The trip is in mid April (we are running the Star Wars Dark side 10k, so dates are non negotiable.) It will be myself and my two sons who are 17 and 10. We have all been to Disney multiple times.
I stayed at Casitas 4 in CSR back in June 2015 and LOVED it! My 10 year old was with me that trip, but not the 17 year old. The waterview (standard view is unavailable) rate for my dates is $200/night.
The Standard view AKL rate is $318. Neither of my kids have been to AKL before, but I stayed in a Savanna room in Feb. 2016. I loved the resort, but I felt like I was not in the room enough to really enjoy the savanna view. For this upcoming trip though, we will only do ONE park day (Sunday) and will be staying Friday-Monday morning...
FWIW, our current ADRs and other plans are
a late afternoon Ohana on Friday,
a late morning Boma on Saturday, and possibly La Nouba and dinner at Disney Springs at night
Park day (HS and Epcot, with an ADR in Epcot) on Sunday
Sunday our flight is at 2, so the 11 am check out time should coincide perfect with Magical Express pick up time! I haven't planned our breakfast yet.
Anyway, considering our plans do you think the additional $118/night for Standard view AKL would be worth it?
