Polynesian Concierge?

[cmd0819]

Hi everyone,
I have us booked at the Poly Aug 18-23 for a (surprise! DF and I decided we couldn't afford a honeymoon, but I got a great code and saved my every penny!) honeymoon! Right now, we're in the garden view, but after reading about the concierge level, I would love to do that for this special trip.

Does anyone have an idea of how much more a concierge is than a regular room? Thanks!

It is a lot more than the garden view. You will have a wonderful time no matter if you are concierge or not. It is a beautiful resort. What a nice surprise! Have a wonderful time!

We priced CL for our stay in January and it was quite a bit more. Unfortunately, no CL were available for MLK weekend. If you're on a budget, I would just stick with the garden view room at the Poly. It's a beautiful resort. You'll love it no matter what longhouse you're in.

I suppose concierge is a bit much! Here's the short story...

My FI and I decided not to go on a honeymoon after our Maine wedding bc of we're paying for the wedding -- and even a budget wedding is expensive! -- and instead plan on taking a honeymoon next summer. But, I checked Delta (we're using skymiles to get from CA to Maine) and we could add a leg to Orlando to the trip without costing extra miles! I got a great discount on a room at the Poly, have been secretly saving some $ from tutoring, and so we're headed to the Poly for four nights!

My FI is going to be so excited -- we have gone to disney every year now for four years. He is the biggest Disney fan -- maybe more than me! This past summer, we decided to to Disney every other year (to try to visit some other places) and so when we decided to put off the honeymoon until next summer we realized that next summer was supposed to be our disney summer. Needless to say, FI was bummed (even though Europe is a pretty nice trade!) that were were not going to go back to disney for another 2 years. I can't wait to tell him! He thinks we are staying 2 nights at a friends beach house near orlando and I hope that I can hold out until we arrive at the airport and get on the Magical Express rather than the rental car!
