so after being nickeled and dimed to death by Disney I have opted to take my money elsewhere.
I have booked a 6 night stay from 4/25/2022-5/1/2022
I am booked at Royal Pacific for myself and my 22 year old grandson.
please tell me your best "not to miss" tips and "things to avoid" tips
 
Planning
- Booking a deluxe resort means you did all of the hard planning, and are setup for a very relaxing vacation. EPs allow you to sleep in and the proximity to the parks make it easy to go back for a nap or swimming. The boats are a great way to get to the parks too!
- Recently restaurant reservations are becoming more important. Hopefully, they'll be fully staffed and that won't be an issue. You are also travelling during a low crowd time, so it makes it less of an issue

Financial Tips
- Consider buying APs instead of regular tickets, as a Seasonal Pass will likely be cheaper
- APs open up the APH rates at the resorts, which will likely save an additional 15%-25% over the Savvy Traveler rate. Use this link to check for APH rates: https://res.windsurfercrs.com/ibe/d...ls=&ada=0&currid=1&vouchercode=&attendeeCode=

Rides/Shows
- If you are Harry Potter fans, take a look at https://www.disboards.com/threads/wizarding-world-touring-plans-and-details.3666427/ to make sure you don't miss anything
- Hagrids and Velocicoaster do not take EPs, so you will need to take that into consideration. But with 6 nights, you should have no problems fitting it in
- We really love the Horror Make-Up show
- Bourne was a very impressive show that should definitely see at least once

Restaurants
- Parks: Three Broomsticks, Leaky cauldron , and Mythos are must-dos for us
- CityWalk: Toothsomes and Cowfish
- We enjoyed The Kitchen at HRH for breakfast/lunch
- Very nice dinner at Bice at PBH
