Sorry if these questions been asked and answered. I'm sure they have, but I couldn't find what I was looking for! We are considering a split stay BWV/Poly, 4 nights each...first trip to WDW.
If we do a split stay...
1. Will I be able to book all of our ADRs on day 180+ 10. Or will I only be able to do the 4 nights for my first reservation and then have to wait until my second reservation opens up for the next 4 nights?
2. Same with FP+...will I be able to book all 7 days of FP+ on the 60 mark for the start of our trip?
3. Since we will have a car, is it best to drive from BWV to Poly...check in at Poly, leave luggage (assuming room won't be ready) and head out to MK? How long (approximately) would all of that take?
4. If we have perishable food from our stay at the BWV, will we be able to leave that with the bell hop at the Poly and will it be kept cold until we check into our room?
5. Do you think it will be hard for us to go from a 1-bedroom BW Villa to a standard room at the Poly? We would eat breakfast in our room 4 mornings in the villa and do any laundry needed before moving to the Poly. Or we could just stay in a standard room at the BWI, skipping a villa entirely. But that means no breakfast in our room and no laundry. ???
I am OK with the packing/unpacking, moving luggage, etc. My main concern is not missing out on ADRs and FP+.
Our main reasoning in doing this split stay is so that we can walk/boat to EP/HS from BWV and then monorail to MK from Poly...taking advantage of the locations of both resorts and to experience two different areas in WDW. Any feedback or advice is welcome!
Thanks!
