2 Rooms for a Large family

[wdw4rfam]

Another thing to consider is that WDW will not guarantee connecting rooms, or even adjoining (next door). It can be request and frequently accommodated, but no guarantee. With kids your age I would not take a chance on risking the 2 rooms potentially being on different floors and/or in different areas of the resort, to say nothing of not connecting. Again, many people report they request connecting and always get it, but WDW won't guarantee it and there have been times a family had to split up.

Good luck!

This was not true in our case. When I reserved ASMU, we called to book and were told when there are children in the second room they DO guarentee connecting rooms. We had no troubles.

If I was guaranteed a room that fell under the policy allowing it I'd be expecting an adequate alternative.

It's their policy, not mine. Now, CMs that say things that are guaranteed that aren't is a totally different story

The problem is, they say both things. You have people with reservations stating Guaranteed Connecting Rooms, while the WDW web site states that connecting rooms are a request only, and not guaranteed.

As far as getting an adequate alternative, all Disney guarantees you when you make a reservation is a room(s) at a Disney resort. That is all. Room type is not guaranteed.

Really? We (DH, DD, and me) stayed at Pop in Feb 2011 and had a king room. No problems at all.

Not allowed if your daughter was 5. Did you give her correct age on the reservation?
