Just switched to Contemporary!!!

I have been calling and checking for about a month almost everyday, and nothing. This morning I checked and there were rooms for almost every view available at the CR for December 21-26 with the code ZDG. I don't know if a gathering cancelled or rooms were finished getting remodeled, or what, but I am excited.

Now I have to figure out how to afford the difference in cost. (Minor detail, but i have a 2 year old daughter, so our vacation is going to be that much better now that we are on the monorail.)

Great job!! You will love this resort. We stayed there in 2003 and cant wait until we can stay there again. Did you get a tower room? Ask for a MK view if you did and the highest floor up thats not conceriege. We were on 11th floor, MK view. Amazing view!! Have a great time!!

If you don't mind,would you post the cost.Reason I ask is we stay at the Contemporary almost every year (sometimes the Poly or GF) and this year we are staying at AKL (split stay last year between Contemporary and AKL) and would love to know the price because there were no rooms open for any of the many codes,discount,AAA.etc I tried for us.Also are you in the tower or wing?We had our tower rooms (always need 2) on hold for months with AAA only rate waiting on a code,pkg,etc and we had major problems with our airlines (took 3 days to work out)and we had to change our dates.So the 2 tower rooms had to be canceled and then there has never been anything open at the Contemporary for our new travel dates.Also if you don't mind posting how many in your party and with what tickets,etc.Just makes me wish we could have gotten the Contemporary,but AKL is also very nice.Make sure you go to Chef Mickeys its great for kids and even adults.I will miss the monorail,you will love it.

We are staying in the garden wing with just a standard view. It is costing us $2060 for me, my DW, my DD2 with 6 day hoppers, and the DDP. Of course my daughter is still free. According to the website, there are still tower rooms available and more garden rooms.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Congrats!

Same thing just happened to me for my February dates! I am psyched, as I have not been here since 2002 - obviously before the renovation.

We booked a Tower Magic Kingdom view, and I just can not wait!

This is the first WDW hotel we stayed in and we had a 6,4,and 2 year old at the time...you will just love the convenience, especially with that little one! ENJOY!

Maybe they will have a free upgrade to the tower for you when you go. This happened to my dearsis when they went in mid Dec. a few years back. Booked a wing, but got a MK view tower room. We went that same year, but in April and it was much more crowded. No offer of a free upgrade, but we did get a discounted one. We went ahead and paid the difference and what a great time we had in the tower MK view room. Have fun at this resort!!
