many thanks for the photo. It's a great help. Have decided to request an upper floor in conch key. Hopefully will get something nice plus the upper floor should reduce any possible noise from people walking back from the boat dock... I hope!
Hi everyone
Looking for some help to decide. We're staying at Gf for the first time mainly due to the poly construction but looking forward to it. Due to arrive next weekend.
Have booked a theme park view room and currently trying to decide if we should request ground floor or top floor...
Thank you for the info. I will look to book around 60 days out i think.( not long now - yippee!) I'm a little concerned that with the Harry Potter expansion things will be crazy busy so dining could become more tricky for a while.
Great pictures thanks for the regular updates Poly Guy- I'm loving the attention to detail and very excited for this new park addition. I am starting to doubt that this will be launched sometime in June which many seem to be suggesting.
They have made rapid progress which is really impressive...
Hi there
i'm looking for some advice regarding dining reservations for our stay at universal please.
Now that i've made our arrangements for disney dining (phew!) we also have 4 days at universal to consider from July wednesday 9 - sunday 13th. We will be staying at the hard rock hotel...
i was hoping for a date too but i guess it was to be expected that they cannot commit to an exact date, easier to manage expectations that way.
We are due to go on 9th July (i had to bring our holiday forward by a month due to work commitments) - keeping everything crossed that it will have...
So it's getting close for me to book our seats and wondered if anyone had any good advice. Flying this year from Manchester on virgin premium economy out and upper class back to Manchester.
We are 2 adults 2 kids.
Would I be best in the bubble? Also when flying upper class is it best to book...
I had placed a deposit with virgin holidays for July 2014. After pricing DIY all deprecates I found it 4000pounds cheaper. Virgin holidays admitted they couldn't match it and said it is usual to be able to do it cheaper DIY. The problem is insurance, she quoted the ash cloud situation- which I'm...
Thanks! am i quite looking forward to it myself - never flown upper class before, its a little treat.
To be honest i thought i lost the price. When i first saw them i did the usual 'maybe they will be cheaper tomorrow' routine. Typically they went up the next day so i checked every few hours...
I booked with VA last month and all things considered looking back i think i got a pretty good deal. Flying from Manchester July 2014 3 adults 1 child, going out premium economy and return upper class for £5200. Whenever i look now its over £8000!
Now i just have to wait! counting the days...
Sadly i have just cancelled my Poly stay for next July. I have spent weeks going over whether we could put up with building work. Sadly it comes down to me not wanting to take the risk when spending so much money on a holiday.
The Poly is our absolute favourite so it was with a heavy heart...
We stayed at the Poly last year for 2 weeks - it was fantastic but at times it felt a little rushed trying to do as much as possible. The girls loved Aquatica but only managed to go once and we totally missed out on Discovery Cove. Hopefully by going for 21 days this year we will be able to...
Thank you for the suggestion. Looking at the layout map conch key seems a good bet too. Although there is no guarantee i will get the view im after anyway.
Last year my youngest daughter was sometimes so tired by the end of the day it was nice for her to see the fireworks and EWP just before...
Hi
I've never stayed at GF before. Last year we had a great view of the castle and the electric water pageant from the Poly but with all the construction planned i have booked at the GF TPV.
Does anyone know if there is a room or building that will give views of both the castle and the...
I would also consider when you are going next year.
If it is after the planned HP addition then i would look at going to a resort hotel to get the express passes and early access. Maybe increase the number of days at universal if you can as it will be packed!!
I've just arranged 4 days at...
Hi everyone.
I'm looking for some advice on where to stay. I love planning for disney holidays but seem to have got myself into a bit of a twist over a few issues.
I took my family to disney last year for the first time and the kids (DD14 & DD3) loved it. We stayed at the Poly for 14 days...
