    Windsor Hills pool

    The pool was never busy when we stayed at WH in August a few years ago.

    Windsor Hills Information Station 2.0

    Can an owner or someone staying at WH now/recently tell me about the work being done on the condos? One rental site says the stucco is being worked on and exterior painting, from April to fall 2023 and to expect "loud noise." Is the work only Mon-Fri or Sat 7am-3pm?? TIA.

    Pop Century, All Star Music and $300

    $300 would cover many Uber/Lyft rides (i.e., if you prefer ASMu except for the Skyliner, then I'd go with ASMu and just take a ride share periodically (not to MK tho)).

    Modifying hotel reservation

    I was at the front desk at Yacht Club last August when another guest said we're leaving x days early, and the CM said ok... I asked what the fee was to do that and CM said none. Obviously ymmv.

    Reservation question

    (The rate wouldn't be higher for a particular night if you are staying 1 night instead of 2.) They don't let you just drop a day or days at the beginning or end of a reservation any longer (changed years ago). You have to be able to rebook, basically. Or convince a manager on the phone to grant...

    None of the Moderates Excite Me- Needing Suggestions

    I'd definitely consider Pop, or if you are ok with more walking absolutely AoA Little Mermaid room. A toddler will like the splash/baby pools at each; the Skyliner; very easy to walk between AoA and Pop so you double the food options. The only upside for a moderate - to our family - is the pool...

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Hi - we've stayed standard view at BC several times. There were drawbacks to the room right above the valet and the room looking out over 'pebble beach' - i.e., fantastic view of Stormalong and the lake! So the room facing the valet was much quieter (the pool isn't quiet until about 11pm, and...

    Just finished 14 days in the disney parks. A few comments on DAS and advance DAS

    Last Thursday 4pm or so took about an hour (maybe less) to connect, but once I was on with the CM it took just minutes. DS already is in the digital WDW system as having a DAS (i.e. he had DAS in 2021) so maybe that sped it up. She does take a photo on that video chat fyi for the DAS. Also you...

    If you were considering the Christmas After Hours before pricing came out, are you still going?

    Note that they didn’t even have fireworks during this past Tuesday’s Halloween party (equipment had been damaged earlier in day.) My friends paid $$$ to go, only MK visit that trip (no park hoppers,) so that was a huge bummer. yeah they could watch from TTC next day, but still a bummer.

    Rise of the Resistance... confusion!!

    Hi - I was curious, so tried for bg at 7:02, got bg 95, estimated return was again 360 minutes (with many warnings that it could be earlier or later.) Then I changed our park ressies back to MK. Bg still intact. Doubt we will get to HS today to ride but wanted to give you that additional data...

    Rise of the Resistance... confusion!!

    it said 360 minutes, (it was 7:30am) then one hour to ride once you return. (I’m too lazy to check but iirc our bg called around 3pm.) But the return time they give you when u join the virtual queu at 7am+ is just a guesstimate - they message you again with actual time. E.g. when i got bg 1...

    Rise of the Resistance... confusion!!

    Fwiw I got a boarding group (93, at 7:30am) today. (Low crowds.) Minutes later I changed our park reservation from HS to MK. Went to MK 9am. After 2pm hopped to HS, rode RoR. I.e., changing out park ressie to MK didn‘t cancel our bg.

    What time are they letting guests into MK for 9:00AM opening?

    We went to MK two mornings this past week. Both days we were let in at 9am. Not even a minute early.
