I guess it's a good one to have. We are planning a trip for me, DH, DS27, DDIL, DGS, DGD, DD24, DGS, and DS18. I planned on booking Bonnet Creek, a 3 BR, but I just called WDW reservations, and there is a PIN by my name for FREE DINING!!!!! And yes, it is for our dates! So, it's back to the drawing board! I have to decide if it would be better to get 3 separate rooms, or stay in the 3BR offsite! Hmmmm, the problems we have!! LOL!
 
Okay, gotta ask... what dates are they for?

That is a great problem (one which would be quickly answered for me... ON SITE, FREE DINING!!! LOL For a group THAT large, gotta figure you'd be saving a ton on food for the week.:thumbsup2
 
I would just go into the WDW reservations site and start pricing it out. But free dining for that large of a group, seems like it would be worth it!

Is it QSDP?
 
that I didn't ask! I assume it is QSDP for the mods and value resorts, which is in our price range. We like the idea of QS anyway, since the grand kids are still little (all 3 of them will still be under age 3). The problem is, in order to fit everyone, without being bunched up, we will have to get 3 rooms. That is non-negotiable, my DH will not be cramped in a hotel room! As we have aged, we both have become a little spoiled!
Our dates are May 20th- May 24th. Yes, only 4 nights, but I figure with little ones, that will be enough time. I know we won't see it all, but we have been many times before, and will go again, so that's ok. We will probably be focusing on things for the kids... DS18 will likely roam on his own for big parts of the day (he loves doing that), and his girlfriend might come along, so no problems there.
I've priced it out, and to stay in a value (POP Century), with QSDP, and tix, for 3 rooms, it comes to approx $2900.00 I think that's a steal, but I'm not sure DH will want to stay in a value. CBR comes out at $3800.00, still not bad. But, Bonnet Creek, in a 3 BR, with tix and 2 rental cars comes in at approx $2300.00. I will have to talk to DH and see what we want to do. I like the idea of being onsite and having the ease of the DP, but I'm not convinced that is the cheapest option. Since DH and I are paying for all of it, we have to keep costs down. And, the monkey wrench in the whole plan is... DD22 and her DH may come too! They have to find out about his apprenticeship for school, which they won't know about until mid March! I guess if I have to, I can add them in to one of the rooms if need be, since there will be space......
 

Well that's a great dilemma to have!

If it is QS with val or mod, I'd just go with a value since you're only there 4 nights. You probably won't be at the resort all that much anyway. With a group that large, I'd be happy for on-site transportation so everyone could come and go as they please rather than waiting for others with the car. Also, not having to worry about feeding a group would be a great enticer for me too.
