How were the buses??? The crowds???
Did you take any resort pictures???
We have 12 days until our vacation and I would love to hear anything you
want to tell us!! I'm very excited!!
The busses were great! Sports is the first All-Star pick-up on the way to the parks and the first drop-off back at the resort - that was a fantastic surprise and saved us buckets of travel time, I'm sure!!!
The crowds at the Disney parks were INSANE! I was expecting much lower congestion and was disappointed, frankly. Oh well, that just meant that we really had to get to the parks at rope drop and do the rides at the top of our lists first to avoid the massive line-ups
The room was great! I was expecting a much smaller room from the pictures I've seen here on the DIS and was pleasantly surprised at the room size. There was a fair amount of floor space for my boys to put their
Lego sets together and play jedi with their light sabres LOL
The swimming pools were great - the main pool (the Surf's Up pool) is quite large and the other pool (I think it's called the Homerun pool, but we called it the baseball pool lol) is smaller, but just as fun. The lifeguards were absolutely fantastic at both pools (yep, we used both of the pools lol) - they play games periodically with the kids, throw pool toys into the pool for everyone to use and are extremely diligent about making sure everyone is safe.
The food court was decent - it was very busy in the mornings and at dinner time, but it wasn't insane busy kwim? Getting the resort mug was great because the beverage station is right by the resort room side of the food court, so you can avoid any crowds and zip in, get your coffee or whatever and zip right out. The food quality was fine, I was pleasantly surprised there too. My favourite was the chicken alfredo - I had that both times we were at the hotel around dinner time and thought it was perfectly fine. My sons loved any of the food in the Mickey head plates - we took 8 of those plates home (they're disposable plastic). I'm hoping that my 6yo son will eat more veggies if they're on a Mickey plate
The safe in the room was quite small - it won't hold a laptop computer, for instance. We used it for our passports and our cash.
Mousekeeping was great - we got a few towel "bows" on our toilet
and the boys' stuffed animals were rearranged a few times, much to the amusement of all of us (who knew that stuffies watched TV while the humans are out of the room?) LOL
Any other questions I'd be happy to answer - it was a great resort, we all enjoyed it very much!
...we have planned a quick 2 night trip for MVMCP and are staying at AS Sports for the first time...where is the preferred rooms located and is there a pic of the layout of the rooms/resort map? Any other info ro advice (good, bad, and ugly) would be appreciated!!!
