    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    We actually researched this for a couple of years and were finally in a position to make the purchase. I wouldn't have changed a thing about our process, but appreciate you trying to guess what I was actually thinking and feeling.

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    Our first stay was at BWV in a 2BR - we had previous year's points banked and loved it. OKW, SSR and Poly were all studios. We liked Poly a lot, OKW was nice, would stay there again and SSR was not for us.

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    This has also been in the back of my mind. Prices are rising and my Spidey senses have been tingling. I’m no expert and have zero ability to time market fluctuations but *if* the market turned sour I'd like to cash out on this asset now rather than hold through a downturn.

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    Precisely. Not sad at all, we had great memories, but we had great memories before when we stayed at POFQ, CBR, and a townhouse off property.

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    No question at all about returning - probably after Star Wars Land opens and the insanity dies down a bit. One thing I forgot to mention about selling is that we felt obligated to go to Disney because we owned DVC. Yes, the hotel portion was covered, but we still had to purchase plane...

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    We did not consider renting. Perhaps should have given that some thought, but the deal has already passed ROFR and we're set to close sometime in August. I have no regrets either way. I learned a lot about the process

    Two Years and Already Decided to Sell

    Big Disney fans - made at least one trip (and sometimes multiple) every year from 2009 to this year. I ran Dopey in 2014 and Goofy in 2017. Did a adult only trip for a milestone birthday for my wife - you get the picture. We like it. A lot. Finally decided to pull the trigger and buy resale...

    Old, Abandoned Hotel off of 192 and I-4

    After looking through what everyone has posted I'm confident now that it was the Hyatt. I appreciate all the input and responses.

    Old, Abandoned Hotel off of 192 and I-4

    Thanks for digging this up. This was definitely the place. The music in the video gave me a "Charlie Brown 'Christmas-time is Here'" vibe, kind of sad and melancholy. It seems to me this property is past rehab and needs to be demolished for something else - perhaps more parking for WDW or...

    Old, Abandoned Hotel off of 192 and I-4

    Thanks @writerguyfl and @HopperFan for the info - this is the exact kind of feedback I was hoping for. I do have some vague memories of the place - the lobby seemed huge to me and for some reason fresh squeezed, expensive orange juice comes to mind and my dad didn't want to spend the money on...

    Old, Abandoned Hotel off of 192 and I-4

    That's it. It may have been a Ramada in 1983 as well, but 30 years of time have fogged my brain.

    According to Google Maps it was on Safari Trail: https://www.google.com/maps/@28.3334466,-81.5354198,17z

    Old, Abandoned Hotel off of 192 and I-4

    Hey guys - not sure if this is the right place to post this or not. We just returned from a week-long stay at the Polynesian, great time, great resort, but not the subject of this post. We had a car this trip and took a drive off property for dinner one evening and as we're driving back we...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Trying to help a buddy out - he and his wife are going to MK for ONE day (crazy right?) and he wants to buy each of them a one day ticket and make FP+ selections. I understand buying the ticket part but does Disney mail them a hard ticket for this one day excursion? Once he buys it I assume...

    Fishing Excursions?

    I just booked the 7-9 AM excursion out of the Poly in late March and this is great info - big savings on the total cost. Any other coupons in there that you've used? Thanks @wolf29!
