Which building at the Grand?

[Networth]

Hello all!

First time staying at the Grand Floridian. I stayed many times as a child at the Contempory Tower, but I took my first steps as a baby in the Grand Floridian resort . My girlfriend and I our coming down the 12-19th of December, she thinks we are staying at a moderator (the first of many surprises.) Like I said its a week long trip her first time on property and first time visiting anything but the Magic Kingdom when she was a child. We have reservations that first night at V&A's, which is where I will be popping the question :cool1: Now my question is what building(s) should I request?

And any other GF tips/tricks/ that maybe helpful for this once in a lifetime trip. Thanks guys enjoy your vacations! and if you happen to be at the Grand Dec 12-19th and see an ecstatic couple walking by feel free to say hi.

Should you be able to get in the main building up on a concierge floor - that would be great. Otherwise I'd try to get a lagoon view room, top floor, on any building along the lagoon. Castle views are great!.

Top floor rooms are very nice with vaulted ceiling but are slightly smaller and have balconies you have to stand at to see. If you want club level you cant beat the views and relaxation from the upper floors in the main building. be careful however as most rooms that face the poly and the beach now have their view blocked by the dvc. The main building is also very expensive. The sugar loaf allso offers greatviews of the courtyard or marina. Theyhave full club level in this building as well at about 150$ less per night. For a llagoon view room I personally love the end magic kingdom view rooms at the couch key. most have direct unobstructed veiws of the magic kingdom and the fireworks.
