Suggestions please?

I'm having trouble deciding between HRH & PBH for my DH's and I's 'sneak away' weekend next year, but that's another story....I may have to pick randomly out of a hat to choose the resort.....


What I'm looking for is a good time to go with the least crowds and best weather.... I was really considering March 2004 or April 2004. If I avoid Easter...should I be OK since I will have Front of the Line access?

The only other option...I guess would be October 2003 or Nov 2003 and my new baby will be awfully young to leave with the grandparents...even for a weekend. I'd prefer the spring, but I'm so afraid of the crowds. Nov.'s probably a really slow time, huh?

Is it possible to call right now to check discounts for next spring yet?

Thanks for ANY help that you can offer.

We were there in March 2002 and FOTL made the crowds a non-factor. I think as long as you are onsite, you should be fine. And I would try for as early in March as possible.

I totally agree!! Make sure its before the 2nd week in March. We are heading there next week and all 3 hotels are Sold Out!

ughhh....that's what I was afraid of. Maybe I could try for March 5-8 next year. eeek.

Thanks so much you 2!!!

Don't be afraid! Those dates should be fine. We were there 3/11-3/15 last year, and like I said, crowds were a non-factor. In some ways, the crowds make it a little more fun. You can't help but feeling like a big shot when the line for Spiderman or MIB is 90 minutes long and you are practically walking on.

Thanks again.....one more question...if you don't mind.....

Was the weather nice? I just came back from FLA Feb. 1-8 and we had weather in the low to mid 70's and we even swam 2 of the days.

It was VERY comfortable for touring, but it just didn't feel like FLA to me. I really want sunshine this time....and slightly warmer temps (closer to 80 than 70's).

Possible? Probable? Or forget it? LOL

Thanks again!!

The weather was great last year. Perfect actually. I don't think it rained the entire time we were there. It was warm, but not too warm. Definitely warm enough for the pool. The kids swam several days. We never put put on long sleeves then entire time. You're going at a great time.
