We were originally booked in a Little Mermaid room at AoA. This is supposed to be a "not too expensive" trip, but we did decide to splurge on the Deluxe Dining Plan.
Well, we just saw January discounts, and we can move to an Alligator Bayou room at Port Orleans Riverside and actually save a few bucks. Great! We now have a reservation there.
But now I'm wondering if it would be worth downgrading our dining plan to regular DDP (and cutting out a BUNCH of character meals) , and paying a bit more extra ($300-$400) to stay at Beach Club.
Keeping in mind we are going in early January and probably won't be able to take full advantage of the nice pool at Beach Club...do you think it would be worth it? I actually am LESS impressed with the resort theming/rooms (we love the little alligator murphy bed for our little one at POR!), but the ability to walk or take a quick water taxi to Epcot/DHS would be awesome!
What are your thoughts? If it helps give you more info for your advice, we are foodies and would take full advantage of the DxDP....though I have recently started a gluten-free/sugar-free diet for health reasons and can't be such a glutton anymore...
