    Just three??
    OK...
    1)The view of the water and castle and boats and beach and CR and GF..all from my room.
    2)The lounge in the Hawaii Bldg and all the Polynesian treats that go along with that..like the Orange/Guava juice and Turkey skewers with peanut sauce.
    3)Ohana's! Our favorite, favorite meal. In Disney or otherwise.
    and I'm sneaking in a fourth..the Hawaiian music I hear everywhere!!

    Wow, hard to get this down to just three, there's so much but here goes:

    1. Views across the lagoon to MK
    2. Theming of the lush grounds
    3. So many transportation options.

    Also agree with everything about the conceirge building and what everyone else has said but that would be more than three.
