We are currently booked for an AoA suite. Our kids are 3 & 6, so the theming is great for them. We are a family of 4 so don't need the extra space, but it is nice.
I can't stop dreaming about a stay at AKL though, and a standard room there is actually $200 cheaper for us currently. Since the kids will have fun no matter what (they'll have plenty of theming in the parks), I am really considering changing. But I am so very on the fence just because of the transportation complaints I have read.
We are planning a mid-day break with park hopping a few days, but not all. A few nights we will call it a day early. We have 7 day tickets and are spending about the same amount of time in each park, including 2 days at AK. A little more MK heavy than Epcot.
I've googled and know there are varying opinions, but I always like to ask specific to our situation and also see if any recent experiences (especially during the very busy recent holiday season) might be shared.
One more thing to throw out is that if we don't stay at AKL this time, we will when we return in about 3 years and the kids are 6 and 9. The only reason I'm not sold on this is that AKL is the dream, and I always try to live for the moment... yada yada.
Finally, split stay totally silly with young kids right?
Thank you!
