    POR - rooms

    Last September we stayed in the Alligator Bayou section, garden view room. We absolutely loved it!! Another option in the Alligator Bayou section, some of the rooms have a trundle size bed that comes out of the wall. Our daughter was 14 last Fall and she slept comfortably on the bed. She is...

    Early May Trip. Crowded?

    My DH and myself are planning our first trip early May without kids. We have been very fortunate to go as a family several times, and are really looking forward to an "adult" trip. Your children our still young, our kids were 10 & 7 when they went for the first time. I think you should go for...

    Help me decide!

    I have gone in early May and the end of September. I prefer May. I love the weather (it seems to rain less) & absolutely love the Flower & Garden Festival. The crowds were very similar both in September and May. One of the pluses with September is we were able to take advantage of the "free...

    First week in june

    We went the first week in June a few years ago, it was very hot that week. We got to the parks early, did shows/lunch/swam in the afternoons. The crowds were very manageable,we used the fastpass system. That helped out a lot. Just remember to drink lots of water. We had a great time!!

    Recommendation for section at POR

    When we were there last September we had a corner room in Building 26 and LOVED the location. Close enough to the main building, pools, bus stop but far enough away not to be too loud. We are going back this May but have requested a room in Magnolia Bend, only because we have only stayed in...

    The Wave, Breakfast or Lunch?

    I would agree with the above post in regards to breakfast, I would choose Kona Cafe. Although, last September we ate dinner at The Wave, and we all thought it was great.Everyone ordered something different, and no one had any complaints :) We are even thinking of eating there again this Spring...

    Rental Car ?

    We are thinking of planning a quick trip to the World the beginning of May. We would like to rent a car for only one day of our trip to drive to the ocean. Is there any place on site to do this? Is it easy? Or should we rent the car for the entire trip? Thanks for the help!

    Attention everyone that was in WDW in Sept of 2013, Question for you!

    We were at the parks between 9/22 and 9/27. MK on 9/22 was busier than we expected it to be, It rained most of the day on 9/23 so that cleared out the crowds at Epcot. Animal Kingdom wasn't busy at all, Hollywood Studios was manageable with fastpasses. We went to Downtown Disney two different...

    Pool Towels

    Do the resorts still offer towels to use at the pool or should we bring our own? Starting to get things organized for our trip in a week and don't want to pack towels if not necessary. Can hardly believe we will be there in 8 days :), we haven't been there in almost 2 1/2 years!!! Can hardly...

    Magic Band/FP+ system ?

    I just got off the phone with a CM, he told me that all of the FP machines have been replaced and are RFID compatible. I will still be able to use the FP+ system and take advantage of FP while at the parks. He said all I have to do is swipe my Magic Band and I will receive the FP return time. He...

    Magic Band/FP+ system ?

    Do you know if I can opt out of getting the Magic Band? We are traveling with my sister and her family and they do not have that option. If my family doesn't receive Magic Bands then I am assuming we can continue to use the old fastpass machines......I would like to get the fastpasses at the...

    Magic Band/FP+ system ?

    This morning I was just able to customize magic bands for our upcoming trip. I made FP+ times this past weekend. My question is: I know that during the testing phase that we are supposed to be able to utilize the FP+ system and still use the regular FP machines in the park, are the machines now...

    Selected for Fastpass+?

    I thought if you chose to use the new FP+ system, that you were not allowed to use the paper fast passes in the park. That you were then limited to the 3 FP for the day? It would be great if you could still use both....

    Sci Fi or Mama Melroses?

    We are trying to decide if we should eat at the Sci Fi (we have eaten there twice before) or try Mama Melroses? We are on the DDP and wondering if you could order a shake at the Sci Fi as your beverage? or would it be considered your dessert? We have never been to Mama Melroses, and are thinking...

    Fast Pass + ?

    My family and I are going to be in Disney Sept. 21-28. I was listening to a WDW podcast and they were discussing the new fast pass system. If I understand correctly you will be allowed to "reserve" 2-3 fast pass attractions up to 60 days prior to your arrival. My ? is, if you participate in the...
