AOA family suite or WL room?

[terri.woodhull]

I am having so much trouble deciding.

This trip will include DH, and DD18, and possibly my oldest DD also, 9/24 - 10/2. We have stayed at values before, also deluxes and villas.

Resort is very important to DH, he spends a lot of time there. He does not like to share a room with others, so normally we get 2 rooms or a villa. AOA looks so awesome, I am dying to stay there. In this scenario, DH and I in Queen room and kids each with their own bed.

However we loved WL when we stayed there. It was just DH and I, kids stayed in ASMu room. On that trip we got lucky and were upgraded to a 4th floor room overlooking the pool and right over the lobby. Loved it! I'm not expecting the same luck this time though, and I'm not sure that I will like the normal std view rooms.

Thoughts?

Could you rent points for the villas at WL? If i was going to spend a lot of time at the resort I would rather be at a deluxe. Check out David's rentals this could make a one bedroom far more affordable.

I think this will be a tough decision for you. I know that I would not like a standard view at WL if it was over the loading dock.

I know my husband well enough to know that if he didn't like to share a room, then adding two grown daughters to a WL room would definitely feel crowded to him. He would be a big grouch, but then, that is him. He has to have his space. The WL is a much nicer resort for someone who plans to spend a lot of time there, but the family suites would give him his space.

How does he feel about sharing a room at WL versus being in a value resort in a family suite?
