Help!!! Where to stay???

[disneyfreak2]

OK.. Now that the free dining is available at the time we are going to WDW...Which resort would you recommend??

Currently we are at the AoA so we don't get the free dining there. If we move to a moderate, we will save over $500. If we stay at the Yacht Club, we will save $20...BUT have the BC pool, able to take kids around on the boardwalk, have the small beach and be able to see the fireworks from Epcot..Oh, and go to Beaches Ice Cream Parlor. I'm just so

It is myself, my DGS age 3(will be 4, 2 weeks after we get back from Disney, my best friend and her DGD age 2.

Any help would greatly be appreciated..I tried to ask my friend, who has never been, what she thinks. But she doesnt understand why it matters where we stay bc we should be able to walk wherever we want... She doesn't understand how BIG WDW is...

Thanks you...

I agree with the pp to book the YC. We've never stayed at the YC but have stayed at the BC and the Epcot resort area is very nice. We've stayed at one mod (CBR) and while we loved the resort and had a great stay, once we tried a deluxe we haven't stayed anything else since. I would take the $20 savings and go with the YC .

Thanks...Thats what I was thinking as well but my friend wanted the saving but then said it was up to me. I just looked at the CBR thread and notice they have changed their pool and have a water play area for little ones..which my grandson would love.

I've stayed at the YC before and loved it. We usually stay in the deluxe but have stayed at moderate as well. Love the deluxe resorts but with two little ones, just thought maybe this time a moderate would be ok. Ugh...decisions, decisions....

I'm not sure what sleeping arrangements you planned, but at YC/BC, you will have 2 queen beds, and possibly a day bed. So your 3 yr olds could share the day bed, and your friends 2 yr old. Can have the pack & play. So I'd stay at YC.

And I think you should get your friend a map & guide book for wdw

also depends on amount of time you will actually be at the resort....I would go with a moderate every time!

I would also go with YC if it's only $20 difference and within your budget! Proximity to 2 parks with little ones is invaluable!
