Honestly, what would you do?

We are booked in a 1bdrm at AKV for three nights end of Aug.'08. The first night is on points and the following 2 are cash ressie with no discount of any kind. We are a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 children 15,7&5) and this is our first trip to our "home" resort. My concerns with the 1 bdrm is that all 3 of my girls would be squished up in the living room.Last year we booked a 2 bdrm @ Saratoga and that was perfect for us.
So I was playing around on Disney.com checking out regular rooms at AKL concierge level and absolutely everything is booked, except for....................................................the Royal Assante Presidential. So I put a hold on the room while I give it some serious thought (and we are seriously considering it).
We are new DVC members and maybe this one last splurge would be well worth the memories.
Honestly, what would you do?
Come to think of it I believe I probably should have posted this in the DVC section. Sorry about that.

I think spending that kind of cash on a hotel room for such a short stay is nuts. If you are thinking about spending so much money, spend it on fireworks cruises or something special. It will make for better pictures

If you have the money, go for the suite! It looks incredible in the photos, and would be a "royal" treat!

Actually, we will be doing the fireworks cruise for DH and DD's birthdays.

You'll love it. I've done both versions and I liked Wishes the best. With wishes you are out in the open water and it feels like it was made just for you. Illuminations they stick you under a bridge in close proximity to other boats. I mean, real close, but it was neat to see it at that angle.

I honestly feel you'll be fine staying 3 nights in a 1bdrm villa. They are really roomy compared to standard hotel rooms.
