How long do you stay?

[Motherfletcher]

What is the longest stay you have had on-site? I get real jealous of those that say they are staying a week or more. The only time we got to stay a week was during a hurricane and the parks were closed a couple of those days. Living in Florida we get to go more often than most but the average stay is 2 nights and we have done a bunch of one nighters.

The longest stay for us was a week, but that, too, was during hurricane evacuation a few years ago.

Generally for us, without natural disasters or evacuations, three nights is the max. While I love the thrill of staying onsite, I just can't justify the expense of it when we own a timeshare a quarter mile away from USO. Yeah, yeah, the FOTL is priceless some times of the year, but the week of September 19th, the week we own for our timeshare, it's soooo not necessary.

We have stayed for 7 nights at PBH and 6 nights at HRH. It still goes by really quickly. I love the longer vacations because we tend to add a few extra things then. Generally we go for about 3 or 4 nights.

 

[AlexandNessa]

Our average is 5 nights (Thursday - Tuesday), but we've done 6 at PBH, 7 at RPR over Labor Day, and we have 8 nights scheduled at HRH this October. Yeah, Platinum!

OTOH, do you "not get jealous" of the folks who say "We stayed 4 or 5 nights, and that was just too much. We were bored."??? I totally do not get that!

the longest i have stayed at hrh was for 7 nights/8 days.

this coming trip will be for 4 night/ 5 days

i tend to make the stay 3 night/ 4 day the shortest trips.
generally i range between 3 to 5 nights a trip.
a 3 night stay is not long enough for me. not enough time to enjoy the parks and hhn


i do late check out and hang at the parks/hotel to the evening after check out.
i always get a night flight home and don't leave the hotel until the evening.
this gives me practically another entire day there.

We usually do 4-5 nights. Since we have been sooooooo many times, we find it very relaxing but never get tired of it. We also make USO half of our vacation....it's combined with a trip to the Gulf coast or the caribbean or a cruise. A great way to start or end your vacation.

 

[Fan2CSkr]

Most trips are 4-5 nights. Lately I push a week. A couple times we have stayed 9-12 nights. Then there are those quickie 2 nighters that I try and avoid, but not at the cost of not gong at all!

It looks like my next visit wont be until October. We are planning an extended family cruise for July. My ship/cruise-line itinerary choices have all been based on Port Canaveral departures. Yesterday my Mother called me to let me know, "she was on to me." I'm pathetic.

 

[rpbert1]

Stayed 7 nights at RPR last July.
Staying 21 nights at RPR this July.
Because we fly from Ireland and can be quite expensive during school hols we stay as long as we can.
Would much rather be like you guys ,and go more often ,even it is for 1, 2 or 3 nights at a time.

 

[bubba's mom]

Last June was 4 nights.
Feb. was 1 night.
This June will be 5 nights.
Probably Dec. or Jan. for another 2 nites (have an airline credit to "use or lose").

We usually will put in at least 4 nights (DH's idea for 5 this summer) because we then go to DFIL's house in Ocala, Fl. for another 4 nights or so.....having family living in Fla. helps cut down the cost.

 

[macraven]

Staying 21 nights at RPR this July.

hands down, this homie is the winner !!!


21 nights.........wow, that's like 3 weeks.....yes i know.....

 

[damo]

I could stay for 3 weeks and not get bored.

 

[rpbert1]

I could stay longer, but i can only get 3 weeks off work.
