Family of six headed to WDW next June 2014. Ages of kids will be 12,12,12,14.
Priorities in order
1. Location
2. Length of stay
3. Cost
4. Nice accommodations.
Staying on-site is mandatory for the type of vacation we desire. Having stayed at Art if Animstion and Port Orleans, having to use the bus for everything isn’t ideal. The choice for the next trip will be either Carribean Beach or Beach Club. I’m actually booked for 5 days at a deluxe room at Beach Club for $880 a night inclusive of all taxes and fees. At that price, we can afford about 5 nights max. That’s hefty for a room with two queens, a pull out, and a single bathroom. Sure it’s steps from Epcot, the best pool on property, and a deluxe resort to boot!
Enter Carribean Beach. Two rooms all in would be $660 a night. More space, the same gondola transportation, still a nice pool, and we can stay 7 nights for the price of 5.
How do not switch to Carribean Beach? Stormalong Bay and location of Beach Club warrants the severe price difference?
With extra days at WDW, we pay very little extra in ticket prices and do that much more.
Thoughts?
