Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – French Quarter

Walt Disney World’s Port Orleans – French Quarter as the name suggests is themed after New Orleans.

Disney’s Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter

The Port Orleans Resort is actually two different, physically separated resorts with hyphenated names that are near to each other. They are Port Orleans Resort – Riverside and Port Orleans Resort – French Quarter. Many years ago (prior to 2001) they were called the Dixie Landings Resort (Riverside) and the Port Orleans Resort (French Quarter).

As the smallest Moderate, French Quarter is much less busy. There are no sections due to the resorts size.

Guest Rooms

Rooms at French Quarter sleep up to 4 people, with 2020 non-discounted room prices starting at $246 including tax.

Disney’s Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter

Pool with Water Slide and Hot Tub – Parade around a Mardi Gras-themed Doubloon Lagoon pool area where King Neptune sits astride a giant sea serpent. Scale “Scales,” as he’s affectionately known, and slide down his tongue for a splash landing.

Guests may also swim in the pools at nearby Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside.

Our Thoughts

MDT Most Favorite

This Disney Resort Hotel is a Military Disney Tips Most Favorite Resort!

We love French Quarter for its smaller size and less people capacity. It is by far the smallest moderate. When staying at a moderate we often choose French Quarter!

One slight drawback is that it is the only Moderate without a table service restaurant, but Riverside and Disney Springs are just a boat ride away. You can even walk to Riverside.
