Dining plan

If you are staying for 14 days straight can you book the DDP for only 7 days or do you have to have 2 separate bookings of 7 days each but ask not to be moved?

just thinking it would save some money if we got some groceries for half the time.

You have to book DDP for your entire reservation, for everyone in the room. So if you want to split the time (7 days on, 7 days off) you'd need to make 2 ressies. Keep in mind, your credits for the DDP stay will begin on your first night of THAT 7 day ressie, and expire at midnight on the LAST day of THAT 7 day ressie....they wont' carry over into the next 7 days where you'd be "off" the DDP.

I'd find a way to break it up. Maybe try a different resort as well. Of course you don't have to do it 7 and 7, you could do 5 & 9 or any combo if you wanted. Generally i prefer to have the DDP first in this situation if you're not arriving too late on day 1. But if you do break up the reservation, you may have to move even for the same resort and same unit type though you can ask to be in the same unit. You'd still have to checkout then back in again on the changeover day.

I'd certainly split it up. We like DDP, but we only go for 4-5 days at a time. I think I'd get pretty tired of it after a week. I'm not thinking about the expense -- just the repetitiveness of standardized menus and eating in a Disney restaurant every night for two weeks!
