AKL or GF?

I've stayed at the AKL but not the GF...yet. :goodvibes

The AKL has a theming that more cultural while the GF is more 'era'. It's just different. Unlike at the GF, the resort isn't broken up into separate buildings.

The theming is very nice at the GF and I'm very interested in trying it, but the AKL really makes you feel like you're really in some far-away place. I like the Poly for that reason as well. :thumbsup2

My only beef with the AKL is the bus transportation. Not that it's bad because it really wasn't. It's just that it seemed to take forever to get the MK. But on the buses we hardly ever had to stand and the buses came very prompt and often.
 
My DW and I just went thru the same dilemna albeit a bit different as we were deciding on btwn the Poly and AKL before we left to book our BounceBack special.

After a few Orange Dreams :goodvibes and allot of bus rides, we decided on the Poly over the AKL b/c of the ease of transportation, the wonderful beach areas which the GF also has, being so close to the MK, and watching the fireworks from the resort.

We have stayed at the AKL SV and loved it, but we love the beach and pools more as it gives another aspect to our vacation. Not to mention we love the Poly!

Thanks we lived by the beach that is why the Poly didn't really caught our attention.
 
We are returning in Dec. for our 2nd stay at AKL. I'm not an expert on the lodge, but I know when I'm in love with a place!!!! :love: I actually cried when we were checking out. Buses were not a problem for us. Our wait time was always 10 min. or less (except for one early AM to MK), and our actual ride time was perfect (we were able to review our maps and plans for the day). December can't get here soon enough for me. :santa:
