Debi:
I enjoy travelling solo and I enjoy the luxury of, once a year, staying in one of the deluxes. Last year, I spent Christmas time at WDW. After 4 nights at AsMu, I went to the Dolphin and had a wonderful time. The room was huge! I felt comfortable and at home. I enjoyed going back to my room in the evening and watching the fireworks. This year, I am going to spend a few days at AsMu again and then... I am sailing the Wonder by myself and then I will be spending 5 nights at AKL Concierge. Of course, i wouldnt't be able to stay there if I had not managed to grab an AP rate.
If you budget allows, I would say that you probably deserve to pamper yourself a bit. WL is a wonderful resort, and not one of the most expensive deluxes either. Maybe there will be coded rates and other discounts. So just keep your eyes on these boards: I know that people managed to get WL for as low as US$ 129 this fall (according to the mousesavers.com site). Have fun with your planning.
