The magic bands are linked to your account, not your hotel. So, as long as all the bands are activated, they will all work. We had Annual Passes last year, and always stayed on site. We had 5 sets of magic bands for each member of our family. They all worked! All your FP and hotel...

I haven't read through this awesome (but long) thread, so forgive me if this has already been answered... We are planning on doing a split stay as follows: 10/7-10/11 CBR MYW with free dining (have a bounceback) 10/11-10/13 Poly room only My question is....can we eat at Ohanas using dining...

We have stayed at POR 3 times, and CR once. We really loved the convenience of CR to the MK. For us, it was worth the money. If you spend the majority of your time at MK (with a 5 year old, I bet you do), then it is so convenient! Epcot is convenient too! If we weren't staying at CR, we...

If you pack a day bag with swim suits and valuables, you can lock it in lockers at the park. We did a split stay last trip and really liked it. It was a longer trip though. Approx 5 nights at each resort. As some have mentioned, we stay at deluxe and plan our days around the resort we are...

If you are talking about Easter week...I wouldn't want to go at that time. Ever. It is one of the most crowded times of the year! However, If your spring break is a couple weeks before or after Easter...it could be much less crowded than Easter week. We went March 28 - April 3 this year. 3...

I would pick your deluxe resort based on where you spend the most time. If you tend to spend the majority of your time at MK, then pick CR, Poly or GF. If you will spend most time at Epcot, go with BW, BC, YC. If you spend a mix at both, I'd go with the Poly, since you can monorail to MK and...

Our family's number one reason for choosing deluxe is LOCATION! We like walking to MK from the Contemporary, or hopping on a monorail from Poly. And we like the Epcot area resorts so we can walk to Epcot and boat to HS. We are not big fans of the buses. We are a family of 5, so our options...

The Mickey Kitchen Sink sundae bowl (Shaped like Mickey Pants) is available for $23 at Beaches and Cream and at The Plaza/Main Street Ice cream in MK.

I should add that my above experiences were at lunchtime. It may be more crowded at dinner...not sure.

It is not hard to walk up and get a table. My husband and I walked right in at the beginning of May. Then we walked right in as a family of 5 in July. You may not get a shady table, but you should get right in. They offer small plates. It's the same salad as inside, but a smaller portion...

Glad to hear. Thanks for sharing

Or you may have luck riding 7DMT close to closing. We tried at opening on an EMH morning, and the line was ridiculous! I agree with above poster....Soarin is a must for a newbie. BOG now passes out FP tickets in the morning. Not sure of the procedure, but it has changed very recently...

Above is a great suggestion. Just note: this is a dinner menu item only. It is huge and will easily feed 2. At lunchtime, they serve a 1/2 rotisserie chicken with 2 sides, which is also huge and will feed 2. Not sure how big of eaters your kids are, but my younger 2 LOVE the "Power pack"...

Another thought...If your daughters vacation time is limited, and that is weighing in on her decision....perhaps she may like it if you take the kids on a trip, and allow her and her husband to take a trip alone as a couple to a different destination. I know I would love that arrangement!!

One of your daughters concerns may be missing school. It's very difficult for a 14 year old to catch up after missing school. What if you try to incorporate other parts of Disney, such as the waterparks? Or stay at a deluxe with a nice pool. Maybe a Disney Cruise. The teen lounge may...

I wouldn't want to do it! Value rooms at Disney are much smaller than your typical hotel room. You will be tripping over each other. Plus, your husband wouldn't be able to get FP+ with the rest of the family. The price difference to stay at POR seems very worth it to me. The resort is...

one more thing...Villas of Wilderness Lodge CAN accommodate a family of 5 in a studio. (Queen, sleeper sofa and a sleeper chair). It's a beautiful resort priced lower than the other deluxe resorts. The boat to MK is a nice way to travel. Plus you can boat to Contemporary and monorail to...

We are a family of 5, and have stayed both deluxe and moderate Disney resorts. Our kids are 5, 7 and 10 (our 10 year old is the size of a 12 year old), and they ALL fit comfortably on the murphy bed at POR. They fought over who gets to sleep on it :) My kids loved the pool. They have...

I love the look of the new rooms! I found the old CBR rooms to look outdated, and more "Floridian" than "Caribbean". I never wanted to stay there. But after seeing pics of the new rooms, I plan to book a bounceback for next year! I also LOVE that they added the Murphy beds. We are a...

I can't compare the 2 since I have never stayed at CBR. But, CSR would be a great trip for a couple. It would be very worth it to pay for preferred. This will get you a seat on every bus (as you will be the 1st stop), and you will be close to the main building and all it's amenities. I also...
