Help!! AK or WL

[lucki4]

I am pretty sure I have narrowed it down between AK or WL (hey, I am learning the abbreviations)
The reason why is the queen & bunk rooms. That would be best for our family. Going through the Disney Website, for the summer savings, the difference in price is about $200 total for the week, AK being more. Not much of a difference for 6 days I think.
opinions needed on which one is preferable.
Oh, we will be going the last week in July.

Another thing, I compared prices on Expedia and Disney and Disney was cheaper. Do you think it's best to book on the Disney website? Or should I call to guarantee getting the bunk room.

Hi,

I haven't stayed at AKL but, WL is my favourite resort, it is so beautiful. I think I would decide which parks I would be visiting most and base my decision on that. If you are visiting MK a lot with young kids then definitely the WL.

They won't guarantee you bunk beds either way but, ask at check in too. We have always asked at check in and always got bunk beds.

I've stayed at both and I say AKL. There's a great thread below comparing them, check it out.

Thanks for the info. Though we don't have little kids - teenagers, I think the water part of it makes WL more suitable for us. Only took me two days to make the decision.
