which longhouse at the poly?

[rawley]

I've decided to add an extra night and split my stay. 2 nights at the poly and 4 at the BC in March. My kids are 8,6,4. I've feel like I've read everything, but can't make a decision. (analysis paralysis!) I've been thinking about the samoa or do I just go for it and do a lagoon view? Is the best way to request a room to fax it? Is lagoon view worth the extra $?
Should I do a first and second choice or do I just roll with it because any place will be great? Thank you!!

We only book a garden view room. No matter what season we are there. Last time we had Samoa room 1602, this is ground floor, volcano pool view, considered garden view. I make sure to check in early. I guess if you are in your room alot or spend alot of time looking out your window/patio at the view then it would be worth it. I would rather spend the extra money on souveniers or food. We rarely spend alot of time in the room. Guess it depends how big your pocketbook and budget are.

We stayed there in Samoa. It is in my opinion the most convenient building to everything. It's right in between the two pools, so most rooms have a nice view of either pool. It's a very short walk to the Great Ceremonial House, and also close to the TTC if you want to use transportation from there. I seem to recall some of the rooms in Samoa not having balconies. I would request a room with a balcony in Samoa overlooking the volcano pool.

We liked Tokelau. If you get the one end of the building (sorry I'm not good with East, West etc.) that is near the lagoon you actually get a lagoon view at GV price essentially. It is right next to the quiet pool and a short walk to both TTC and GCH.

Have fun!

We were in Rapa Nui and I liked it as we could walk quickly to the ticket and transportation center and take the express monorail to MK. They also had double sinks and balconies.

That is the North end, I have requested it for up coming stay.

Have you been to Tikimans site?

I have been to Tikiman's site. It is great. That is where I decided I probably can't go wrong with either the Samoa or Tokelau. I actually called tonight and 2 nights with tickets was more than half the price of the 5 night stay w/ tickets at the BC. They wouldn't honor my code it has expired so I have yet to go through with it. Thank you for the wonderful insight!!
