Get away weeks, should I be panicking and book it?- UPDATE

[DawnM]

We got Orbit One!!!! I have been putting off booking, as it didn't show up last weekend and I really wanted to get it. Today was the LAST DAY I was willing to wait for and had a 2nd choice picked just in case.

It showed up today! So, I snatched it.

Looking forward to our stay starting this Friday!!!

Hi Dawn,

I was wandering how you liked your stay at Orbit One? It is one of the places we are considering for our trip in Dec. 08 and were hoping to get more info on it.

Thanks!

Also would be interested in your opinion of Orbit One. I thought I read that if you are staying there you can use the pools at Liki Tiki Village. Anybody know if that is so? We still have our getawayweek to use. TIA Grammy

We stayed at Orbit One in Dec/06. It is a nice resort (my childrens' favourite, actually) and is very clean. It wouldn't be our first choice as our hearts belong to Cypress Point Grand Villas (but have never been able to get it on skyauction again!). The location is very convenient to the parks. You can use the pools at Liki Tiki but I believe the cost is $5. per car load. We didn't take advantage of the opportunity so I don't know what the waterpark is like.

We had planned on staying at Cypress Point Grand Villas (booking through HotelKingdom) until we discovered skyauction a couple of weeks ago. We won two weeks (surf and turf) and will be going in Dec. 08. It would have been great to get Cypress Point through Sky Auction, but I glad to hear that Orbit One is a good place.

Thanks for the info!

I booked my father into an Orbit One exchange via RCI this past February. He really liked it, but he's also used to staying in hotel rooms/suites, so take his enthusiasm with a grain of salt.

My sense from talking to him is that it is a smaller resort, with not much going on activities-wise, but the units themselves are in relatively good repair, and clean. The kids enjoyed the pool.
