    Best place for groceries? strollers?

    We used garden grocer last month and everything had already been delivered when we got to the resort. They also called to confirm my order after I placed it (you will need to order at least 2-3 days before you want it delivered) and then texted to confirm that it was at the resort. We rented...

    Strategy help with almost 5 yo boy and almost 2 yo girl, first timers!

    We just went in October with a 6 and 3 year old, so here goes. 1. Definitely go back to the hotel for a nap at lunch time. We took sandwiches into the park and the kids ate them on the bus so that when we got back to the resort they were ready for naptime (well, at least the 3 year old...

    Overwhelmed cruise planner...HELP ME PLEASE!

    Thank you both for the feedback! My husband and I talked about it last night and I think we will stick with the category that we had already booked and spend a few extra days in Orlando since the cruise won't cost as much. I think the verandah would be nice, but I would probably be the only...

    ALOHA! The Polynesian Resort Information Thread: September 2012

    Help! I am trying to decide between getting a TPV studio in BLT vs a standard room at the Poly. We are only planning to stay for 2 nights in May after our cruise. We will be spending 1 day at MK, so that's why we wanted to be on the monorail. We have only ever stayed off site or at a...

    We just returned from a 5 day stay at POR in a river view RGR and were put in Oak Manor. Our family of 4 had a connecting room with my mom and brother.

    Anyone NOT doing MNSSHP?

    This is our first official onsite Disney trip and we decided to skip MNSSHP and Food & Wine since our kids are so young. We plan on taking advantage of the special activities at POR that evening and getting a good night's sleep. We are also only doing MK and only for 2 days because I think the...

    Caribe Royale opinons..

    We stayed there in 2010 for a convention and loved it. We stayed in one of the 2 bedroom suites with a kitchen and laundry and there was plenty of room for the 6 of us. We cooked meals to save money on food and the price of the room was less than a Disney deluxe resort. The room and hotel...

    The main one was a Saturday 8:05 am at CRT. It was a big deal to my daughter, and I got it. The others shouldn't be too hard to get (Chef Mickey's, LTT, T Rex). OK, back on topic, did I mention we are VERY excited to be staying at POR in 6 months!!
