I love your resort tours because they actually show you everything you need to know! I feel like I get a real feel for what the resort is like. I also really like how the video is tagged so it is easy to locate and re-watch a specific piece of the tour. Thank you!
Our home resort and this video made me miss it. So much time spent at the quiet pool last September during our week there. Just looking out at the lake and Skyliner is the most relaxing thing in the world! Cant wait to go back
So, I like this resort. This is a nice weekend getaway resort. I wouldn't stay here for a whole week or so. Nice anniversary celebration resort ya know. Ride the skyliner right over to Epcot. I can dig it.
Loved the video. We met you that weekend by the elevators at the East Wing!! We did order the Remy art from the kiosk at La Boutique !! and also enjoyed Topolinos for dinner and the quick service restaurant! We love the Riveria our home resort!!!!
The Riviera resort tour was exceptional. Probably the best review by any one on U tube. Can you possibly do a review of the Grand Floridian. That's where we will be staying when we hopefully go on our vacation in 2022.
Thanks so much for the awesome resort tour! Those soft drink dispensers at the quick service restaurant...do you know if Riviera is the only resort with that kind or do other resorts have those now?
Okay, I know you posted this to inform us but I think you recorded it on the same day we were there touring the DVC rooms (Valentine’s day or the day after?) so now I’m not paying attention to you at all and only looking for me and my husband in the background. 🤣🤣
Awesome video guys. Planning a trip back to WDW after a long while....considering this hotel. I was thinking how great quality of video this was and was wondering was equipment you were using and then saw in a reflection that youre using an iPhone. I take video at the max 4k at 60fps, but I tend to get problems with the quality when I try to take them off of iCloud (I use up a lot of storage space on the phone if I use the "keep originals" setting. Do you keep this videos as originals on your phone, or do you back them up on iCloud and do you have quality issues if you do that?
We do use an iPhone for almost all our filming. We have it back up to iCloud, and even though we normally import to the computer before it's offloaded from our phones, we have had to download from iCloud at times. We've not had any issues with quality coming from iCloud and everything comes back in its full resolution. Maybe the problem is in the way that you're transferring them to your computer? We usually use airdrop or a direct import into Final Cut Pro X.
Love the tour. Favorite part was the art and the fact you can order it. I'm definitely going to try to go there on our next trip. I would love to order the Mickey with firefighter art for my husband.
great video overview of the resort (as always!!!). You mentioned that the eventi room is temporarily the community hall. Why only temporarily. Is it supposed to be somewhere else?
Magic Kingdom is a couple miles away. Walt Disney World Resort encompasses over 40 square miles, so not every park is close to every resort. ☺️ www.google.com/maps/dir/Disney's+Riviera+Resort,+1080+Esplanade+Ave,+Lake+Buena+Vista,+FL+32836/Magic+Kingdom+Park,+Lake+Buena+Vista,+FL/@28.3835575,-81.5590753,12z/data=!4m8!4m7!1m2!1m1!1s0x88dd7f4dc585bb2f:0xb307732b9ad696e9!1m2!1m1!1s0x88dd7e536aa54b81:0x66b8bcd58da841a!3e0
So if you are a DVC member you can only use points that you bought direct from Disney not resale points to stay here, is that correct? It is really nice looking!!😍
There's a complicated answer to that. If you purchased a resale contract before January 19, 2019, then the points can be used at Riviera just like direct points. If they were purchased after that date, they can only be used at the "original 14" resorts, which doesn't include Riviera.
Yes we would. You never know how long the line will be for the Skyliner, so you could walk right on or you could wait 10-15 minutes. Plus the line for temperature screening from the Skyliner is always really long in the morning at the park.
I love your resort tours because they actually show you everything you need to know! I feel like I get a real feel for what the resort is like. I also really like how the video is tagged so it is easy to locate and re-watch a specific piece of the tour. Thank you!
We’re so glad 💗
Those murals are lovely.
I love the timestamp menu.
Yes I've been waiting for this video!

It’s a beautiful location and view 💖
Yay! We’re staying here for our first trip! Thanks for this 🤩
You’re welcome! Have a great trip!
We came back from that hotel and it was so much fun and it a cool restort
Great video!!!
Thank you!
Oh wow that lobby is actually very underwelming. Who would have guessed lol
...and their fitness center!! It's still a nice lookin' hotel though.
So, I like this resort. This is a nice weekend getaway resort. I wouldn't stay here for a whole week or so. Nice anniversary celebration resort ya know. Ride the skyliner right over to Epcot. I can dig it.
Great information. Looks like a lovely place to stay.
There are alot of places to eat here. Something to keep in mind when I go in December. Love the tour!
Yes! So many great options 😃

That’s so exciting! The Remy art is so cute 😍

Thank you 💗
Thank you for this, this is beyond helpful for when the time comes! 😊
That makes us so happy to hear! 💖
Great video. I didn’t realize Riviera Resort guests had the ability to check availability of laundry remotely.
It’s really convenient so you can come back when it’s done 😊
Here With The Ears makes does BEST tours!
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you guys so much I’ve been waiting I’m going to be going there on July 12
Have a wonderful trip! 😊
@@HereWithTheEars thanks!
LOVE your reviews!!
Very cool. Stay here soon. What camera are you using to record the video? Very stable and clear
Thanks! Hope you have a great trip! 😊 We use a gimbal to hold our iPhone.
Thanks so much for the awesome resort tour! Those soft drink dispensers at the quick service restaurant...do you know if Riviera is the only resort with that kind or do other resorts have those now?
Great video! Can you tell me where you got that adorable shirt? I would love to get one for the hubby. Thank you!
They sold it when Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railroad opened. 😊
Okay, I know you posted this to inform us but I think you recorded it on the same day we were there touring the DVC rooms (Valentine’s day or the day after?) so now I’m not paying attention to you at all and only looking for me and my husband in the background. 🤣🤣
This was the morning of Valentine's Day! Maybe you made it in somewhere! 😂

Awww...that’s awesome 💖
great video overview of the resort (as always!!!). You mentioned that the eventi room is temporarily the community hall. Why only temporarily. Is it supposed to be somewhere else?
Riviera doesn’t normally have a community hall (we don’t know why). So this is the temporary placement until things are more normal.
Can y’all do a tour of AKL Jambo and Kidani next?
We have those rooms booked for a tour at the end of the month, so the tours will probably be released middle of April 😊
I`m confused where is Disney world with Space mountain ect?
Magic Kingdom is a couple miles away. Walt Disney World Resort encompasses over 40 square miles, so not every park is close to every resort. ☺️ www.google.com/maps/dir/Disney's+Riviera+Resort,+1080+Esplanade+Ave,+Lake+Buena+Vista,+FL+32836/Magic+Kingdom+Park,+Lake+Buena+Vista,+FL/@28.3835575,-81.5590753,12z/data=!4m8!4m7!1m2!1m1!1s0x88dd7f4dc585bb2f:0xb307732b9ad696e9!1m2!1m1!1s0x88dd7e536aa54b81:0x66b8bcd58da841a!3e0

if you are hoping to rope drop at Hollywood Studios would you recommend taking an uber to the park rather than the skyliner?
Yes we would. You never know how long the line will be for the Skyliner, so you could walk right on or you could wait 10-15 minutes. Plus the line for temperature screening from the Skyliner is always really long in the morning at the park.
Pools suck, limited seating poor use of space.
As much as I love everything about the resort, you're absolutely right. It seems as though the pools were only an after thought.
Wow $33 a day for valet parking...highway robbery.
Valet parking is a completely optional service. Self-parking is $25/day, and some people choose to pay the $8 premium for valet service.
Those people are sitting so close to each other eating with no masks on😖
Fuck your masks.
