I just found out that I can stay at por for $600 less than all star family suites with the discounts. Is the square ft worth it? We have stayed In the suites our last three trips. I have 16 yo triplets. Will por be big enough? We don't spend much time in the room

If money is not tight. I would probably go with the suites.

We have done the party of 5 in PORS more times than I can count. While it is manageable, it is tight. I would often get up about an hour before the rest of my family, get ready and then vacate the room to ease the crampness.

With the suites, it was much easier. The extra bathroom and a bedroom with a door on it made things much easier.

Family vote. We decided to stay in the Suites again. The savings isn't worth the loss of square footage :). I only wish there were family suites in the moderate range!

There are...The cabins at Ft Wilderness.

Off the top of my head they sleep 6, have a full kitchen and an outside deck. The only thing they lack is the second bathroom.

With a discount they can often be had for less than a full price value suite.

I did save $600 on the suites. Think I will stay with the tried and true :). Until I can afford a bungalow at the Poly!

And since you have 16 year old triplets (!), the extra bathroom is since, plus the kitchenette and the "we can lock ourselves in the bedroom and maybe get some peace and quiet from the triplets" bedroom, lol.

16 year old triplets. Wow. Teenage angst times three.

However, they are basically a single wide trailer with one bedroom and a very small bathroom. But I would put the triplets in the bedroom (they can fight over who gets to sleep in the top bunk) and take the murphy bed in the living room; believe it or not, it's very comfortable. Never understood why the hair dryer is in the bedroom, instead of the bathroom. And the door from the bedroom going outside is just one way - you can go out, but you cannot come back in. So those 16 year old triplets can sneak out AFTER you've fallen asleep, but they will have to come back in through the living room, waking you up and getting caught. ;)
