I've been going back and forth about this for months - it's time to call in the experts!!
We are headed to WDW for just 3 nights this June before we board the Fantasy. We have been to WDW before with our kids and stayed at the Beach Club (2x) and the Poly. Each time we've done the dining plan. We loved the resorts and the ease of using the DP. This time, however, we booked the Dolphin because the rate was good compared to the Deluxe resorts ($200/night).
But.... I've always wanted to stay at the Boardwalk, and I've been second-guessing the Dolphin since the day I made the reservation.
So, here's my question for those of you who have stayed at the Swan/Dolphin before: is the price break worth the trade-off of no dining plan, and a few other missing Disney amenities? Will the family still love the resort and be enchanted by the pool and the overall experience? Obviously, the Boardwalk is much more expensive. Just not sure what to do!
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!!
