Staying at Pop Century with 3 friends from 7th to 14th May. Doing a split stay with Universal, staying at Surfside from 30th April to 7th May and then on to Disney afterwards.

Haven't been in May before and really looking forward to the Flower & Garden festival!

I am so bummed but that we will be missing the free waterpark day by 2 days
I thought for sure it would have started that weekend. Time to rethink that day now.

I originally had a trip to Disneyland scheduled, but getting laid off prior to Christmas meant I had to cancel. I did book a trip to Disney's Hilton Head Resort as a consolation prize. We'll be there May 13-18.

The Summer 2026 Room Only discount for stays starting May 1 has arrived. I just cancelled and rebooked my GDT reservation and saved over $460.

to the thread! I just added your stay to the list. Not a bad backup trip! I've always wanted to stay there. I will have to consider it on our next car trip to WDW. I hope everything works out!

Hello everyone! Staying one night before we head over to WL CL in May (2 rooms). Hubby and 2 adult kids and myself. Originally booked 2 rooms for that one night at French Quarter, but now I am looking at all of us in either Art of Animation Nemo Suite (the set up would definitely work with the beds) or Beach Club Deluxe Studio Resort view (would also work). Both the Suite and the Deluxe Studio will be less $$. I would love to see any of the above resorts and since the next day will be a pool day we could enjoy swimming at any of them and will probably check in to WL later that next day. Thoughts on these three choices? We have an early flight and should be on property by 1 p.m. or so. Thank you!

 

[disneydreamer781]

I've never stayed at AoA so I can't speak for that resort but if I'm to understand that the next day you're planning a pool day, I would definitely go with the Beach Club because of Stormalong Bay.
