Hi everyone! My husband has decided that he needs a vacation this year which I was not expecting. We have a 1 year old, so we figured going to Disney is probably one of the easier options, so yay! The difficulty is that we have decided to go in early May so this is a very last minute trip (I'm used to planning for 6 months! lol)
We've never rented DVC before and although I know it is very last minute and the chances of us getting anything is slim to none, we are heavily considering putting in a request at Davids. I'm looking for some information or advice on which resort would work best (if all were available theoretically). Originally I was really wanting AKL because we are planning on spending at least 2 or 3 days at the resort and there is a lot to do there. However, in doing some searching, we have come to like SSR as well, due to the Disney Springs proximity and the multiple pools. The thing is, we are from Saratoga springs so that decor isn't new, I have recently been reading that the rooms are really rundown, and it does seem far from all of the parks. I'm also wondering if anyone can give me an idea on the size of a SSR studio? My son will be sleeping in a pack n play and we just want to make sure we'll have enough room to separate him a bit from the main sleeping area.
So out of those options, which do you think would work better for my family (DH, myself and DS)? Would there be a better option that is similarly priced to the above 2 resorts? My other two choices would probably be OKW and BWV, but I know nothing about those, so any and all help is appreciated!
Thank you!
