A coworker is going to WDW next fall. It's her first time, and will be her, her husband, 6 year old girl and 4 year old boy. I said Poly was best bet because of MK access and the pool.
Where do you send your first timer friends to?[/QUOTE]
Our first trip we chose the Poly. We had preschool aged children. The deciding factor for us knowing nothing about WDW was location, amenties and theme. Although we were thrilled to take our first family vacation to WDW, we wanted to be as comfortable as possible away from home with three little ones. It was a great choice. The room was large. We slept comfortably in the queen beds and day bed. The children loved the pool and beach. It was right on the monorail next to the MK. The resort had great TS and CS.
I always suggest staying in budget. But, I always hope that the Poly is part of their budget--it is truly magical.
