Bonnet Creek and Budgeting

[Chilly]

Just trying to put together a budget for next years trip so wanted to get a rough idea on how much Bonnet Creek (and everything else) will be. I know there were a few websites suggested for booking BC through but I didn't write them down, so who do you book with?

I have booked 6 times with Ken and Denise Price at www.vacationupgrades.com
I can't recommend highly enough. Paid between $120 and €140 depending on time of year. I thinks it's a bargain. I just love it there. Will be back for another 3 weeks next year. My brother and best friends family will be going back too. They have both stayed once but say they won't stay anywhere else.
Please feel free to ask anything you like about Bonnet Creek.

I used Booking.com via Quidco, worked out a few £'s cheaper than Vacationupgrades for our dates.

For what you get for your money it is a bargain, £70/nt for a 2 bed apartment was very good value. Similar size at OKW was £485/nt last time I looked

Thanks, I knew is started with the word vacation. According to their website we'll be paying $120 a night as we'll get a 2 bed in Value season with no confirmation fee so about £1000 for 2 weeks.

Booking.com only goes up to September so I can't check the price for November yet.

No, its a bit early yet for next Nov, I found best price in Jan for a Sept reservation.

I'll get my flights booked first and go from there.

I'm so thinking of bonnet creek split stay for our next family trip!
It would mean we can add in a.disney cruise with the savings which is crazy!

We normally do the 3wks on site,but thanks to all the pics that Portugal put up,it looks to good to miss! Especially now I'm happy driving in the USA.

We always get a car and don't use Disney busses much normally so that's not a problem for us either, just need to work out what to do about a car seat though, think maybe we'll take the inlaws one with us on the plane. We are trying to do this trip on a budget so eating off site and making use of the kitchen.

Wyndham or I think it comes up on Trivago as Orlando BC. Its a Timeshare complex compared to the Hilton which is a hotel. There have been a few threads this year about it if you use the search, ask for help if you struggle to find them.

Well I really love Wyndham bonnet creek which is opposite the Hilton bonnet creek. There are lots of threads about the Wyndham one on the hotels board. Please feel free to ask whatever you like. I have spent over 100 nights here.

We haven't been yet but we're going for the Wyndham one because that way we get 2 bedrooms and a kitchen rather than a hotel room.

I'll hold you to that when it comes to booking next yr for 2016!
We want to take boys on a 7 night cruise, so we will have to budget more on accommodation,I'm hoping as they will have ate loads on the ship,they wont mind not having ddp.
We haven't gone without it for the last 6 trips! And spending so much on food is the only thing that scares me!
I'm all for grabbing cereal etc for the room but I hate to cook on holiday.

If you are going to have a car then eating offsite is very cheap compared to Disney prices. As a family of 3 adults it costs us anywhere between $25 at Sweet Tomatoes upto $70 at Cheesecake Factory. A pint of beer between $2-3, everything is about half Disney pricing. I have never cooked on holiday, I do enough of that at home

We'll be eating offsite for our evening meal next year for the 1st time so i'll need a list of everyones favs.

Plan on a few Character breakfasts but will do them at the latest possible time so they are more like brunch and cover both meals.

Think we'll have to do our 2 fav Disney restaurants though, Ohana and Cali Grill. Oh and Raglan Road.
