Planning Anniversary!

[10Scoot]

I am trying to plan my 5th wedding anniversary. I want to plan a weekend trip and stay at a deluxe hotel that we have never stayed at before. My wife and I got engaged at the Poly, so I thought about staying at the Grand Floridian this trip. We have never stayed there before, but I read online that the Grand Floridian has a lot of refurbs going on now. I am not considering the Animal Kingdom Lodge with the view of the Savannah. Are there any other suggestions? Would the Grand Floridian still be a good place to go even with the refurbs?

Any input would be appreciated!

I would stick w/ the POLY. Make it a tradition.
If you want to try something new, then stay at Bay Lake Tower or the Contemporary Theme Park Tower View.

Im with bethymouse on this one go back to the Poly. My wife and I will celebrate our anniversary at WDW next month. I purposely made ADR's for CRT because that is where we got engaged three years ago to the day. But my wife is the sentimental sort and I know this is what she'd want.

I missed typed on the post. I am considering the Animal Kingdom Lodge with the view of the Savannah. What would you guys do?

Thanks for your suggestions ahead of time!

My husband & I honeymooned at the Poly & loved it! We spent our 1st anniversary at the Boardwalk, and loved it even more. It's a very romantic resort - and it's our favorite. You can walk to Epcot, Hollywood Studios & Fantasia Gardens minigolf. You'd take a bus to AK & MK. I recommend checking it out. =-)

I don't know much about the refurbs at GF, but in my experience refurbs are usually well blended into the scenery. I've never been extremely bothered by any of them. It's a beautiful resort, as is the Poly, and I think you'd have a great time at either one of these.

I vote for the AKL! Its is so relaxing sitting on the little porch watching the animals. A great couple place!
