Polynesian or Beach Club for January

[Surfside]

Trying to decide on either Polynesian or Beach Club for January stay. We stayed at BC a few years ago and loved it. The bus rides to MK/AK were the only negatives. We have never stayed at Polynesian and think we would enjoy the Hawaiian theme. However, with our plan this year we want to do 2 days at Hollywood Studios for DS who loves Star Wars. Then one day each in MK, AK, and Epcot. We are staying 5 nights. DD is really wanting a breakfast with Stitch too, but DH loves back entrance to Epcot. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Ok. Just got back from a split stay that involved being at both those properties! It was DVC, bit pretty much the same fist. Transportation, it is tough to beat the Poly. You can take a boat or monorail to MK and even short walk to the transportation center to monorail it to Epcot. The theme and rooms are very different from BC, Its tiki...its dark, maybe a little too dark in the rooms. The main pool is nice bit it isn't on the level with BC for sure, but its quiet pool is pretty great. I say though try it. With that Stitch breakfast being important it will be nice, and honestly I found getting to HS from BC a bit of a pain. You have to walk or boat and the boat can take awhile of you just miss it, so we ended up hoofing it, not a terrible walk, but not great either.
