I know its being discussed all over. I have been putting plans together to get APs for my daughter and I. The plan would be to take 3-4 trips down for a week each while she is tracked out of school. This is only affordable with APs and most likely staying offsite. I just ran a price check for AoA Little Mermaid rooms. For one week at the end of Sept, the total is ~$1150 without tickets. ~$1900 with tickets. I can get a room at Diamond Resorts Grande Villas for $556 + APs for ~!500 (~$2050 total).
I think WDW is going the route of Universal in only allowing resort guests access to the FP+ system. Universal allows you to purchase a smaller option which is overpriced. I think WDW is marching that slippery slope of making FP+ a Resort Guest benefit only. Maybe I have to look into camping instead. Campsites are only $450 for the week. My daughter would love that, but need to find a way to keep it cool in a tent.
