We're home from our first WBC stay! We have always stayed at a Disney resort but we were traveling with another family and staying in the same room/unit was a must for us, so that put Disney WAY out of our budget. We used Ebay to get an amazing rate ($1,500/7 nights) in a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom Presidential Suite. The suite was HUGE and we LOVED having our own washer and dryer. The full kitchen and dining area was great since we at 2 meals a day in the unit. We had the BEST views from Tower 3 – we could see the Epcot ball from our balcony, as well as the Illuminations fireworks AND the Frozen fireworks! We had one little problem… cockroaches! They weren’t swarming the place, but they were HUGE. We smashed one and hoped that was it... but the next day we saw 2 more, so we called the front desk. They sprayed the unit while we were at the park and we didn’t see another one for the rest of the stay. We tried all of the pools and the kids loved the splash park and lazy river and the slides. I will say that our unit was in need of a refurb. Everything looked pretty beat up. It didn't bother me, but I know some people we curious about refurbs -- I can tell you tower 3 (at least on the 9th floor) hasn't been touched.
I'm unsure if we'll go off site again, driving to and from MK/TTC was enough to make me lose it (waited over 40 mins to get on a ferry to the TTC and that was BEFORE Wishes). If we do ever go off site again we'll be coming back to WBC.
We used Uber to get to and from Epcot for a date night and had no issues except the drivers seemed annoyed that we were going to the parks. I guess the fares aren't worth the hassle? We got a few delines before someone accepted our route and that has never happened to us before.
