The Contemporary!
There must be something wrong with me! We just returned from a fabulous stay at AKL. We booked our Sept 09 through the bounceback for AKL.
Well..DH just called tonight and for $100 more we can stay at the Contemporary. (garden view...MK view was about $2K more...not in the budget!) The factors that led me to switch was #1..DS5 is autistic so transportation is very important. The buses were fabulous at AKL this past trip, but we booked for later in Sept into Oct for the F&W festival so we anticpate that the crowds will be bigger thus affecting the bus system. And #2 the CM confirmed that with the villas opening at AKL they will be adding 1 or possibly 2 more bus stops thus adding to the transportation. Clearly the Contemporary has a huge advantage in getting to and from the MK/Epcot. (which is where we spend the most of our time). We stayed at the Poly when DS was little and loved the monorail access...The bus sytems was great at AKL but can't compare to the monorail access in terms of getting in and out of the parks...Did I do the right thing? I really think so...just looking for some positive thoughts to make me feel ok!
