To Split Stay or Not Split Stay...

[ArwenMarie]

I think the question is...Why do you want to do the split stay? If you really want to stay at both resorts, then it's a great way to do that. You kind of get two vacations in one, from the resort standpoint.

I do think having only a week is a little bit short for a split stay. Ten days is better, then you get enough time to really settle in to each resort. We find that the shorter part always feels too short!

We like split stays but when I'm packing up in the middle sometimes I'm like, why did I do this? Then when I get to the new resort, I'm always happy for the change of scenery

Thanks everyone! I decided against the split stay this time. We really like to unpack and get settled when we check in and last time we went during the holidays I put up a small tree and other decorations in the room. I will definitely consider a split stay in the future but just not this trip.

I am travelling down in June. This will be our tenth trip and I have never considered a split stay. Am thinking bout it this time. Have stayed in value every time for the monetary reasons and because we just don't spend a lot of time in resort anyway. We travel for four days of parks, then one day of water park, then four more days of parks before returning home. was thinking this time of doing the first four days at moderate, then On the water park day switching back to value for the final four park days. would this be an easy switch? or even worth the hassle.

Does it cost for Bell Services to move the luggage from resort to resort?

Nope. But it is customary to tip them.

In our experience, it has always been a very easy switch. We call Bell Services at resort #1, tell them we are moving to resort #2 and have them come get our luggage. We check out of resort #1 and head to a park for the day. Sometime around 4 or 5 we head to resort #2 and check in. Once in the room, we call Bell Services and ask them to bring up our luggage while we get ready for dinner. Easy Peasy.

I think that would be worth it. That's a nice long trip and with the water park day in the middle, that would be a perfect switch day.
