Disney's Grand Hotel; for kids and adults alike

I have stayed at this hotel a number of times, and each time I want to stay a little longer. I used to live in Orlando, and actually worked for Disney when I was younger, and this is the hotel I loved to sneak into. I made a promise to myself that when I had a family and made a little money, I would come back to stay in this hotel. The magic happens here. My kids are pretty young, so the fact that we can hop on the monorail from the hotel and the next stop is Magic Kingdom is perfect. Also great is we can get back to the resort quickly for naps, to play in the pool on or on the man made beach, and avoid the hectic side of Disney all together. There is always something going on at the hotel or nearby (like the fireworks you can see from the balcony) and one need not leave this property to be completely comfortable. My wife thinks I must still be on the Mouse’s payroll because I talk about this hotel to anyone who will listen.
