Can't decide which resort....help

[tink20]

We are going back June 2018. Originally I had picked CBR, but then learned of the big refurb. I'm still not totally against staying there, just waiting to hear some feedback from guests. My biggest concern is not having a food court, and worried bus service won't be good.

Secondly, thought about POR, but not really excited about that. POR has always been so crowded the times we've stayed there. I like CSR, but we stayed there last time, so wanted to stay somewhere different. We have stayed at all of these before. We have never stayed at PORFQ, but I don't like just having one pool. (Last time @ CSR we really enjoyed the quiet pool)

Not totally against a value, have stayed at POP, ASMU & Sports. It's just we are bringing a baby this trip, and thought the covered bus stops would be better.

Wish we could try a deluxe, but I just don't want to spend that much on a room, plus probably not in the budget anyway.

When should I book? Seems the rest of this whole year is pretty booked (been playing around on the website) but it doesn't go past December. Should I call and book a room only or just wait?

WWY pick?

2018 rates won't come out until ~June. Since you are so far out and you mentioned deluxe, have you looked into renting DVC points? A studio will run you about the same as a moderate with no discount.

Have you thought about a suite at Art of Animation? Multiple pools, plenty of room. I think that would be on my short list if I were in the same situation.

If you stayed at POFQ you can use the pool at POR and also visit their food court. It is a short walk or boat ride.

If you wanted to stay at POFQ, you could use POR's pool as well. I know it's not as convenient, but it's an option.
