Hi everyone, I am fairly new to these boards. I found them the other day and I think I am very fortunate that I did. I have been enjoying reading this board every chance I get. You all seem to know so much and have offered so many helpful ideas.
I entered to win 2 free Disney coupons on a site the other day and since I've gotten several email messages from the site and a phone call this morning from a lady at Westgate Resorts. She said this would be a 1 bedroom with a king or queen bed (can't remember which) a full living area with a sofa that turns into a bed, a full kitchen with pots and pans. The resort she said has 11 pools, Jacuzzi and she rattled on some much other information that I can't remember right now. Price includes a family pass to wet'n wild, and some boat (gambling) ride. The boat I guess is not open in August though, but she said it's good for a lifetime and is transferable.
My family is planning a trip somewhere around the middle of August. We are just trying to find out when my husband is able to get off and for how long. So I've not booked anything just yet. The woman said a 6 night stay at this resort would be right around 300. It was very low 300's.
I forget exactly how much. Oh yeah and it also included breakfast at the Hard Rock Cafe' I believe. She spoke real quick here so I could have heard that wrong, but I am sure it included 1 breakfast somewhere. The only thing about staying here is we would have to sit through a 90 minute presentation of some sort there. I'm sure they are selling time shares or something. Our last trip I sat through the speal at Disney just because I wanted to, we got nothing out of that one. So I really don't mind this at all.
If anyone has any information about this at all would you please post for me? I've got my heart set on staying at the HRH for the front of the line attractions, but with this one having a full kitchen I thought we could really save some money on breakfast and possibly late night something or other to eat. We have decided that we want to do Disney for 4 days, Universal for 3, and some water park for a day. Blizzard Beach or Water Mania, we aren't sure which is going to offer the better deal yet. With this hotel it would definitely be Water Mania. We'd like to go to Sea World, but live close enough to Sea World in Ohio that we've decided to skip the one in Orlando and concentrate on attractions not available to us here at home.
The real question is. Stay offsite at these Watergate Resorts (which they make sound great) or stay at All Star at Disney and HRH at Universal? I would appreciate any advice that anyone has to offer.
Another question real quick. Is there anywhere on any of these boards that tell you what all the abbreviations mean? There are so many that it gets so hard to understand what everyone is trying to say.
Thanks for all your help!
