Help/Advice with room configuration

[HaveKidsWillTravel]

Hello All!
We are going to WDW the last week of April 2016. My family consists of Grandparents (2), myself, DH, DS7 and DD 3. We've done WDW before (Sept 2012 and 2014 w/FD and stayed at CBR in connecting rooms). This year we have to stay on a monorail for convenience. Grandparents love enjoying disney with us, but it's a lot for them!!
I'm thinking two rooms at Poly. But I'll stay wherever on the monorail we can get a discount (assuming they do a % discount for the spring) or best rate.
I think I'm just looking for general advice. Is there 'something' out there I might want to consider besides two separate rooms? two bedroom villa?
We want the budget to be reasonable (subjective, i know . . .) We are staying 7 days, but aren't doing a park everyday (if we are staying delux we want to enjoy the resort and pool) and are planning on maybe one sit down meal (depending on where we stay).
Thanks!

You might, and I emphasize might, save some money by renting points for a villa. All 3 monorail resorts have DVC villas associated with them. A villa would also give you a full kitchen and laundry. There is a DVC forum on the Dis that discusses renting points either from an agency or directly from the owner. There are downsides to point rental though. I believe that costs are nonrefundable, and changing your dates might not be an option.

I second looking into renting points.
