    Water pageant

    For me it's a must do. Absolutely love it. I have seen it from several locations and did see it once on a fireworks cruise, that was amazing.

    Returning to Disney World after 5 year hiatus... what to expect?

    You should expect to have a great time. For me a trip to WDW has always required planning (or maybe I just love to plan and get all geeked out over spreadsheets). Dining reservations and fastpass scheduling ahead of time really works well for us. Do your'homework' on what has changed at WDW in...

    Deluxe Studio at Poly: Too good to be true? Problem with the ferry whistle?

    Stayed in Moorea (DVC), lagoon side last October for a week, 2nd floor. Loved the view and everything about the resort, it was our first stay at the Poly. The ferry whistles were never an issue. I would certainly recommend staying there.

    Experience Using Touring Plans Room Request

    Used the Touring Plans fax request option for the first time last October for staying at the Poly (DVC). We got what we wanted. We did on-line check in. Everything worked great.Going again this October staying at BLT and will be using the Touring Plans fax request again.

    Never been to the park for more than a day

    In addition to the excellent advice/suggestions above I would suggest the Hoop De Do Revue we really enjoy it and do it almost every trip. One night try and catch the Electrical Water Pageant on the Seven Seas Lagoon/Bay Lake, not the end of the world if you miss it but it does have a cult...

    Saratoga Springs -- senses spa question(or GrandFloridian)

    My wife spent four hours at Senses at the GF being massaged and pampered during our October 2015 trip and she loved it. She said she wouldn't do the big package again but will definitely be doing the massage part again. We go back in October 2016 for a week and she is planning on 2 - 80 minute...

    I booked my dining reservations today! SO EXCITED!

    Yesterday was our 180 day mark too! Ohana's is great as is BOG, can't go wrong with those choices. We've eaten twice at Raglan Road and the wife loves it but I am not a fan of the food but we both really enjoy the entertainment that is usually there and the general atmosphere is fun. California...

    Need some advice on resort Change

    I would recommend WL. We have stayed there several times and it was great. The hotel itself and the pool are terrific, you could spend hours just in the lobby in a rocking chair checking everything out. The boat ride to the MK is wonderful and of course the Electrical Water Pageant is a must see...

    1st Stay @ Poly

    Terrific pictures, sorry you had some noise issues. We stayed for a week last October in Moorea, lake view, 2nd floor and didn't encounter any problems with noise. It was our first stay at the Poly but won't be our last. Never eaten at Kona just not a place that appeals to us. Overall the staff...

    Splitsville

    We went on a Saturday night in October last year. We had reservations for 7:00 PM and there was a good crowd but it didn't seem like walk ups were a problem. Their seating capacity is significant. We didn't bowl, just ate. Most of the bowlers seemed to be young teens with little experience...

    Beach club or Poly for first time deluxe

    Our last trip we stayed at the Poly (DVC) for the first time. Visited the resort before and never really understood the attachment so many have for the resort. I do now understand the love for the Poly. Watching Wishes and the EWP from our balcony was something special. The view in general is...

    Via Napoli - never been and need some outside perspectives

    Went to Via Napoli for the first time end of October, had a pizza and thought it was very good. It was a Friday night during F&W so it was crazy busy but we were seated quickly and our food came quickly. Service was very good. Plan on going again. Seeing the ovens is pretty neat. The only thing...

    Polynesian DVC Disappointment

    First stay at the Poly ever, October 23-31, DVC Villas, Moorea lake view, requested 3rd floor, got the 2nd floor. We actually enjoyed seeing the bungalows, no problem with fireworks viewing. I always prefer to watch the EWP from the beach no matter which resort I watch from so not a problem for...

    AKL Experiences?

    We had a 1 bedroom in Kidani with a beautiful savanna view. I got up every morning and had my coffee on our balcony just watching the animals for an hour or more. It was one of the most relaxing trips we ever took. Be sure and take time to explore the resort, lots to see and do there.

    Brilliant New Disneyside Ad

    Thanks very much for posting this, I think it is terrific. I immediately texted my daughter to make sure she watches it. On the down side I am watching this at work and now am hoping nobody stops by my office in the next few minutes and asks why a 57 year old guy is tearing up and grinning like...

    Going from Moderate to Deluxe... The trip of my dreams! Help!

    WL is terrific, stayed there several times and really enjoyed it. We really enjoy using the boats for transportation. In addition to the previous comments I would add you should plan on spending some time just sitting in the lobby in a rocking chair and taking in all the details in the lobby...
