Advice on where to stay, last minute trip!

[MicheleC]

Help! We usually stay at the Boardwalk Villas, as we are DVC members. We love being in that area and are hesitant to try something new. We were there in May and are going back in November. BUT we just found out about a wedding in Naples, FL in August and of course, we have to go to Disney if we are going to be in Florida. We have APs so there are some nice discounts for August. Does anyone have suggestions on where else to stay? We like the boardwalk area very much and have considered the Swan or Dolphin, any opinions on that? We've never stayed at either but we'd be in the same area. We aren't crazy about busses for everyplace, that's why we like that area. Any other places we should consider? I think the discount is only available right now for Boardwalk Inn in that area. Thanks!

How about Yacht/Beach?

Or Saratoga Springs.....a little further but not much?

I thought about trying Yacht or Beach but no discount is availble. There is a great discount for studio at Saratoga Springs but I don't know much about the resort or how good their busses run. Thanks.

Maybe you should try the Poly or WL! WL is our favorite WDW resort because of the theme! :

If you are used to the BW area, why not spice things up and stay in a monorail resort? Yes you'll have busses to MGM and AK (don't know how long you are staying) but can just hop on the monorail for MK and Epcot. Or if you stay at WL you can boat to MK. I've stayed at the Contemp, poly and VWL and enjoyed all of them. I've visited GF and it looks great too.
