    925 Aulani / Bay Lake Tower points to Rent / Transfer at $20 pp, valid at all resorts

    I’m looking for a studio or hotel room stay at Aulani from July 16-July 25 (9 nights). I’m Canadian but can do PayPal. Also, the transient tax is per room, per night…is that correct?

    CLOSED Points for Rent/Transfer - 440 SSR $14 & 109 AKV $16

    Our Dates are December 21-January 4. We would prefer to stay at AKL for the entire time in a studio, however we are open to splitting our stay or even staying the whole time at SSR. Never rented points before, however we will be buying DVC in the next few years so we're interested in trying it...

    Attempted rape at Art of Animation

    Don't rethink because one bad thing happened! Honestly, we are here right now staying very close to where this incident happened. I saw the crime scene tape last friday and the csi unit out front. DH and I still feel safe walking around and I feel confident letting our oldest go get drinks from...

    Is all hope lost for BOG

    As a pp said, STALK THE WEBSITE! It really works! I booked my trip 4 months out and initially had some trouble getting some of the ADRs and times I wanted. I now have around a dozen ressies at appropriate, for our family, times. I got BOG for 530 pm at 40 days out! I also snagged an 805 am CRT...

    Is this a good price?

    I would say it's an 'OK' price. You should be able to get flights around $350-400 pp if you keep looking.

    Any Canadian get a PIN????

    Not to brag (or jinx myself) but I seem to get a PIN almost every time they release them. The WDW PIN just expired this past weekend and the DL one either just expired or is about to soon. The unfortunate thing is that I've never been able to use a PIN!!! We are going on our second trip soon...

    Ohana or Whispering Canyon better for 3 year old?

    I would choose ohana between those two. WCC could be over stimulating for a 3 year old, especially if you want him to eat! Also, my kuds just didn't care for the food there. Ohana is quieter at your table, so you can focus on eating, but they also call up the children to do fun activities. I...

    Which combo would you choose?

    I chose the BOG option. My reasons are: Boma is FANTASTIC but Chef Mickeys is...meh... and yak and yeti is similar cuisine to what is available here at home. Whereas, Raglan road is supposed to be awesome (on my list to try), Tusker House is a way better buffet than Chef Mickeys and BOG has...

    Be our guest ????

    BOG dinner was my hardest ressie to get. I booked my vacation at 123 days out and didn't even try to get BOG until 115 days out. Of course, it was all booked up! I tried everyday, several times a day (online and through phone), and then at 101 days out I got a hit for 805. I turned it down and...

    *SIGH* I so wish WDW resorts were a little cheaper!

    I hear you! I know it's Disney, which in itself comes with a premium, but I'm paying about $175/night for my AOA LM room for our upcoming trip (×13 nights = $$$). At that price I would normally get at least 2 QUEEN beds at another hotel. In 2011 I paid $69/night to stay at ASMu. I wish I could...

    airmiles for park tickets

    Airmiles sends a plastic 'card' ticket for WDW. I was able to link mine to MDE easily and use the ticket to select fastpasses. I am pretty sure that you can only book fastpasses for the number of days on your ticket though and you have to wait until you get to disney to upgrade (i could be wrong...

    Ohana - any good

    For me, food is greatly important. For this reason alone I would choose Ohana hands down! :) CM was OK. We went there for breakfast--not dinner--but it's a buffet and buffets are sort of hit or miss...even in WDW! I like that all the food at Ohana is brought around to your table and is served...

    'Ohana flavors

    IMO the only item at O'hana (dinner) that had the slightest pineapple taste was the welcome bread. We didn't get ours until the END of the meal as I think the servers must have been switching shifts and we were too stuffed to eat more than just a small bite! I think your husband will have more...

    Cute shoes for Disney?

    The last time I went to WDW I wore a combination of Dr. Scholl's sandals, and crocs (big, bulky, ugly ones). By day 4 I was strictly wearing the crocs. This time around I didn't want to wear clunky crocs and I knew sandals were out so I went down to the croc store and was pleasantly surprised to...

    Enough of Winter!

    I totally can't wait for our trip! We have 36 days to go, which means we are leaving next month but it really can't come soon enough. The snow is driving me crazy and while we have had some nice temperatures lately, that means that everything is melting and is icy. Our snowbanks are still...

    Anybody from Calgary going down soon?

    I'm not from Calgary but we are flying out of Calgary in 6 weeks. I could bring one back if you want to pick up in Airdrie at my in-laws place. Private message me with a photo if you're interested!
