Need help deciding - 2 rooms @ Poly or BCV?

I need help...cannot decide on this.

First let me say that my dh is very picky and doesn't like to try new things, so as much as I would like to try an alternative to these to hotels, I will never get him to stay anywhere else.

So...that being said, i need help deciding what to do. We have four small kids (9, 7, 4 and 2) and love to stay at the Poly for the ambiance and the convenience of the monorail. We also love BC, however, because we love the pool and ambiance and are big Epcot fans.

So that leads to my dilemma...do we spend a bit more and book two rooms at the Poly or do we get a 2 bedroom at BCV? Or do we get 2 rooms at BC? I think that the BC pool would be great for my two older ones but dh and I will have to be separated most of the time with two kids in each area. But we have stayed at the Poly the last few times and we wanted to mix it up a bit.

Opinions please??

Thanks

I vote for a 2 br at the BCV. The convenience of having a full kitchen and laundry facilities is marvelous. Plus hte great sand pool area for the kids and did I mention the master bedroom? Be nice to spend your vacation WITH your hubby

I would go for the BCV just for the space. Well the pool looks wonderful also and I love being close to Epcot.

I have only stayed in a one bedroom villa but I thought it was huge. With so many people, I like to have some space. The kitchen and washer/dryer are also great assets. Even if you are not planning on eating in the room-still nice to have the kitchen for snacks, saving leftovers, etc. I always end up washing clothes on vacation because I like to pack lite.

I'm sure whatever you choose, your vacation will be great.

Def. the 2 BR at BCV. You'll have two bathrooms, three beds plus a pull out sofa, and the full kitchen, living room and a washer and dryer. We stayed at SSR last year and loved th space of a 2 BR (we were five adults and two children, worked out perfectly for us).

And at BCV, you'll have Stormalong Bay!

Thanks so much for all of your opinions!

I was all set to book BCV, called for my reservation, and they didn't have any

They only had studios left and they are not connecting.

Sooo...I ended up booking 2 rooms at Poly, garden view-club level.

I might still change my mind and get 2 rooms at BC...we will see what dh thinks.
