which resort for a LARGE group?

[Alysa]

Just back and statring to plan the next trip - going with lots of family this time (so far 13 confirmed, 10- 22 undecided). We have narrowed it down to Beach Club, Saratoga Springs or Wildreness Lodge. We have stayed at AKL, GF, POR, OKW and BW. Looking for somthing that has great Christmas decor, great customer service (CM's), good transportation and kitchens... Any advice would be wonderful - thanks in advance!

P.S. If you have another suggestion that would be great too!

I personally think you would enjoy any of those resorts. Haven't seen SS with Christmas decorations yet, but the other 2 are beautiful.

You'll have different experiences at any of them. SS is close to DD. There is so much to do on the BW that the BC would be great, plus you can walk or take a boat to EPCOT & MGM. WL is very convenient to MK by boat & it is a beautiful, relaxing resort.

My personal preference would be an EPCOT resort, so I would suggest renting points from a DVC owner for either the BC or the BW.

Have fun planning - I hope you have a great time when you get there!

If you have a wide age group I would agree with the BC/BW recommendation. We have been on many extended family trips at Cont and YC/BC. The YC/BC trips were a little better because the teens & young adults with no kids had more options. There are lots of restaurant choices - BW, Epcot, YC/BC. Easy access to MGM and Epcot. Great pool - SAB.


I think you will have a great time at any resort, but I would try for an Epcot resort.
