Hello! I am an avid WDW visitor, but as I've always been a student or teacher, I have only been at Christmas or during summer/spring break. My class is taking a trip through YES in October and I'm trying to plan for the upcoming trip. It's me and two other adults whom I work with, along with 15...

Awesome! Thanks for the info!

I always try to take what they say with a grain of salt. If a place has overwhelmingly bad reviews, I tend to avoid. Overwhelmingly good reviews, I give it a shot. But if people are complaining about minor issues or freak problems that the resort can't necessarily control, I move on. My favorite...

I'm in very early stages. I've been to WDW more times than I can count, but growing up, my family had a timeshare so we always stayed off site. So far, I've stayed at CBR, CR, and YC. Of those, YC wins by a landslide, and like you, my DH only wants to go back there when we go again as a family...

Apologies if this has been posted, as I'm sure it has, but I've scoured and can't find a thread. I'm set to go October this year. Any word on how they're doing on the refurb and how far along they are? I just saw a video of a new room and it looks so nice, you ALMOST forget you're at a value.

I have to disagree with you there. We just stayed CL at YC in June and they booked us at least 3 dining reservations that I could not find on MDE, Be Our Guest included. We also had an issue of being charged twice for a kid's meal and they resolved the issue while we were still at dinner. Maybe...

I may have the unpopular opinion, but I eventually want to stay on every Disney property, so if the opportunity arose for a stay (even if only one night) at the Poly, I'd do it. In fact, we went in June and had only booked 4 nights at the YC. We decided we wanted to add a night and both Poly and...

we recently had this dilemma in early June. We are a family of 4 with two young kids and we're capping off our vacation with an extra night at either Poly or Contemporary. I originally booked Poly, but ultimately went with Contemporary. We saved $80 and that made my decision. I have always...

No, it was the beginning of June (first week). It doesn't seem to matter what time of year I go, I see people who dress up. Props to them for being able to do it, but I just can't and I don't understand how they do and stay comfortable.

I enjoy staying in deluxes. The ease of transportation and proximity to the parks (Esp Epcot area resorts) and the extra space is worth it. We're go to the park first thing and head back to the room at noon people, so it works for us. We also like the nicer pools. I like the dining plan and...

If you go mid to late August, many schools are starting or close to starting, so crowds will be lower. I will say, however, that I know several people who have been in WDW for 4th of July this year and have all been amazed at how low the crowds have been. It will be miserably hot both months. If...

Your Disney inspo is the same as mine, except, DD loved the princesses so much. Watching their interaction made our trip so much more magical than any other trip I had taken prior to kids.

I'd love to try Poly. Not sure the club level price tag there will fit our budget. But, I'll keep an eye out.

We loved YC. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Monorail hopping I had forgotten about the security measures, so we had our bags checked to head over to the Poly. I had been really excited about trying a Lapu Lapu and the Spiky Pineapple. We also decided we were going to try the BBQ nachos at Captain Cooks which did not disappoint. We...

Day 6 (our final day in the park) It was actually really sad to pack up and leave YC the next morning. It had felt so much like our home and we had been treated so well that we were actually dreading going to the Contemporary. DH kept giving me a hard time about changing our reservation. I...

Day 5 Night time I didn't get to go back into the parks at night time on our last trip at all, and we hadn't been back on this trip either. DS really needs to be in bed by 7:30, so it makes it tough. On this night, my siblings and parents had decided to head back to the parks to get the most out...

Day 5 continued After Haunted, we headed to the Little Mermaid ride as we had a paper FP for it and it looked as if it may rain. While on Haunted, I had told DH that I found him a FP for Big Thunder for 10:15 (did this while stuck at the same spot), so when we hopped off Ariel, he rushed over to...

He reacted like that to ALL of them. My kids are crazy. Scared of the characters but will ride some of the craziest rides with no fear.

Sorry for the delay! Day 5 Went back to Magic Kingdom. Spoiler alert: we went there for our last day as well. My kids are too young to appreciate Pandora, so we skipped AK this trip. Magic Kingdom is one of my favorite parks, though this trip, I really liked our Epcot and Hollywood days better...
