Back from our ONE night in VGC and a little bummed
that we could not get our park view room request fullfilled by using our method from LAST time(instead pool view # 5507) BUT never-the-less we SO ENJOYED our room!!
It made such a BIG difference when you get use to the space AND it was our 1st time to stay OFF property for two days in a row & drive back in forth into DLR! Since they added the weekend Annual Passholders Early Entry we took advantage of husband's Platinum Elite Priority Member points & stayed @ the Crowne Plaza to be closer to the parks. Nothing wrong with the place or service just that we MISS our VGC!!
It was kinda strange driving around Harbor Blvd (al la hotel row) & watching all the people walking to DL while knowing we too are stay somewhere else for our Disney fun time! I know we could have just came from home for the morning time but so hard to get my lazy crew up & going from the house so this is the next best thing! I don't regret it cuz we got to ride the one's we love the most 2 times with NO LONG LINES!
I think the lines for DLR guests were longer.
Also would like to add that a ONE night stay (NOT ENOUGH) in the villas is SUCH a TEASE!!! That was our 1st time doing this cuz we usually stay at least 2 or 3 days but I DID make this reservation on kinda short notice! Believe it or not I actually miss the light cooking I sometimes do while in the villas!
Still a SHORT weekender for SURE but a great one at that!!!
