Ok..so I have questions. I came to the expert thread I started going through all the pages...but it is going to take me all day So I thought I would just ask.
Basically my story is that we have a ressie at a deluxe resort in disney booked with free dining. Trying to get that was crazy.. nothing was open. We have a family of 5(ages 16, 11, 8) so have less choice where we stay. When I finally got a ressie the cost was really high. We decided this was not something we wanted to spend even with free dining. I started pricing out offsite and felt the value was better not to mention getting the upscale hotel that I would want. For some it's just a place to lay there head. For my family, the hotel is part of the vacation. I have been given many suggestions and WBC is one that keeps coming up. My 16 year old is very sad not to have the Disney "feel". I was sad to lose the dining and to be able to eat at all the restaurants and lose a little bit of the "feel" also. I have been told that WBC would be a good choice to help remedy that.
Sooooo I have seen a lot of people go through vacation strategy. I don't know them so of course it makes me nervous. I have been told not to go on the wyndham website to book..Where are places that I could try and book a room that you can suggest as reputable. I don't want to do anything with ebay at all.
It's my vacation...so Im not really into cooking except breakfast. Where do you guys go to eat? Do you feel the Disney magic still? Please make me feel better about considering WBC I have to make a decision fairly quickly or I won't have any place to stay!! hahaha.
We are coming before Thanksgiving in November. I am thinking this is a place I would want. When the parks close, we aren't necessarily going straight back to our rooms to sleep. We usually like to unwind. My kids enjoy watching tv or reading ...In a hotel room it is always hard. I can only watch so much Disney channel or spongebob. So it will be nice to be able to have adult time and a couple of drinks.
Thank you so much for any advice and help.
