I have finally made a decision as to which week to go to WDW, now I can't pick a resort. This is our BIG vacation for the year and our passes expire in August. We do not plan on renewing them as our son will be starting Kindergarten and we can't take him out of school! THis is also a graduation present for me as I am finally graduating from college!!
Our choices are all with dining:
Poly-Lagoon view- We love the Poly and have stayed here before. It really does fell like home to us. We love the ease of the monorail and the boats to get everywhere! The rooms are huge!!! And the smell of the GCH is my favorite!! I would love to sit on my balcony and look over the water to the MK and watch the fireworks and the boat parade!
Comtemporary- Tower- Theme Park View- We have never stayed here but the boys love the monorial. I am not sold on the CR. We have explored it several times and eatten at Chef MIckeys. While the rooms themselves look nice and comfy, I dont care for the rest of the resort. The pool doesn't look as fun as Poly...But I would stay here for my boys. Although the view would be super amazing looking right at MK!
Wilderness Lodge- SV Club Level!! - I have only stayed CL once and it was here at WL. I love love the decor of the WL! The only thing holding me back and making it hard to chose is that the rooms are much smaller than Poly and CR. I like CL but at the same time we have the dining plan and last time it was too much food! We bring drinks for the room so not having them from CL isn't that big of a deal.
I do not want to do a split stay. We stayed at YC last year and moved two days into our stay (to the Poly) and while it was for the better (YC qs place was closed and some construction woke us at 4am!!) it was still a pain.
Any insight between these hotels would be helpful! We are also thinking of doing the water parks for the first time and most of our ADR's are at Epcot and a few at DTD.
THanks
