Looking for some opinions on how to handle the day before we check into AKL for a week this summer.
Some background, we are driving from NY, stopping half way. Arriving to Orlando 8/1. Our week at AKL starts 8/2. My original plan was check in on 8/1 in the afternoon to a Disney springs hotel. On 8/1 we were going to walk around Disney springs. Wake up 8/2 and drive to typhoon lagoon and then check in at AKL in the afternoon.
Then I started over thinking….
First i thought I should rent points for a 1 day stay on Disney property for fun on 8/1. Would this change the date we are allowed to go to the waterpark from 8/2 to 8/1? We would be on points 8/1 (no park tickets) and start a free dining promotion on 8/2.
I thought about adding a day at AKL onto our package but we are arriving later in the day 8/1 and I don’t think we will be up for the waterpark that day and the kids are excited to go.
If a Disney springs hotel is the best option for this scenario is there a favorite to stay for one night?
