I feel apprehensive about going until at the earliest the end of this year depending on how things go. We'll have to see. I'm first concerned about vaccine development, and containing future outbreaks if/when they resurface.

Hello; I come once again seeking your wisdom. I couldn't find any recent threads regarding these hotels. Does anyone know the pros and cons of staying at each? I understand one (or both?) of them recently underwent renovation. Do they have spas (I didn't see any listed on their sites), and...

It's great to know that the deck is still available. I'll try to get there an hour beforehand and hope I can still find a spot. Thank you, Bairstow, for sharing the savvy Contemporary strategy! If I do pursue it, hopefully, I won't be too tipsy to make it down all the stairwells (I'm just...

Sorry I'm a bit late to the party but I concur. I watched my app yesterday and within 20 minutes of opening, FOP had garnered a 180-minute wait! Unbelievable! I intend to head there first thing in the morning with EMH and just hope for the best since no FP+ were available for it. I'm hoping...

Thank you!

Thank you for the information! It's great to know that the deck is still available. I'll try to get there an hour beforehand and hope I can still find a spot. I've also heard that there are some good views of HEA fireworks from the TTC and Grand Floridian and Poly beaches, although I'm not...

Hello! I had a couple of questions I wasn't able to find answers to through a thread search or through Google, so I thought they might be worth asking here. I've heard there is a 4th-floor balcony at the Contemporary from which one can watch the fireworks with music. Does anyone know how...

Thank you, and thank you for the information! I'm excited about this decision! Sorry; I meant to specify the Contemporary Resort balcony for HEA, not CS. Oops! I thought it might be nice to listen to the soundtrack if it's piped in and watch with a drink, but I wonder if that area gets...

Thank you all so much for the valuable feedback and very sharp points! After reading your comments and a lot of deliberation and elimination, we eventually decided on... (drumroll) Coronado Springs! I remember hearing about it when it first opened in the 90s. It sounded fabulous. After...

Will probably be resort-hopping this day during this last-minute trip. Will anyone else be there?

Hello! My friend and I are going on a trip to the World for a few days later this summer and are undecided on a hotel. Any opinions on these resorts and our little dilemma of indecision would be appreciated! He would like to see the refurbished Pop rooms and swim in the Hippy Dippy pool but...

My mind has absolutely been blown. This is epic! Does anyone feel that Happily Ever After is a bookend to Once Upon A Time in Tokyo? The themes of both emphasize writing your story, and I heard that Once Upon A Time was originally being considered for the Magic Kingdom. I haven't been this...

I finally felt like I had room to breathe when I was out of the park. I explored the pool area and the three towers. I thought they were quite neat, but kept looking for something extra special that would justify the high rates. After chilling with the cat and ducks for a bit, I made my way...

Part IV: A Final Hurrah The following day was my last chance to max out the magic and really soak every last experience in. I arrived at the gate relatively early, and despite the fact that it was a weekday, there was still quite a wait to get in! It was a gorgeous California day and the...

Part III: The Adventure Continues (through the evening) The restaurant had virtually no wait and prices were reasonable. This was a welcome relief. I had a glass of wine with my salad and my stomach was starting to churn. I'm staying away from wines and acidic substances now; I think they...

We awoke early the next morning in the hotel room after having checked in upon our return the previous evening. We had just moved to Pacific Time, but due to fatigue from the previous day, ended up just lying in bed for a while before heading to the pool for a continental breakfast of bagels...

There stood the Antebellum mansion. We could actually feel ourselves descending on the elevator (so much fun in the dark with everyone) and the detail in the queue kept me on my toes. Next, since it was nearby, we absolutely had to get ourselves on Pirates. I remember loving it in 2001 and...

Part II: Through the Gates Inching closer to the train station, I stared at the Disneyland Railroad, wishing it were in operation but hoping I'd make it back to see its return. I then found myself on Main Street, just as I had (vaguely) remembered it from fifteen years ago. This time, I paid...

I knew that this report would be overdue; I've finally found a bit of time to put it all together! Thanks again for all the advice. I had been dreaming of a trip like this for years and finally decided to go for it a month prior to the trip after I found myself craving it and kicking myself...
