Disney’s POP Century Resort

By Tink *~*~* on June 21st, 2009

For the Monday Meme Trifecta this week, we start with the word “pop” as a prompt, and add a little yellow and a little blue. That’s how we play all three memes at the same time!

Here’s the entrance to Disney’s POP Century resort in Orlando, Florida. This is one of Walt Disney World’s “value” resorts – the least expensive of the Disney resorts. The Pop Century resort is themed in sections that represent the decades of the 20th century. The entire resort is decorated in colorful representations of the popular culture of the times, represented in music, art, film and even the dominant news items of the times. I’ve stayed there twice – once in the 1950s section, and once in the 1970s section. These photos are from the 1970s visit.

Here’s a shot of one of the standard rooms at the Pop Century resort. As you can see, the decor is dominated by color, with blue and yellow both well represented in both the quilts on the beds as well as in the border up near the ceiling.

And look – there’s even a “Hidden Mickey” in the decorative border!

Don’t be put off by the term ‘value’. Pop Century is a nice enough resort to stay at if you are looking for a fun, happy time. Sometimes it’s nice to stay at a moderate or deluxe and sometimes it’s just fine to stay at a Value.

Nicely photographed (as usual) Tink.

It has been years since I’ve been to Disney World. I didn’t know about this resort. Sure looks like fun.

That looks like it might be fun. I do remember the prints from the 70’s so there rendition is spot on. I hope you had a wonderful time. Blessings…Mary

We always stay in the “value” resorts. I think they’re pretty nice, and great when you have a bunch of kids.

You always do a great job with the trifecta. The 70s weren’t a great decade for decoration.
