Sapphire Falls or Royal Pacific advice

We are AP holders for the first time (since Nov. 2015) and would like to get another trip out of them in August. We stayed at CBBR in November and enjoyed it, but would like to try a different hotel. We are a family of 5, 3 boys ages 15, 9, 7.

Here is what I have found:

SF - August 14 -18
$147.20 per night
Total for the 4 nights with tax would be $662.40
that also includes a $150 dining credit. So it gets me to basically $512.40.

RPR - August 14-18
$203.20 per night
Total for the 4 nights with tax would be $914.40
but could possibly get a better price with my AP discounts when those are available.

I'm really tempted to try SF, but would like to have the FOTL.

Which direction would you lean and why. We haven't been to US in years until recently and could use some expert advice.

Here is the new information with BA.com pricing

SF - August 14 -18
$103.75 per night
Total for the 4 nights with tax would be $415
and includes a $150 dining credit. So it gets me to basically $265 or $66.25/night

RPR - August 14-18
$176 per night
Total for the 4 nights with tax would be $704
but could possibly get a better price with my AP discounts when those are available.

I'm not sure what the crowds are like for those dates and whether u need FOTL, if not u can get SF for 414 dollars for those dates using British Airways and u still get the dining credit.

My concern would be the size of the room at Sapphire Falls. Did you have a family suite at Cabana Bay?

WOW, and I looked up on BA.com and the price for RPR was $704

$103 per night - wow and I though I got a good deal!
