The All New Grand Floridian FAQ - MAY 2009

[dizneedoll]

I am in the process of making Tshirts for the family. I found some really cute GF ones. And found the thread here of people that will help you with the artwork (create it for you) and then you can print it out and make the shirt. I can do the easy ones, but they do some fab work! And even invites for dinners, scrap booking, autograph books, journal pages... so neat! (I am driving DH nuts)

Where did you find the GF print for t-shirts? I would love to make some GF t-shirts for us too!

that last one is an a file i just made with all of them in there. I couldn't figure out who made them.

leane, when bouncebacks are offered, I think it is intended for everyone. At the resorts we've been, the offer is on the bedside table or the dresser/armoire.

However, they're not offered all the time and even when one is available it is not for all dates. We were at three different resorts last month and didn't have a bounceback offer at any. Good luck...hope you get one!

I just booked last night a trip to the GF RPC for June/July 2010! We haven't even gone on our December trip yet I guess I am just Disney obsessed! We are staying Sugar Loaf in December (RPC wasn't available), and my family and I are so excited! We have stayed RPC three times before, and this will be our first time at Sugar Loaf. Can't wait!

Thanks for the info BVC 23

Thanks for the info BVC 23

You're welcome.

One other thing...apparently from time to time an offer is missing from a particular room. I suppose housekeeping forgets to place it in the room. If you ask on the code and rates resort forum shortly before your trip, you can find out if there is a current bounceback offer. If so and yours is missing, just call housekeeping and ask.

Really hope you get one!

Double congrats on having two trips to the GF booked!

Found a few more in my journey the first one would look pretty nice on a t shirt. You can use picasa to add names or what not. Let me know if you would like me to help you with that if your not good with that stuff.

Lala Congratulations!!! The only thing better than one GF trip is two... I have never stayed in RPC...but am a big fan of SL...hope you'll enjoy it too!

I just got the WDTC fax from my TA today! Seeing mine and DD's name listed along with the Grand Floridian (and my request for Sago Key) makes it even more real! And I'm liking the Nikki Bryan spa voucher listed on our package. Does anyone know if they do a mother daughter spa package at the GF?

Thanks BCV23 and BlueSkies for your info about the Grand Floridian Tea. Since we're not doing annual passes (we're buying Disneyland annual passes next year), I can't use Tables in Wonderland. No issue paying out of pocket for it--it'll be so worth it!

How fun to get confirmation! It makes it seem more concrete, doesn't it?

You're so right. The tea will be worth it as you make memories with your daughter. I take it the cousins won't be along on that trip?

Those are awesome!! Thanks again!! I have so many saved after spending way to much time on the Disign boards! I'm going to use some for my planning binder too.

Hi MisStinkerBelle! They do have a mother daughter spa package, it's 2.5 hours and the cost is $490 which to me is a little scary!
They do have several options for girls too, like My First Manicure etc. Here is thier website listing all the services at the GF:

Hi!

My daughter and I are currently booked in a Sugar Loaf Club level room but I was wondering about the Lodge Tower rooms. I see that they can be booked on a standard reservation but can't find them for club level. Are they available for Sugar Loaf?

Thanks,

Jennifer

They are indeed but not as a separate booking class. Available by request only. Good luck!

There will be 5 of us in an RPC standard room- 4 -15 year olds and me. How large is the day bed? The girls don't mind crowding in a bed- they sleep 4 in my daughter's queen sized bed at home but I'm curious just in case we need it for sleeping. Thank-you.

 

[BlueSkies]

rie's mom Saw your ticker..what a wonderful surprise for your DD...OMG four 15 year old girls in one room!!! Are you packing ear plugs for yourself... I have two full grown and tall sons...and both have slept in the day bed (not at the same time!!) and have said it was very comfortable...Have a great trip!!

We'll moving from 2 rooms at CSR to the 1 GF room. I'm bringing earplugs!!
It isn't her birthday surprise. She always says that she wishes that she had picked GF when we're on the monorail, so this time, she'll get her wish.

Thanks for the day bed info!!!!

A cloudless morning + Sago Cay MK view + Channel 19 on =

The new tile work at the GF's entrance is spectacular! :

Hmm. I think it's time for some Mickey Waffles! [However, we're leaving tomorrow for home....]

All the best.
