Did I miss why Poly isn't on your list? It seems to have everything you want - romantic, quiet (in my experience), view of Wishes, doesn't remind you of home ...

But between BWI and WL I'd say you can't really go wrong with either. I'd go with which one "speaks" to you more as they really are very different. Since it sounds like nightlife and easy access to the parks is high on your list then I'd go with BWI - it couldn't be easier to get to EC and even DHS is just a (very pretty) walk away.

My wife and I spent a week of our honeymoon at WDW, staying at the BC along with the Swan. Just realize that there will be kids EVERYWHERE, regardless of your decision. Having said that (and being sucha fan of the BC), I would say that my recommendation would be the BWI as far as ambiance and romance. You can't beat the nightlife there, and if you are going to spring for CL, ask for one of the Garden Suites. They actually have two levels to them and are incredibly romantic. My wife and I almost stayed there but we wanted to check out the DVC at the BC, so we ended up staying there (and buying into DVC)!

As far as food goes, we tried the dining plan once, and we both felt we had the cruise ship mentality where we had to eat because we paid for it. We like having the freedom to eat wherever and whenever we want. If you're as crazed as the rest of us on these boards and are planning to return to WDW soon, you may want to look into getting an AP. The AP gets you a slight discount on some restaurants. Even better, get a Tables in Wonderland Card. For a hundred bucks, you get a 20% discount on pretty much every restaurant in WDW, including the bar tab! If you're like us on our honeymoon, this card pretty much paid for itself after a couple of nice dinners and a couple of drunken nights at Jellyrolls!

Either way, have a great time and congratulations!

Well..honestly. It's too expensive. I need to stay under $3,500 without airfare. For 6 nights. I've decided to bump a day back and make it 6 nights instead of 5. With tickets + park hoppers and no dining plan. I just priced Poly with a regular base garden view..comes out to like $3,900ish.

WL...courtyard view, 7/7 to 7/13 comes to $3,200ish. Perfect. But I can be a little more flexible than that.



Tara...thank you. You know what I'm talking about with the whole, white cotton sheets and gross, rough, polyestery sheets at WL/AKL.
