WL - Is the deluxe rooms worth it?

[mommykds]

Ok resort rethinking going on here...Are the deluxe rooms (the ones that can have 5 people in a room) worth it? Anyone get a good AP rate on those rooms?

If you really need the divided room then the deluxe room works great. My youngest DD would not sleep in the same room as us as a baby so this room was a lifesaver when she was 8 months old.
If it is just a concern for a room that sleeps 5 then I do not think these rooms are worth it. We received a AAA discount when we went and I know that I could have gotten a regular room at the Poly or GF for much less using a code and had almost as much space. I didn't think the room felt any bigger than a regular room at the GF in fact both rooms in the deluxe felt cramped.

What about a 1br at VWL? We stayed there in Feb and we liked having the two rooms. The full kitchen and washer/dryer were really nice. I'm not positive but I think our AP rate was cheaper for the 1br than what they were asking for the WL deluxe. You could also do the Fort Wilderness cabins if you are wanting a seperate bedroom.
