spray fountain at pop

[music54]

is it great like the one at epcot ?
my kids love going to epcot just for that sprinker thing that comes out of the ground on your way to ws
im looking to stay at pop in february for this reason but its 150 more than assp
not sure if its worth it
i used to go with the deluxe resorts but stayed at assp in oct and now im a convert

Why would Pop be more than All Stars? They are both value resorts and should be the same price unless you are getting a discount at AS-Sp that is not available at Pop (or you priced a preferred view at Pop).

Can't say for sure about the fountain as I ahve not stayed there yet (will be there in Dec), but I've seen pictures of it. The water jets shoot up out of the ground and look like fun to me!

Well, I don't think it's worth it JUST for the spray.
Yeah, it's like the one at Epcot, over a slightly larger area.

i dont know why it would be more-i also thought a value resort price is a value resort price
i used the best rate
i have an apso i went for the br program -maybe thats why - who knows

 

[Straitlover]

Yes, that's probably why. All the cheapest rooms at Pop for BR are probably all booked.

I don't have kids, so I don't know if my opinion matters as much, but I would not pay an extra $150 for a fountain. Just let them play in the fountain at Epcot for free . Besides, it might be too cold in Feb, and I would be mad to pay the extra and then not to be able to play in it!

I would look into why the price difference. Maybe there was a mistake on the quote for Pop, like a preferred room or something.

As for the extra $150 for the pop jets, I'm not sure I'd spend that much more, but I know my DS would've been enthralled with them. That was our reason for booking Pop in Feb and when we got there they weren't working! My son was a VERY active 3 year old at the time of our last trip (unable to go in the pool by himself) and that Pop Jet area would've been absolutely wonderful for him to burn off some steam. I would've gladly paid extra for that!!

Does anybody know if the water is heated at the spray jets. WE will be going in Feb.and I know that they heat the pools.
