Totally torn between resorts.

POR - Boat link to Disney Springs, cheaper than SSR, smaller, amazing Trip Advisor reviews.
SSR - Walking distance to Disney Springs, deluxe resort, big rooms

Essentially I'm at location vs theming and I can't choose so it may have to come down to price...

HELP!
I feel your pain, I think I've just decided contemporary isnt for us after watching a video walk through... The location is amazing but to me it had nothing much going for it for the price difference! X

Thinking about the doubletree for a planned trip June 2017. Just can't imagine a trip without the village inn that's opposite it... Our last three trips all relied on it for cheap breakfasts and dinners... And maybe a slice or five of pie.

Staying on I drive is a double edged sword. More choice... But... More choice! Keep wondering whether to change the location up, go universal end or in the middle. Need to have a look on google earth, make sure the village inn is still where I think it is!

Booked September 2017 hoping the weather will be better than the last two times we went. Especially the last time when it rained 60% of the time and Indiana Jones got cancelled the 3 times when we went to see it.

We did the first 2 weeks of October 2015 and had hardly any rain. My daughter was disappointed because we'd told her about the incredible storms and she didn't get to see one. 2 days in the humidity dropped too and the weather was pretty much perfect.

We're looking to go December 2017 (so in my head I'm telling myself we go next year even though in reality its almost 2 years away!)

To get free DDP we'd need to book on the USA site for stays in December as the UK free DPP doesn't cover stays in December, is that right? And we're looking April time for the USA free DPP offer to come out?

We did villa last time and probably looking for split stay with Disney and I-drive this time I think if we can get free DDP. I did love the villa though so could go down that route too.

Ooh exciting!

We have done all types of year the last time was June and then October. We found October cold but the locals did say it wasn't normally that cold.
