Ok, DH (non-Disney lover) ad I are going down for a week right after Thanksgiving to visit DD (cast member at Universal). I got great fares on Southwest ($90 PP each way on points). I was resigned to staying off site at the Marriott Grande Vista, then WDW offered me free dining, hence my dilemma!!
These are my choices:
1. Stay at the Marriott. We would have a 1 bedroom villa with a kitchen and a balcony. They also throw in 3 day WDW passes for DH & I. (DD has an AP) Would need to rent a car or have a car service for to and from airport. We would have to pay for ALL our food but would not be limited to WDW restaurants. Cost for the room would be $1750 plus rental car and food.
2. Stay At Port Orleans French Quarter (Garden View). The room would be much smaller (DD will be on the reservation but will probably not stay EVERY night with us). We probably won't need a rental car because of DME and the availability of DD and her car. We would have 2 day passes and DD would save hers to use when she renews her AP. Probably 75% of our food costs will be covered by eating on property. Our food options would have to be mostly out of park as I promised DH (remember him? the non-disney lover?) this would not be a "DISNEY" trip so only 2 days in a park and probably 3 days away from WDW. Cost for this option $2200
I have both options reserved at present. So what do I do?
