    Ohana

    Me and the family are headed down to see some family in Tampa and we’re wondering if the ohana dinner was the same as before the renovations. We weren’t able to go on our last trip and we’re hoping to grab a meal on the way through.

    I need some Ohana

    I'm kind of confused why some of the buffet style restaurants around the parks are opening and not others. I see the Crystal Palace is opening middle of December. I was really hoping by Christmas time more places would be available. Ohana being our families favorite. I don't see any reason why...

    Birthday help

    We decided to book a trip over the week of Christmas this year. With the way things were this year we ended up booking later than we usually do. We just planned on eating quick service and at our hotel throughout the week. Our daughter surprised us with a request for her birthday. She would like...

    Family of 5 in All Stars?

    We’ve stayed at all-star music a few years ago with a family of 5. We did the same as you. Hit the parks and the pool hard and used the room to shower and crash. Our last trip this last summer we stayed at Caribbean Beach. The rooms were no different. Save the money and stay at the values. They...

    Thoughts on our rough plan for parks, dining, and other special items

    Just remember to roll with it. Mike Tyson once said “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth. “ Not everything you plan will work out. Be willing to roll with the punches and enjoy the moment. Your plan looks great. A lot of times the unexpected things that happen are the moments...

    Caribbean Beach Renovation

    As of last week there were stops at Aruba, port aue prince, Trinidad North and South and Jamaica. There is also an inter resort shuttle so you don’t need to drag your bag a half mile back to the check in

    Caribbean Beach Renovation

    The service to the resort was fine. A bus approximately every 20 minutes. There are 5 stops throughout the resort. A little longer on the bus but a shorter walk to the room. The only issue we noticed was the last stop had a hard time picking up people in the morning for MK. By the time they got...

    Caribbean Beach Renovation

    My family stayed there from 8-18 til 8-25. The pool is fine. Everything else is behind scrum and unavailable to the public. The best I can tell you is to call the resort itself and ask for an estimated finish date. Working construction myself and knowing how busy they are around the holidays my...

    Caribbean Beach Renovation

    Currently the food court is a tent. Albeit a very nice tent. It also features a breakfast and dinner buffet for a quick service credit. For all of the complaints I have heard about the resort it wasn’t bad. Most of the construction is away from the resort and hidden from view.

    Resort choices

    I have stayed at both with a family of 5. I would much rather stay at AoA. Caribbean seemed too spread out and disjointed. Some complain that the values are too noisy. I actually think it makes the resort feel a bit more alive. Themeing is also better.

    News Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2018

    I attended the 8/24 party last night and have to say that I will probably never attend another. There were more people there last night than there were on Thursday. The lines for characters were 2+ hours long. Kind of a problem when the event is 5 hours long. We also wanted to burn up the rest...

    MNSSHP or Sanaa?

    We have decided to skip Sanaa. Booked Mama Melroses for lunch and back to the hotel to put on costumes for adult trick or treating. I will continue to check to see if any times open up at Sanaa.

    MNSSHP or Sanaa?

    Our trip is in one week. We have looked at other days and the only times that seem available are 9 pm or later. Has anybody had luck calling the reservation line and getting squeezed in?

    MNSSHP or Sanaa?

    We both really wanted to eat at Sanaa this time around and got dinner reservations at a nice time. Then the schedule for MNSSHP came out and we realized that it was on the same night. Which one would you rather do?

    Which hotel with little ones?

    AoA is amazing for young children. Characters everywhere and themed room areas. Transportation is available everywhere around the property. Just make sure to book plenty of character meals. My kids loved them when they were younger.

    Typhoon Lagoon vs. Volcano Bay. Who is winning?

    Noah’s ark is the biggest in town and is also the best. Mt Olympus is good to but they have recently had some issues with some of the guests. There are also some indoor water parks that are good. Kalahari and great wolf are great for a winter weekend.

    Typhoon Lagoon vs. Volcano Bay. Who is winning?

    We hit up TL last time down and were disappointed. The only thing that impressed me was the wave pool. There are multiple water parks in the Wisconsin Dells that I would consider better and cheaper than TL.
