So I took the dive and went for it!
I have been to WDW a total of I think 5 times now, and have stayed at POP, All-Star Sports, and CSR, but until now I have never been able to try a deluxe resort.
My dream resort is still to stay at either the CR or Poly, but I have decided to start it off with AKL.
I could not justify the difference in price between a standard room and a savannah view room, so I went with the standard view room. If I can scrounge up some additional funds between now and June, maybe I can try and upgrade.
This will be my third solo trip to WDW, and although solo trips can have their positives and negatives, for me the positives far outweigh the negatives, in that I am in charge of everything that I do, and no answering to anyone but me!
So being brand new to AKL (I have never even stepped foot inside it), what are some things that you all would recommend that I try out? I will be doing the quick service dining plan, just because I am still a bit weirded out by dining alone in a sit down location, I know I shouldn't be, but I am.
Also for a solo traveler, I have always just rented a car, and found that to be very efficient for me to get around property, but I am wondering if using DME solo has any benefits or if any other solo travelers have any opinions on that, given I will be at AKL and that is pretty out there, as far as location.
Any tips or tricks, or information to pass along to the AKL newbie? Thanks ahead of time guys/gals!
