    5 PEOPLE...3 adults...where to stay?

    No one else mentioned it but the new Art of Animation resorts has three separate beds and two bathrooms. Our family of five is planning on staying in the Nemo Suites the next time we go. They seem like they would be bigger then the All Star suites but still run in the value/moderate price...

    I need help so much to figure out!!!

    My family and I booked through AAA. The TA got us the free dining after we had booked. So we added an extra day and still saved $40. I also had the Disney Visa that I used every now and then when I might normally have used credit(online shopping). I then got a giftcard as "cashback" that I...

    values sold out for our week in Feb

    Just so you know when we were there at the end of September for free dining most hotels were sold out of anytype of room but the parks were not that busy. We even changed dining ressies mid week and walked up to two sit downs. Believe me when I tell you it wasn't that busy because the last two...

    Hmm....Which Resort?

    Stay at AKL. You are surrounded by African theming from the minute you enter the lobby. The grounds are studded with animal areas and if you score a savannah view then you can see them first thing in the morning. The pool area is breathtaking with lush plants surrounding it. Even the bottom...

    When can you request new bedding?

    While there in September my son had a coughing fit and "spit up" a little on his sheets. Two hours later he wet the bed. (something he does not do often) I called Mousekeeping in the morning, told them the situation and asked that all the bedding be removed. They didn't sound really happy...

    No resorts open this weekend??

    I stayed at the Gaylord Paloms Resort last year for a convention and could not believe how beautiful the hotel was!!!!!! We had an Atrium veiw and it was so nice to look out to the "Rainforest/jungle). Almost as nice as our recent Savanna view at AKL.

    Just back from AKL

    Just a tip to all those of you going soon. I would almost rather have a room near the lobby/pool area than a savanna view because it was nice to have a short trip to the busses. Also remember that they come every twenty minutes or so not right on the minute but fairly close. That is on the...

    Just back from AKL

    We did not try Jiko even though I would have liked to. :sad2: We were there during free dining and I didn't want to lose two points. Boma was very interesting. I enjoyed getting to try African foods that I normally wouldn't have ordered if I had to pay for a seperate entree. I didn't know...

    Just back from AKL

    During the day if I stood on our balcony I could see and hear a little of the construction but it wasn't enough to bother me. They had a little feeding area right below our room and the animals spent a lot of time there.

    Just back from AKL

    Sorry everyone. I just looked at my map. We stayed in room 4112. Which is on Ostrich Trail with a veiw of the Sunset Savanna. I don't know why I thought it was Giraffe.:confused3 We were the second or third room in and heard nothing from the lobby. The rooms started further down the hall...

    Booking a trip..would you book airfare 6 months out?

    Book now with SW and if the rates go down they will give you a credit voucher if you file for it. We booked as soon as the rates and schedules were up. They obviously started out with the best rates in the first place.

    Just back from AKL

    The rooms were absolutely amazing. The service was great. Mousekeeping moved us to early cleaning when they realized my children would be napping. The Boma CM helped us rearange some of our ADR's. The check in CM got my parents a room next to ours so they could help with the kids. We stayed...

    Have you ever had a medical emergency in a Disney park or resort; what did you do?

    DS4 barfed all over the loading area just as we were getting on Pirates. Before I even realized it was vomit the CM was on the phone to get it cleaned up. He was very gracious and said it happens all the time as I apologized for the thousanth time. DS was fine, we think it was motion sickness...

    Where do you display LGMH's?

    We leave in four days and I have a few LGMHs. I laminated some and will hang them from my stroller, bag, and probably a few on my hotel door.(AKL) I plan on getting a Tinkerbell pin in the park and will try to hang one from that too.
