Resort Changers--The Saga Continues.....

[Cinderumbrella]

Yep, I'm back.

Background: We are currently (some previous changes have occurred) booked first 4 nts. Poly (mil. -40%) and then 7 nts. (4/3) CR/CL, and we will be driving.

DH asks this morning if we should change our last nt. at Poly to BLT so that it will be easier for me to do laundry mid-trip(and, he knows I thought it would be neat to stay there opening week, but I was out-voted.) It ruins about half a day for me to go to the CR laundry, so he thought being at BLT would lessen my laundry burden.

WWYD? TIA.

Oh, I am ALL ABOUT enabling!! Do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm... I recognize you from the CR thread and you are quite the schemer! Of course you'd be all for this!

No more takers?

Me?! Scheme??

 

[stepdisney]

Yeah....DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can always change your mind. YOU know you want to do it.........

Happy mothers day by the way to all!!!

My DH has decided that we will drive across country next year and go to Disneyland...uncharted resort territory for me. We will rent a van and drive to Cali stopping along the way to see the country. Then we will visit the mouse on the west coast and fly home. I'm asking early. Where are we going to stay??!!!

You Lucky Duck!!!!!!!!!!! I would loe to do this!!!!!!
When we went to Disneyland many years ago (1999) we stayed at a Holiday Inn. A Disney hotel at that time was way out of our price range and DH was in California on business so the hotel was boked for us. I remember it as being very nice and clean and suited our needs at the time.
You have alot of research to do

Change my mind? That seems to have already happened - again - looks like we're changing from Poly to BC instead of adding BLT for one night. I won't involve you guys in that one though, seeing that I already involved the BC/YC threaders. I told DH I was too embarrassed to mention even on this thread that I'd be changing for about the 6th time. Gotta love 'em - those WDTC CMs are VERY patient and accomodating.

Disneyland, what's that? What an adventure! You'll have to tell us all about it when you return. The Resorts thread can offer you great advice.

Nothing is embarrassing when it comes to changes on this thread. If you read back you will realize that at one point, I couldn't remember where i was booked and had to call Disney to ask a CM.

I keep thinking that I will miss Disneyworld but I have been reading a bit about Cali, it seems like it will be fine. But.....where to stay....THAT is the question!

I changed my trip dates and resort this time. When I booked originally the Pop was not available but when I had to change the dates it was!

I have been a lurker on this thread for quite some time and decided that today is the day that I would finally post and admit I have resort changeritis (after I got off the phone with CRO yet again). For our vacation this year this is what I have changed (so far)...

First we planned to go in October (during DD fall break). We originally booked the Poly with a bounceback offer last fall. A couple months ago I changed that reservation to CBR. Now my DD is going to a different school this fall and they don't get a fall break in October so we had to pick a new time to travel...

We then thought we'd try to be frugal this year so booked our stay on points at the Swan. But alas, it was announced ... Free Dining in August/September !

Soooooo, we booked the Poly again for the end of August. Then I started feeling guilty about not being frugal so I went down a deluxe notch and booked the WL. I was still having sleepless nights thinking how much we could save if we stayed at a moderate/value so I booked Pop.
We then started looking at staying at CBR and CSR again. I read the UOG, the Passporter and these boards trying to decide what was better - a new renovated room at CSR or a larger room with 2 sinks at CBR. We spent many nights at the dinner table talking about which mod to change our Pop reservation too. Finally last Friday while reading these boards I said, "that's it - I'm done thinking about it - I'm booking Poly again!" So I changed our ressie on Friday night. I just got off the phone with CRO a few minutes ago to add another night to our vacation at the Poly.
Tell me there is hope for me.

Until next time my resort changeritis hits - thanks for listening!

 

[WDWKOOK]

No, there's no hope - to this thread! I sense you will be a repeat poster.

I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we all can definitely relate to your scenario. Congratulations on taking the first step in admitting you have a problem.

hey all you Resort Changers!!!

Missed you all! Hope all is well in resort changer land

Been super busy with life....lol....and this trip has crept (sp?) up on me

So, any changes you may ask????? lol

After a hundred changes or so...lol

We are at VWl to start off, works out great for our MK days and ADR's, and a surprise fireworks cruise for the girls

Then off to BCV, I did change our flight just the other day so we get an extra night and DD12 will be 2 hrs late for school the next day

I just switched from FQ to WL last week with the current code, I wonder............if the Poly is available with the code? I better hurry and decide because we leave June 18th. Nah,I have plenty of time.

I've opened-up a Poly room for you (well, for Aug.) - yesterday, I switched my Poly res. (with the -40% military code) to BC. This makes "tweaking" #6 for our Aug. trip (DH is an enabler). Afterwards, my DD10 said to me, "It's perfect now, you're not going to change it again, right?" Nope, I'm done...

If you do change, don't forget to check the Disney website first for the 35% off availability. Like the 4/3, you can book it online and see what's available by clicking-on the "summer sale" icon.

Happy changing everyone!

Hey Stepdisney. I lived in the Bay area for 20 years (prior to our move to OH) and went faithfully to Disney every year! I stayed at lots of nearby properties. The nicest resort is the California Resort, but it's probably most expensive. Let me know what you have in mind and I can recommend a place. Disney is smaller than WDW MK - you'll have fun making comparisons!

Hey Disneybride03 glad you are back!!!

 

[stepdisney]

I heard that the Grand Cali is like WL. I loved WL mostly because of the proximity to MK and the boat, and the lobby....wait, I LOVE WL. I know that I want to stay at Grand Cali....but wait.....There seems to be a hotel that reminds me of the CR. Very sleek and modern like.... I can't focus on this now, I'm approaching my dinning reservation date.....UGH. I CAN'T decide where to try.....HELP!!!

 

[blissventure]

I've dithered around trying to decide whether to split our stay or not. I waited so long I was probably risking being thrown out of the resort changers club.
Never fear! Today, I split our stay!! We'll be two nights at the Wilderness Lodge, and five at the Boardwalk Inn. Hooray!!!
