Big, Stupid, Crazy Dilemma!

[bethymouse]

Hi my Disney friends!
We've always wanted to stay @ Beach Club or BW or GF! ( Oh- maybe just me). If my husband can change his dates for vacation ( that would eliminate my taking off a teacher day dilemma), and our flights can be changed w/o fee ( I only have until April 25), I'd rather take the great deal of a 6 night 7 day vacation all inclusive of course than just a 5 nights 6 day!
Which resort would you choose?
Thanks everyone for your advice!

Always wanted to stay at GF as well but I have always tended to stay towards the more kid friendly areas. Wish I was in your shoes! Sorry I am no help I think all would be amazing. I sure you will get plenty of advice from ones that have stayed there. Have an awesome trip.

Beach Club for sure!!! But that's just me... I also love BW!! If you can change and not have to worry about school days... I would say go for it!! So much less stress!! What would your new dates be?

Thanks Alley. For some reason I'm second guessing myself. I am just hoping that whatever we choose, it'll be the best ever because I'm not sure if we'll go back in 2014.

That's what you thought this year remember!!

June 13-19. The deal was great! I mean we already paid $4,198.24. Beach Club would be $5,280.26. BWI would be $4,906.94! GF of course is $5,426.66, and the BW Villas ( probably hubby's choice) is the most of course @ $ 5,686.58. Just a matter of talking to hubby. He's still sleeping ( night job).

Very true! The only way I think though I can convince hubby to change is to say we won't be going in 2014. Unless.... a great bounce back offer comes about! LOL.

You would feel so much better if you did not have to stress about school!!

Definitely Beach Club! It's one of my favorites and you'll be sure to love it!! Also, the pool is pretty incredible.

Oh my goodness yes! That's so true! Phew! It would be nice not to have to worry about that!

Thanks. That's what I'm leaning towards. We wanted to go Christmas 2014 to Beach club, so perhaps this might be a good time. Fingers crossed.

Never stayed at BC, but BW is amazing because of the environment on the Boardwalk, and the walking distance to Epcot and Hollywood Studios. BC is right there so the only difference is which appeals to you more. When I stayed at GF i was very young, 10 or so, but remember it like yesterday and it is an amazing hotel, just looking back now I much rather stay at BW.

Did I mention I would be there... on the 18th!

OMG! Help me convince my hubby please! Only thing holding us back is the possible penalty fee for rebooking a flight. Also- if hubby is able to get those days off instead. I had mentioned it before when the Monstrous Summer discounts came out, and he had said he didn't think so. But, I will try again!

Good luck.. I know you would be so much happier not having to worry about school. Will you be able to save those days if you do not take them off... Wont that save you?

 

[disneysince71]

I'll keep you posted.

Have you looked at DVC? Since you stay in the Deluxe Hotels it might save you... I know we have been happy with it...

Not really a BWI fan, so that's out.

Do LOVE the Beach Club, but crappy balconies, so that's out.

Guess I'm going GF.

(This is actually how I do my own selecting, by process of elimination, lol.)

I love GF for the ambience of it all. Haven't stayed there for a long time now but make sure to visit every time we go to wdw. We always have a meal there and I just sit in the lobby and listen to the music play. I could sit there all day...I guess the park where you go the most (in my case MK) would be a good way of deciding where to stay.

 

[bethymouse]

I love GF too, but hubby thinks it's too "stuffy"!
