Help! Staying At AKL in two rooms

[Ruaa91]

I'm planing on staying at Disney's AKL on my coming Florida trip

We're a family of 6 so two rooms are required but i'm wondering if it's possible to book a stander room and a savannah view and the two rooms would be near each other I preferre booking from disney's website packages but it doesn't offer two rooms option

So, I'm thinking expedia.com or hotels.com


If there's a way to book two rooms from disney's web site please help me

You'd have to split up the adults with one in each room if the rooms do not have a connecting door between them.

CALL. Talking to a Walt Disney World reservationist will allow you to reserve two rooms, and to request that the two rooms in different categories be close to each other.

If you only have 2 adults Disney will expect that an adult will sleep in each of those rooms. Not sure if that is the case for your family, but Disney won't allow you to book 2 rooms that don't connect, and then say put 4 kids in one room and then the 2 adults sleep in the other room.

Thank You guys for the replays

Planing a Disney trip is more confusing then I thought

I send an email they told me I should make two saprate reservation and then call to request the two rooms on the opposite side of the hallway however the request won't be guaranteed so I think I should give them a call

Have you looked into renting points for a 2 bedroom Villa? Cost wise it might be cheaper and you would be all together unless you wanted to be split up.

It's actually 200$ more /per night

I don't see how that is possible. When someone says "rent points", they mean to rent points from a DVC member in a private transaction. They don't mean to reserve a room through Disney. Points rent from $10-$13 a point and for a 2 bedroom it would be around 50 points a night depending on when you go.

Edit to add: I just checked on a week in July. It would be $5175 for 2 rooms (1 savanna and 1 standard) through Disney reservations. Now I did not figure in any discounts, but the current special only covers the standard room and does not cover Savanna views. That same week using DVC points for a 2BR Savanna view would be 372 points for 7 nights. At $13 a point, that would be $4800. Plus, using DVC would give you a villa with a living room and a kitchen as well as a washer and dryer.

Pool view at AKL is not much more then standard view. You can get a Savannah view room and a pool view and request the rooms across the hall from each other.
