*** The Official August 2016 Thread! ***

[BudgieMama]

I'm booked for April, but think I may push it back to August.


Is the facebook page for August yet?

Yes, the group has been running for a little while now

Oh,if we switch, our dates will be August 25-September 4 staying at Caribbean Beach or Pop. If I can book free dining, we'll stay at Caribbean Beach. That way I can add on the deluxe dining. If I have to pay full price for dining, we'll stay at Pop (our favorite resort ).

Anyone know the 2016 rate to upgrade regular free dining to the deluxe dining?

We finally figured out our dates and booked our trip! August 26th - September 2nd and we are staying at the Yacht Club for the first time. We are planning on a lot of afternoon pool time, it's been a long time since we've gone during the summer. Now to figure out our adrs plans.

Count us in. Myself, dh and dd will be going August 25-sept 3. We normally going in September but my daughter is now in middle school and I hate taking her out of school now two times a year for vacation so we moved to August. We will be at WL CL

We always go in August because I need to be back for school too. It's a great way to finish off summer holidays with a trip to Disney Happy planning!

What exactly is a MAGICAL deal? My dates are Aug 14-18. Are the rates better than booking direct? Special resorts?
You cam PM if it isn't allowed here on the boards.

Thanks

I did this deal last year again have it booked again for this summer. I just googled magical labor day deal. I have Contemporary booked @ $244 a night and Beach Club @ $214 a night I believe. You can always ask for a quote. They usually get back to you within a day. Good luck!

GREAT rates, Laughing Place.
I requested a quote!!!!!

 

[shopn24seven]

Is there a special planning group on FB, or it all done here?

 

[OurLaughingPlace]

GREAT rates, Laughing Place.
I requested a quote!!!!!

Good luck. Hope there's still lots left
There is a FB group, but I'm not on FB. BudgieMama (who started the August thread and is organizing dates) can probably help you out with the FB group.

Welcome to the fun!

Sorry I haven't updated the list just yet- I need to wait until I'm back at work to do it on a split screen!

For those who were asking, the Facebook group is called Disboard Team August 2016. Not sure how many from the thread are in the group- I got a notification of the new group from the 2014 group, so I suspect many people roll over from the previous group!

 

[Rjmdds]

Count us in too! We will be there August 19-27th at the Villas at the Grand Floridian. It will be our first stay as owners at our home resort!
