OMG how did I not find this thread sooner!?!? HELP HELP HELP! I'm going insane with my indecisiveness. Two days ago I finally told myself, "no, we are staying put, quit toying around with the idea of making a switch." That lasted all of a few hours until I was back online researching what my options were... I feel like I'm losing my mind!
Long story short, we were originally booked at POR using a bounceback. I decided to make a switch to surprise DH (we are going to celebrate our first anniversary and have both acknowledged this will probably be our last trip before trying to start a family). I changed to Yacht Club CL GV--this will be our first time staying deluxe. I am SOOO excited, although a little nervous because I've heard rumors of construction and not knowing whether we could be displaced as a result thereof is terrifying, and I'm also not sure the room décor is really our cup of tea. For me the allure was being so close to Epcot, DHS, and the Boardwalk (DH specifically requested we make a trip over to the Boardwalk this trip to grab a bite to eat and explore), and SAB looks amazing (which is a bonus since our arrival day we planned to hang out at the resort pool).
Over the weekend I (stupidly) played the "if we won the lottery and money was no option and we could stay at any deluxe we wanted, where would you want to stay?" He just kept saying he thought he would rather stay at POR than any deluxe (ugh!! although, to be fair, he has only stayed on property once--at POR for our honeymoon). After showing him videos of some of the resorts, he said he really like the Poly because he likes the idea of staying at a themed hotel while in Disney because it feels a little more special than just staying at a nice hotel that is coincidentally on Disney property. I can see why he finds Poly appealing, and think he would like AKL as well. So now I'm making myself crazy toying with the idea of if I should switch to one of those... For approximately the same price (because currently there is no availability at either w/ our bb offer), I could switch to AKL Arusha view room OR Poly deluxe studio villa. PROS: those rooms are gorgeous and the décor seems to be much more our taste. CONS: we would lose the club level and, if at AKL, would lose the convenience factor in terms of transportation/location.
Thoughts? Should I stay or should I switch? Reassurance that I'm not entirely insane for flipping back and forth on this will also be greatly appreciated!
