If WBC is not available for a Disney trip, where would you stay?

[klfrech]

We have a week through RCI to use at the end of March. Looks like WBC is not available. We'd like something with 2 bedrooms, as close to Disney property as possible (hate the idea of traveling up and down I-4). Any suggestions?

Sheraton Vistana Resort - we love this resort and it's very close to Disney.

Needs to be RCI? I'd say Silver Lake or Vistana.

But my 2nd choice would be Windsor Hills.

I'd say Vistana also, but it's possible the Bonnet Creek units haven't been deposited yet for that time period. I wouldn't wait too long to grab a March unit, however, or you might limit your options.

Places we've stayed within the last five years and really liked are the Sheraton Vistana Resort, Orange Lake, Hilton Grand Vacation Club at SeaWorld, and Cypress Point. At Cypress Point you can often trade a two bedroom for a three bedroom as they have so many and the in the two bedroom the one bedroom is quite small with just two twins. Cypress Point is very close to the Downtown Disney entrance.

Keep your powder dry---Wyndham has not yet deposited March '13. In fact, I don't think they've done February yet either, and they tend to deposit one month at a time. February could be any day now, March will probably be another month.

I wouldn't wait too long to grab a March unit, however, or you might limit your options.

If for some reason the March deposit, when it comes, does not work for you, just place an ongoing search with a healthy number of the "usual suspects". Orlando has a ton of inventory and cancellations happen all the time.
