    Tips for Doing Atlantis-Paradise Island for Less

    Soooo excited reading these posts. The food costs always scared the day lights out of me and I always threw my hands up and said " we can't afford to go". If it's no worse than Disney, we can def do this. We are aiming for 3rd week of August (we always take a big vacation that week).

    Oh dear!!! No no no. I did not mean to type Cove. Haha. I meant Coral Towers. I WISH I was leaning towards to Cove! We may actually end up the Beach Tower!!

    Tips for Doing Atlantis-Paradise Island for Less

    Wooo hooo!! I think you made my day!! Is the Dunkin Donuts in walking distance? I did consider staying at Comfort Inn. If we stay at Atlantis we are going to be in the Cove which is probably the same distance as Comfort Inn to the water parks. I imagine we won't spend that much money...

    Tips for Doing Atlantis-Paradise Island for Less

    We are really hoping to get to Atlantis this year but the unknown cost of food is what is stopping us. We are a family of 4. 2 adults and 2 kids ages 11 & 9. We are NOT fancy eaters and do not drink alcohol. When we go to Disney, we typically spend $1000 for a week on food. I am ok with...

    The we loooooove Bonnet Creek thread Part 3

    What's the probability of checking in early? By early, I mean 10:30am. Our flight arrives in Orlando at 9:45am. Trying to figure out if we will be able to check in then or if we should head to a themepark for the afternoon. I prefer to check in and hopefully (weather permitting) use the pools...

    Disney Park Hopper. Yes or No.

    We have never purchased hopper for our tix. We just pick 1 park a day and plan to just come and go as we please throughout the day. We have never said, during any of our trips, that we wished we could hop to another. So, having said that, I would save the money and not buy it. However, we have...

    Vacatin strategy prices

    This was our 1st time booking with Vacation Strategy for our upcoming trip. I actually got 2 quotes, 1 being VS. The other agency was $300 cheaper and I asked VS if they would price match. All I had to do was forward them the other quote and they matched it. It pays to shop around.

    August opinion?

    We take the 3rd week of August for Disney and we find the crowds to be VERY manageable. If you are going the last week in August, then the crowds will be even less. On average, we wait 20 min for an attraction. Towards the end of the week, the crowds are significantly less. Our schools start...

    Park other than Disney?

    I am REALLY trying to expand our theme park visits to hit Islands of Adventure, but I feel like I will be so let down as I know it's NOT disney. We love everything about all the Disney parks. We are heading to Disney in late Feb for 4 nights and have 3 FULL days and 3/4 of the day on each...

    Islands of Adventure

    We've never been to Islands of Adventure before and our last trip to Universal was 7 years ago. We have 1 spare day and are traveling with DH, DS8, DD 10 and DM70. Is Islands of Adventure duable in 1 day? Worth it?

    What's the deal with all of the scooters?

    Hahaha I too thought the same when I finished reading this. We are a family of 4 that frequents Disney so here is my 2 cents. YES, it IS a pain to have to wait for a scooter to load the bus first, after you waited 30 + min for a bus, a scooter arrives in the last second and then gets to board...

    I don't know what I did to get it. We visit Disney often and have never received it before. I didn't reorder the DVD either. All I know is this is super helpful since I am surprising my DH and kids with a quick trip in February to Disney as a Xmas gift. This $200 will certainly come in...
