The services were great, but the rooms were small for a family of 4. The transportation around the parks & whole Disney property was impressive with the Skyliner & the bus service to wherever you wanted to go. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest difference from this Am's run and 12Z yesterday, that I noticed, was the coastal being slower which allows it to miss the colder air retreating from PA. At that same time stamp yesterday the low was encroaching upon SE PA instead of just leaving Pedro. Cold in before it gets here and cold air after it leaves.

I have stayed at all 3 of the resorts at that level and the rooms are indeed small. Two beds and little room to maneuver around them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we stayed, we went to Pop Music and Sports, many years ago and I agree the rooms were small, but I've always said I don't go to Disney to stay in the rooms, I just need a place to crash with the kids. Hope you had good weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were the first family in the room that we were assigned. We were in the 1960s buildings. Our daughter was just 2 in 2004 and she loved the Hippy Dippy Pool. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly not cold tonight on meso's after only getting mid to upper 40's for highs. A warm front tailing off the low in Cananda swings through before the trailing cold front sets us cold again Wed evening. Seems like constant snow today in the Laurels.

Thanks for correcting me. It's tomorrow night that we're likely to get a freeze.

All onsite except for one. That one was one more than necessary, I vowed never to stay off property again. I felt like I had to be in the "bubble" as they refer to it to enjoy the magic fully. Having said that...now that our kids are all adults and starting their families...we've talked about getting an offsite rental home so that we can all be together on future trips.

Having lived near Orlando for 15 years I have a perspective that one should know what Orlando really is before staying off site (like you surely do with so many trips.) Lot's of people go to Disney and Bubble it which allows them to come away thinking Florida is the greatest place ever. Then there are people who stay on what some would call moderate hotels along maybe 192 and they come away exhausted thinking Florida is a big tourist trap with lots of dangerous people hanging around.

Our daughter's future in laws live in Wyndemere. We got to spend some time with them back in December while we were down at Universal. They shared a lot about the central FL experience.

Atomixwx Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Great. I'll have to come back here in a few years when I get dragged to Disney. I have family in St Pete. After several vacations there, which included a trip to Disney and several trips to Cocoa Beach, I left Florida thinking it was just alligators and Jews.
