Hello
This is my first post here, although I have read this forum for months previous to our last trip to WDW. We just returned from a stay in Orlando where we went to MK for one day, then toured the monorail resorts to get a better idea of where we would stay for our big trip planned for early December 2017. I know that is still far away but we are trying to set up a budget so we know how much to set aside each month.
I feel like I have read everything possible about my different options, and have settled on a few to pick from. We would like to stay at either Poly or WL (or a possible split stay). Our trip will be about a week long, and it will be me, dh and ds who will be almost 3. I know renting points can save you some serious money, but there are a few things holding me back.
My main questions are:
1. Whats the big difference between the villa studios and a standard room functionally/aesthetically?
2. Is it possible to split stay on rented points? Is it pretty easy to do the split stay once you are there (baggage, etc)?
3. Are the savings huge renting points vs a standard room discount (which I think can be close to 25-30% for the week we are going, but its hard to determine this far out!)?
Any input is appreciated!
