1. Location
While the Contemporary Resort is closer to the gates of Magic Kingdom, the location of the Grand Floridian is also ideal. Guests taking the Resort Loop monorail hop on at the Grand Floridian and the next stop will be the Magic Kingdom! We also love the proximity of the Grand Floridian to another fabulous resort, the Polynesian Village Resort – this close proximity allows our family to walk over to the Polynesian to grab a delicious Dole Whip from the Pineapple Lanai or some scrumptious Tonga Toast to start our morning right before heading to the parks!
