Fall brings the Food & Wine Festival to EPCOT - a wonderful event to have at your doorstep! You would also be close to the evening activity on the Boardwalk and within walking distance of many fine restaurants.
Headed to BCV in Dec for our anniv. trip! Just a 5 days as well.. not nearly enough time. We usually go in Nov, been in Oct once, that was great with MNSSHP, the week before Thanksgiving is great too.. good weather, low crowds, and as the resorts and park decorate for Christmas, each day is a treat to see what is new!
We spent our 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th at OKW. For our 30th and 31st we were at FW Campgrounds in our motorhome. Probably will be staying there for many years to come, if she wants to.
I think that depends on what you want out of the trip. If I were going on an anniversary trip with DH, I would like to sit by the pool, on the beach, or in the tub with a perpetual margarita and not have to do anything at all except spend time with DH quietly.
We just got back from an anniversary trip to HH. We splurged on a 1 bedroom just for the 2 of us. It was wonderful! Really didn't want to do the parks, we wanted quiet time together. We sat on the porch and had long talks, used the Jacuzzi, reserved the private dinner from Chef Gordon (Sooooo worth it!!), drove around the Island a bit. very peaceful and loving trip. I highly recommend it. The dinner with Gordon alone was worth the trip.
Also there were balloons and a card in our room when we arrived which was very sweet.
