Which Moderate?

[Rach&Eric]

Hey everyone, going to Disney from May 7th - 14th, 2011. I got a good deal on Animal Kingdom Lodge but I still feel like it's a lot of money and I'm thinking MAYBE changing to a moderate since it would be more budget friendly and honestly it's pretty out of the way.

It's a first time visit for my fiance and although I've been to Disney a handful of times I've never stayed on-site so I guess you can say it'll be a first for me too :animwink:

Coronado doesn't really interest me so it would be a choice between Caribbean, PORS or POFQ. We won't be renting a car so we'll be relying on buses. I also plan on coming back to the resort for a few afternoon breaks. Any suggestions...advice?

Thanks
Rach

POFQ is very nice, but it lacks nightlife, and also has the smallest beds of all resorts, including values. This was a major setback for us, and we are not big people, 140lbs and 165lbs. It was a nightmare. CBR is great all around, own busses, more relaxing atmosphere, the only setback is the foodcourt, but at least they have one, whereas POFQ does not.

I ended up choosing POFQ....according to portorleans.org, queen size beds are going in with the overhaul of the resort. We'll see when we get there I guess.
