One more week,one more week. one more week. Sorry, I can't contain my excitment. I'm 45 and you'd think I was 12 years old.

 

[pjtm]

can someone help me? I just called with the code SGG - there were no rooms at the Main Loadge. But she offered me a 1 bdrm villa for $350ish less. Is that good? Are the villas far from everything? We have ds7, ds4, dd2 and I don't want to be schlepping them all over the place. We are going in Feb if that matters.

Also - is there a villa I should request?

I know EXACTLY what you mean. We leave in 10 days, and I am beside myself . . . and a few year older than you! I will be totally useless until I land at MCO and hop on the monorail to the main terminal -- our first "Disney" ride.

I have a question -- We have courtyard view booked, and I know I should call and request and "Inner Courtyard" but if I don't, what other type of courtyard view is there?

Thanks!

P.S. Snogger -- have a great trip! Brian -- your days are whittling away too!

 

[*~PrincessBelle~*]

I did it!! Used the new public 40% code for Jan to upgrade from POP to WL standard room for only 150$ more
Only 26 more days

I requested a King bed so I hope I get a room with a bath rather then wheelchair accessible shower....should I call and specify on the ressie I want a room with a bath or are my chances of getting this room good?

That sounds like a really good deal. Never stayed on that side, so I don't know what to tell you.

The other CY view is of the pool at the Villas. Not as nice in my opinion. I would def request the "Inner Courtyard!!!"

Thanks for your encouragement. I finish classes tomorrow, so it will fly by after my last paper is turned in.

40 days!!!

You can't measure Disney excitement in years!

I love being at Disney and seeing the adults as happy as the kids!!!!

I have never stayed in the Villas, so I can't help with the location, but it sounds like you got a great deal! The villas aren't far from the main building at all. Some villas seem to be closer to the bus stops than some of the rooms in the wings of the main Lodge would be, THere is a covered walkway connecting the 2 buildings in case you have any bad weather. I'd go for it! I think with little ones, you will enjoy having the extra space, kitchen & washer/dryer.
