Having done 2 trips at OKW with free DDP they(Lily & family) are wanting to try offsite dining but after the travelling times yesterday it got us thinking about it a little more and is worth paying the extra (approx £40/nt, tips factored in) to stay at least part of the trip back at OKW again.Im sure onsite is perfect if you only want to do Disney .... Two weeks at the big four and the two water parks would blow DHs mind! Do you not feel you're wasting value by stepping offsite? Split stay may work but for us 30-40 mins each way from Westside is so worth it when we get back to our own pool with a bottle of wine in the evening .. Turns a hectic holiday into a relaxing one too.
MK is the worst as you can only get to the car park, we then had to wait for a couple of trams for space to get on, wait for 2 monorails, it was just under 1 hour each(55 mins going, 50 mins back) compared to OKW bus its 11 mins each way but then stood waiting for bus and walk from station to turnstile.There are offsite places that are closer - those near the 536 (that becomes Epcot Center Drive) are almost as convenient as OKW if driving. That said even though the free DDP deal keeps increasing in price, my preference would be to go for it again - just have to persuade the rest of the family
Edit - that said Vineland Rd isn't that far away - surprised to hear journey times so long...
Not sure of the completion date for New fatasyland, a big change from August to now so I am sure it won't be that long.Wayne I am so sorry not posted I completely forgot you were going again. I really like the look of fairfied inn and suites. Have been following matts blog u must be very proud of him. Fantasyland looks great. I managed to get a reservation for be my guest when I go in april though were not many times left. Do you know when they are hoping to finish it?
Love the disney bags. I hope you and Karen have a nice romantic time though it probably feels strange without Matt.
Looking forward to the rest of your TR
