I have stayed in Vistana Resort in one of the older section - Springs - loved it!!!
Big condo - lots and lots of room!!!
i have also sent a discount on
www.mousesavers.com
I also own DVC - so I stay both on and off site. That say - when I am onsite I generally drive to everything except MK and AK - Mk it is just easier to get there. the buses are a LOT closer to the AK - you do enough walking at WDW why add to it?
however Pop century has some of the fastest buses - we never waited more than 10 minutes for a bus - and we were generally back faster than I could have driven. Given you do sometimes have to air out your car before you can leave. and if I arrived later - WDW tram is not always quick about getting you to your car (especially when they are only running one of them).
the magic - I really love my WDW stays - but I also love my off-site stays.
some people hate offsite others hate onsite.
I like both!!! We love the 2-bedroom I can get thru either RCI (exchanges) or last call or skyauction. I could get a 2-bedroom using my points but they need so many points that I generally get a studio or 2 studios depending upon who is coming....
how you feel will depend upon you.
this is a good deal - so if it will save your money go for it!!!
