Hello fellow resort changers
.
WDWKOOK suggested I come over to this thread as I admitted over on the CL thread that I, too, am a resort changer
. We have been going to Disney since 2001 and I have never changed resorts for any trip......until I booked our trip for December 2010
. I was down in January for a girls weekend and booked a BB......only to come home and start second guessing the resort I chose and I ended up changing ALOT before I finally decided about 2 months out what to stick with
. Then after returning home from that trip, I received a pin code and booked for this December.....and you guessed it......the resort changing started up again
. I originally booked WL CL......only to switch to GF SL......which then turned to Poly GV......which (as of right now), is Poly GV CL
. I must say, though, that one of the reasons for me changing to the Poly is we just LOVE the resort
. We've only stayed there one time, but that was enough to get us hooked
. The GF is a great resort and my DH and both DSs thought it was a nice resort and would stay there again, but the Poly is their fav and asked if I would change
. So there is it.......we are now booked for Poly GV CL, although after seeing all the great view pics over on the CL thread, I am considering looking into switching to LV CL
.
kaffinito.....I know exactly what you mean about missing the Poly to stay somewhere else. When we stayed at the GF this past December, we ate at Ohana and the minute we walked into the Poly lobby, I missed it!!!! The GF is a great resort, but there's just something about the Poly that gets us......I love the smell of the lobby and the beautiful tropical surroundings
. In December, we stayed 2 nights at AKL prior to checking into the GF and I didn't find myself missing the Poly all that much for those 2 days......but then again we did AK 1 day and didn't really get to the MK area until we changed resorts.....so that probably had something to do with it
.
hstrickland.....We tried the DlxDDP on our last trip and LOVED it!!!! But with CL I'm wondering if it will be too much
. I didn't book CL for assistance with planning or anything like that......I have just wanted to try the CL there and I like the location of the Hawaii building......being right there by the volcano pool and beach
. Plus as far as the dining plan, I like having everything paid for ahead of time. I know my oldest DS won't get too much out of the food offerings as he's pretty picky; but the rest of us might....at least for snacking and drinks
. But I'm having a hard time downgrading the DlxDDP to regular DDP because we really liked the deluxe plan
. Would you do DlxDDP with CL again or was it really way too much and not something you would consider again???
