French Quarter is New Orleans-themed and compact, which is its biggest advantage. It has a single bus stop, so you do not wait on internal loops, and you can walk most of the resort in a few minutes.
The rooms were reimagined with a Princess and the Frog theme, and they sleep four. The trade-off is that dining is limited, with mostly a food court and a lounge, though Riverside is a short walk if you want table service. Scat Cat's Club is closed for a refresh with the cafe reopening in December 2026 and the lounge in January 2027.
