Excited about Disney

To be honest, I thought we’d use our balcony more than we did.
We love a balcony on holiday, but it was so humid we didn’t enjoy it in Florida. Everyone is different, but in future I won’t base my hotel selection on a balcony for WDW trips |

We rarely use the balcony. Just pop out occasionally for a few minutes. Then remember it’s hot out there and head back into the cool.
I really like both resorts and I’d go for the one that you really fancy but I wouldn’t be swayed guys balcony personally. |

I think I’ve said it before on here, for us it’s no balcony no bookie! we don’t always sit out, but it’s nice to have to doors open and some fresh air, as the price isn’t much different I’d go for the balcony room x

Another vote for the balcony.. After five moderate resorts we stayed at WL and sitting in the balcony first thing in the morning watching the monorail go past and the sunrise was awesome but especially at night having our adult night cap and watching wishes is so beautiful.. Roll on November and back to WL..

Exactly our choice and our decision was no balcony. Having been many many times, not sure we’d get any benefit from a small balcony. we chose POR. Although I’m surprised at that price difference only being £300. I’m sure our quotes were far higher PS Remember the construction going on at AK next year. ... there’s a thread somewhere Edited at 07:23 PM. |

We stayed at OKW last August and quite honestly-the balcony is where my fondest resort memories were made! We had a 2 bed and it was huge-but there’s something about a Disney sunrise, coffee in hand, in the still of the morning. We overlooked the golf course and had the character in flight balloonin view too. Stunning.

It depends. We often stay in a studio at OKW and the balcony is so small it’s not particularly enjoyable to sit out on. They also tend to be at the end of a building with a lot of foliage or near an air con vent. In a 2 bed villa however it was fantastic. We had a great view and the balcony is a good size. It was well shaded and we really enjoyed sitting out.
I wouldn’t choose a hotel for a balcony but if the hotel offered one I’d want it if that makes sense. It also depends on if you have a view. When we stayed at AKL we had a car park view so didn’t spend much time on the balcony. |

Makes absolutely no difference to me. Don't think I've ever used one when we've had it at any resort except to stand out on to take pictures on the first day.
May be different if we had kids and needed somewhere else to sit and chat while they were sleeping but as adults, it's not an issue. |

I'm staying at the Beach Club next year and if I get a room with a balcony I won't use it, I'd rather just sit outside. So not important to me at all.

It would not be part of my decision-making. And definitely not for a Disney holiday, although it might be nice somewhere else for example if I have an ocean to look at.
