So it seems like being another 'moderate' without FOLP. Still, it looks a lovely hotel.

I'm surprised it's not going to have FOTL too , it does look lovely, but as a family of 6 there are no options for us ( rooms sleeping 5 as usual!) unless we book 2 rooms which makes it expensive!
Cabana Bay is more affordable and suits our needs for our 4 night stay there next year and it looks great!

yes, I priced it up and it worked out a little more than Cabana bay for our 4 night trip next year, but that was based on 2 adults and 3 children in 1 room, and we have a family suite booked at cabana. i think it was about $100 more?

They don't include the FOLP passes at cabana bay and won't here to make sure that it is still a perk. If they allowed it for these two hotels too, the express queue would end up having a wait like the standby queue. They also wouldn't be able to sell as many on the day or in advance.
The rooms and the hotel look lovely.
