So Confused about Choices

[bostonlass]

Hi. For the past few years I have taken my daughters on a cruise each April vacation and we loved it immensely. I loved the security of knowing that all food was paid for and the convenience of having a kids club for the kiddo's to go to while I got some R&R.

That being said, I am seriously considering a Disney vacation on land in April 06 and I'm wondering what the best way to go about it is. I went on the Disney site and although I can't book so far in advance I did a test run making pretend that I was going in December. The price for 5 days with park passes, food included for a Moderate was cheaper than the cruise price that we normally pay! I'm just wondering.....there are so many choices that I don't know where to begin. Does the food included option mean you can eat anywhere including O'Hanas etc? Is there a place to check out the moderate resorts with reviews of each one? I"m definitely a newbie in this area, though I know a TON about the Disney Wonder.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!!

The food option has specific restaurants that participate and for some of the premium ones you have to use 2 of your sit down meals instead of one

If you go back to the trip planner click on the link in the ressies that has Dining oPtion there is a way to see the brochure.

If you want to know if it'd be worth it to you www.touringplans.com has information on that in one of their links.

Thanks! Do all of the resorts have a children's program or just some of them?

I dont know --I printed out the brochure but haven't been able to look over it

Also, character meals at some are incldued as one sit down

And

Hoop De Doo, Back yard BBQ, and Aloha can also be done but you have to use 2 sit down meals per person (and some of the signature restaurants require that as well).


If you look at the scenarios it shows how to save the most money
