First Night before BWV

[bnlbebes]

DW, DS, 5 others and I are flying into MCO on a Friday night, arriving at 9:30. We have a reservation starting Saturday at the Boardwalk in WDW. Should we just get a hotel shuttle to an airport hotel for the first night and then get a limo/van the next morning to WDW, or should we pay a bit more and take the limo/van to the Dolphin or Swan and then just walk over the next day to BW with our luggage?

Any opinions or previous experiences?

The hotel IN the airport frequently has discount deals a few months ahead of time. I don't know about short notice. We usually come in late Friday to MCO and stay at the hotel (I think it's the Hyatt). I ususlly rent a car and go shopping on the way to BWV. Can't help with limo question.
Have fun!

Walking from Dolphin/Swan to BWV with luggage would be a little far and I think awkward. I suspect the hotel could arrange to transport the bags for you.

Why not think about your first night at one of the All-Stars or Pop Century??? Then WDW will transfer bags for you.
