It's been a while since we stayed at WDW resorts-- we've been doing DCL for several years, but now are planning to go to WDW this summer and want to know what's the best way to get a good deal on bookings? We have 4 adults and one 16 yr. old child. So, we either need something that will hold 5 (possibley 6, if he brings a friend) or two separate rooms. We want moderate or above. We like the cabins at Ft. Wilderness, villas sound good, but maybe too expensive. Any suggestions? In the old days, you could call a couple months before going and ask for any specials they were running and perhaps get something better for a good price. Since so many of you are very experienced, what do you suggest about how to get the most for your money and the best deals? What about the best deal for tickets? We want to go to the multiple parks and water parks. Thanks for your help.
