we are staying at Port Orleans Riverside... my FH picked this one over the CBR. i was fine with either of them, but he liked the atmosphere at POR better. we are looking forward to a new resort; we have stayed at ASMo twice.
Look at all of you lucky people. My dh and I went to All Start Music for our HM. Our reason for it was because of pricing and the fact that we won't really be in our rooms that much. Why pay so much money for a room that you're not going to stay for very long.
We usually stay at the All Stars but for our hm we are spending 4 nights at the AKL, savanah view and 3 nights contemporary, tower view. We cannot wait. My fiance wanted to check out the animals and the AKL dining looks awesome. I wanted to spend some time at the comtemporary so we could just walk to my favorite park. But anywhere in WDW is magical.
Actually Paul and I do spend a lot of time in our room anyway. Having done the parks to death over the years we tend to go to the parks in the morning and then come back to the hotel after lunch for nap and swim and then go back out in the evening.
Before the wedding I am staying at the CBR with my brother's family for a pre-wedding vacation then when my future hubby arrives we are spoiling ourselves and checking into the Yacht Club Concierge - then for honeymoon it's off on the Disney Magic cruise for 7 nights then return to our DVC home of the Beach Club Villas for 6 nights.
We get over 5 weeks vacation time in the UK so we're lucky that we can spend this much time in WDW together.
It is a new resort hotel opening later this year, if you google for it there are a few pictures and some information scattered about the net. From what I have seen it looks like it is going to be really nice.
My hubby and I were booked at POR for our honeymoon, but ended up getting a humongous cash gift at our reception from his grandmother. (She said "you use this for bills, and I'll kill you." lol) So we decided to be silly and transferred to the GF after one night at POR and never looked back!!
We are splittling our stay between the Boardwalk Villas and the Beach Club. We have never stayed at the Beach Club before. I am looking forward swimming in the pool I have always heard so much about!
