Priceline Express Deals

10 days is wonderful but only 2 park days??? That would be torcher for me to be that close and only go to the parks 2 days.

We've been going 2-3 time a year for the last 12 years or so. There is just no urge to 'do it all' anymore. We are very happy to just be there. We probably average 8 day trips with 3 park days now. This 10 day trip just worked out because we fly in after work on the Friday and fly home on a Monday at 8am. I would rather fly home on the Sunday but those flights were triple the price of the Monday so it's cheaper to stay that extra night even when everything is factored in.

If I feel like adding in another park day, I will. The plans are not set in stone. I would really love to have a trip with AP's and just come and go at will. I'm sure someday we will do that but it's just not in the budget now. I'm all about getting more vacation days so the budget has to be reined in somehow.

I think it is one of the all-stars or possibly Pop.

I'm looking at that one too. Need All Stars, so waiting to see which one it really is. That price is awesome, though!

I agree with @Jessica Prokop. My guess is Pop but could possible be an All Stars.

My guess is Pop Century. It says it was just booked for $112 which is the exact discounted price you can get Pop for from Disney for that date.

Last day for the 10% coupon I have if someone can use it. Let me know.

 

[Lilysmom]

Ok I took the plunge. It is POP. I applied the 10% coupon and ended up getting the two rooms for a total of $161 with tax. Can someone walk me through how to add this to MDE? Do I have to do something differently? Also, it let me put myself on one room and my husband on the other but nowhere for me to add the kids. I think I read somewhere on the thread that I need to call someone to do that? We literally get in around 8pm and will move the next morning to BC so I don't have tickets or anything attached to this reservation.

This was posted yesterday.

I didn't have any luck through the chat feature on Disney or Priceline, just call the Wholesale department with your confirmation # 1 407 939 7671 and they can add the kids. No problem at all.

Great deal @Lilysmom! Thanks for reporting back.

 

[Lilysmom]

I found it. I'm going to have to call and see how to do this since each room is booked for two adults. I'm the lead on our MDE account and because our children are all 15 or younger I don't have two adults in each room (I have me as the lead on one room and my husband on the other) so I'm not even sure both reservations can be linked through MDE. When I add my reservation number it prompts me to pair up a second family member that's not being matched since it says adult 18+ and the kids don't fit that requirement. I'll call just to be sure something doesn't get messed up.

I think it is one of the all-stars!

BWI's lack of a food court makes it hard to want to stay there in August. I love Boardwalk Bakery, but the outdoor seating is more inviting in the non-summer seasons.

I have to say we loved eating outside every morning and found it no problem to grab a bite and bring back by the pool for lunch. I found it way more appealing than sitting in a food court. Did have to deal with the occasional duck begging for a bite of my pastry though!

I figured this could be helpful down the road. Doesn’t guarantee by any means but a strong indicator based on reported wins that included descriptions.

Also - Priceline Disney hotels tend to show only three amenities: restaurant, free internet, indoor or outdoor pool.

Priceline descriptions:

Pop - This vibrant, lively property boasts beautifully landscaped grounds.

POFQ - Enjoy jazzy evening entertainment at this well-designed resort.

Swan - You'll be wowed by this property's contemporary rooms and verdant grounds.

Boardwalk Inn - The kids will love the super pool at this resort with plenty of old-fashioned charm.

Beach Club/Yacht Club - Enjoy the water features and dining at this Orlando resort.

AoA - Enjoy kid-focused colorful, fun indoor and outdoor spaces here.

CBR - Numerous pools and lush surroundings are hallmarks if this tropically inspired spot.

I have GF somewhere and will update.

[Jessica Prokop]

Was anyone looking for 8/5-8/6 - AKL is on Priceline for $156!

Wow. Great price. I hope I can get lucky like that.

 

[Ashley Marie]

I am almost certain that on Priceline deals, Grand Floridian has "grand" in the description, Poly has "tropical" in it and Contemporary has "up-to-date" and something about it being near the Magic Kingdom. BUT I have no confirmation of this as I haven't booked them: I've seen them pop up and it's an educated guess based on the (IMO) obvious descriptive words and the "last booked" prices matching the prices of those resorts for the same dates.

--

Editing to add the descriptions that I think match the above (again, listen to me at your own risk because I don't have personal confirmation!) if I can find them again:

Polynesian - Soak in the waterside views and tropical decor close to area attractions.

Grand Floridian - Pamper yourself in the smartly designed rooms or at the spa of this grand choice.

All-Star Sports - Get active on the sports courts at this location close to the best attractions.

 

[Ashley Marie]

FYI - pretty sure I am seeing Beach Club for $234/night on 9/3-9/5 (Priceline Express Deal)
