OKW or SSR by choice?

[TheDailyMoo]

So I have the second leg of a split stay booked at an OKW studio near hospitality with my newly bought OKW contract. My 7 month is coming up and I'm looking at many great options that are still open...all of which I've stayed at. In fact been at each of the resorts at least once except OKW and SSR. I have this weird desire to just let it ride and try it out. We rent a car each time so bussing and travelling isn't an issue. So two questions I guess:

1) Between OKW studio near hospitality and let's say an SSR preferred (assuming the preferred is still available) which is the one to stay at if I want to go ahead and try one of the two "resorts of last resort" on purpose.

2) Am I being stupid forgoing a Poly, or a VGF, or Wilderness for one of those two? Am I viewing this with Rose colored glasses and will regret my decision when staying there? First half of the trip is BCV.

Did my first SSR stay a couple weeks back. It will likely be my last. Too dang spread out and we were preferred by the Lobby. (I can’t speak to OKW.) Cannot imagine going BCV to SSR, what a downgrade- unless you like Disney Springs and stay in the preferred section where you can walk to DS. That’s pretty special.

I tend to be in the try anything once camp for repeat visitors but I’d wait on trying this trip and instead try on a trip when you can OKW/SSR first and then move onto a property you know you like. Best case you love your whole trip, worst case you learn a lesson but are left with the best feelings since you liked the final hotel.

All depends on what you like. OKW has a lot of appeal to me. Take the boat to DS and enjoy the quiet, peaceful environment.

We stay at VGF because it is actually pretty calm over in the villas building.
