Should we change from Coronado Springs to AoA???

[Jeneliz]

We are 1 month away from our trip and we are second guessing ourselves! We LOVE Coronado!!! Weve stayed here a few times before and LOVE it! I believe we get the best bang for our buck there! We love the rooms (beds), Buses and food!!

So now we are second guessing ourselves now.

Our 5 1/2 year old LOVES (and I mean OBSESSED) with Lion King!!! Its so pulling on my heartstrings you cant imagine!!

It is $1,000 more!!!!!

So tell me...worth it??

We have 18 month old too!!

How are the buses?
Food?
Distance to Food/Buses?
Bus ride?

Because it's about them, as much as it is about you and family, the $1,000.00 to go to AoA and see them freak out and be overjoyed is well worth the price of the upgrade IMO. We opened AoA in late May and the look on DD7 and DS 12 months was priceless.

How are the buses? They were fast and efficient. They do NOT share with POP and the ride is directly to the park posted on the bus.

Food? It was OK, but didn't find enough kid-friendly food. Pop would have a better selection for food.

Distance to Food/Buses? From LK, the walk is less than 5 minutes, if that, depending on your speed. The buses are right outside of Animation Hall and the cafeteria is inside of that building. So as soon as you finish eating, you go out through the gift shop and you're right there at the buses.

Bus ride? It goes direct to each park. For MK, you go straight to the park and NOT the TTC. We prefer to use our rental car, but if you don't have one and do buses only, the service at AoA won't disappoint and it'll be just as good as at CSR.

Why not do a split stay? This way you could have the best of both worlds.

I agree about the food at AoA. We were disappointed. Choices were limited. Our sandwiches included STALE bread. We never ate there again.
