    HELP...We can't decide which Studio Villa

    We're a family of 4. DS 14 DD 13. Last Spring Break we rented points and stayed at AKL Jambo House Studio Villa. We fell in LOVE with everything about this resort except the bus service(seemed kind of slow) and the food (it wasn't our taste). So we decided that next trip WL would be the...

    Hoop dee doo or O'Hana? or Neither?

    Completely agree! We love it! From the whole show to the fried chicken, to the cornbread, to the included beer or sangria, to the strawberry shortcake! Now Ohana we enjoy too but completely different experience. Their dessert is my MOST FAVORITE (I have lots of favorites) on property!

    First Time visit Jambo House or Kidani Village

    Underground parking? Hugh? We stayed there 9 nights and never parked anywhere except the parking lot right out front. Didn't even know there was an option. I'd say if the underground is problematic, just don't choose to park under there. There we're no problems in the regular parking lot. ;)

    First Time visit Jambo House or Kidani Village

    We stayed Jambo in DVC last March. We loved it! The whole feel of it is just so GRAND! We walked over to Kidani and swam and looked around one day and we were not impressed. Nothing really wrong with it, but it's just not near as grand. From the Lodge to the pool to the Cantina bars, my...

    EMH at night affecting MK crowds wait times (retry) with poll

    You should do this same poll for evening EMH at the other parks. We've never done any except MK. Always been curious if there were enough rides to make it worth while.

    EMH at night affecting MK crowds wait times (retry) with poll

    Completely agree with this! It has always been our experience (and we're EMH fans) that it is sometimes more crowded than a reg park closing night until 11:30 to midnight. After that the crowd just seems to disappear and the wait times almost ALWAYS don't reflect that. BTMR will keep a 25 to...

    Upgrading to Disney Rewards Visa Premier

    Not sure if this is where this goes. When I start planning a trip one of the first things I look at is how many rewards points I have. Anyway, is there any way to know when the next promo would be offered to upgrade? I know there's been some pretty sweet offerings in the past. Wanting to...

    Vote - Favourite Deluxe Resort

    Congrats on that! I am holding on to hope of March 2016 for our next trip. We just rent thru David's. Leaving in the morning to go skiing. Although I am excited, I'm kind of "taking one for the team" on this one!!

    Vote - Favourite Deluxe Resort

    First of all, it was our first Deluxe stay and the level of service was AMAZING! Upon arrival we we're greeted in the drive thru and our car was unloaded for us! That doesn't happen at value or mod. Went to bell service to get our cart to bring up to our room and they wouldn't LET us. They...

    What to do on non-park days?

    We slept in, enjoyed coffee on the balcony, laid out by the pool, grabbed lunch by the pool, kids did all the afternoon pool games and activities, explored the resort (so many nooks and cranny's). Had a nap, headed to DTD for dinner at Wolfgang's and pin trading. Came back and got in the hot...

    Planning a Trip for the second week in July, Am I crazy?

    Our kids first trip they were 5 and 6. For about 2 months leading up to the trip we started walking around the block to build up their leg strength. It was fun and they would come home from school asking to go walking (fun family time). I was determined if we were going to Disney, I wasn't...

    Attractions that are "shockingly" good

    This is the single attraction I thought of. We went there on our 2nd trip to waste time and so sad we missed it the 1st year. It's been a must do ever since! The other is Maelstrom...may it rest in peace! We didn't expect much being in the World Showcase, had just come of Caballeros. It...

    is there a way to get cheaper room only rates?

    Call and ask if their offering a room only discount for your dates and get a quote. Also, ask if All Star Music is the cheapest value resort at your time of travel. Discounts range from resort to resort.
