...between 300-350$ and I'm gonna cry
Prices are established a year in advance and published https://www.mousesavers.com/2021-port-orleans-riverside-room-rates-season-dates/

The only variances are discounts from these rack rates. You can find rack rates for the entire year for all the resorts but linked POR specifically above. I searched for my dates and these fall right in line with what disney established. I know Disney can change them at anytime but it's not typical.
