As I read your post, Your family is going down a month latter, correct? Well then, I would consider a few things. Will this be your DS's first trip to WDW? If yes, I would wait and go with your DH then so he can enjoy the trip too. Also I would ask yourself if you have traveled alone with him before? How did he do? Is he a high needs or a laid back kid? If this will not be his first trip, and you are used to doing things alone with him, a short child centered trip might be fun. I would without a doubt stay on the monorail route, and might pick the contemporary so you could even walk to MK. If that is not in the budget, stay at the nicest on site resort you can afford. Having room service would be great in case your DS needs an early night and you want to nice meal. Let us know what you decide and have a fun trip whenever you go.
