    (2014-2020) Disney's GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA + VILLAS Information & Questions

    Seven more days until I'm back at WDW and nine more until I'm at GF Club Level. I'm so excited and love hearing about everyone's experiences here.

    Should we switch??

    I personally would not. Contemporary is nice and the location is great. If the cost savings is significant and you can use the money for other fun stuff though you could do a heck of a lot worse than Coronado.

    (2014-2020) Disney's GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA + VILLAS Information & Questions

    I'm 10 days away from being back at GF. :cool1:We stayed for our first time last November and loved it and we can't wait to get back. We are trying club level this trip which we are looking forward too. We stayed CL at Yacht Club in April and thought it was great. I'm getting ready for the...

    Pools and coolers

    I typically fly since I live far away and buy a styrofoam cooler (and beer) for about 8 bucks from garden grocer and just leave it st the resort when I go home. It’s much cheaper than buying drinks st the pool bar.

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS RIVERSIDE RESORT Information & Questions

    That's too bad. It was a lot of fun. I do see that Wilderness Lodge has a trivia day at Geyser Point so I'm checking too see if it's similar. Either way I really appreciate the feedback. I'm sure we can figure out something to do that night. ;)

    Disney's WILDERNESS LODGE Information & Questions

    Has anyone participated in the trivia event a geyser point? We are staying at Ft. Wilderness next month but always enjoy Wilderness Lodge and it looks like it would be fun. Our family went to a trivia event at Port Orleans last year and had a great time and was hoping this was similar.

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS RIVERSIDE RESORT Information & Questions

    Can anyone tell me if there is still trivia on Tuesday nights at the lounge? We did it last trip and had a blast and would like to do it again when we are back in August.

    Marathon Weekend 2020

    Thanks for pointing this out. I had made my resort reservations but hadn't pulled the trigger on the Dopey yet. This saved $50 which is nice. I ran my first half marathon at Wine & Dine last November and all three Star Wars races but never dreamed of attempting a marathon. I can't wait for this...

    Official 2019 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend

    It’s going to take a while to get everyone back to the corrals. This is frustrating as there is no communication from Disney. I was excited for this run but at this point I’m hoping they cancel.

    How dark is Sci-Fi?

    I've been twice. I really enjoyed it the first time but not so much on our last visit. It was cold inside which bothered me though. It is pretty dark, but I was able to see ok. It's a unique setup though and fun to experience.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    I check in Wednesday morning. We are going to the after hours event at Animal Kingdom but will be hanging around the YC and SAB until the evening. We are staying club level the first two days which is exciting.

    Why can't I leave it alone???

    My last three trips I have had reservations at Wilderness Lodge. I have yet to stay there though because we always end up somewhere else. There are so many awesome resorts that no matter where I'm staying I always find other options appealing. I have stayed at AOA 4 times though and absolutely...

    Official 2019 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend

    I'm flying in Wednesday morning and going to after hours at Animal Kingdom that night. I'm trying to get some work done today but it's not going well. I'm ready to be at Disney and after running in the cold this weekend I'm really ready for some warm weather.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Nice review @mckenk. I'm going to be at Yacht Club on Wednesday the first time and we can't wait. Was there anything in particular that took two hours for Magical Express? I love the free service, but it's tough to be in Orlando and not heading towards Disney.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Just 10 more days until I check into Yacht Club. I’m so excited to get to experience the new rooms and SAB. Does anyone know how prevalent the smart speakers are? We would be interested in trying them but didn’t know how limited they were.

    Official 2019 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend

    That is where I am as well. I ran a half a couple of weekends ago and am feeling pretty good. This will be my first challenge, but I think I can bounce back fine. My biggest concern is oversleeping as we have an after hours at HS and a dinner at V&A before the 10k and half. I'm sure I'll be fine...

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Count me on the list as well. I'm going to be there in two weeks and we are debating a half day rental. We are spending a lot of time at the resort and think it might be a nice place to relax while my girls are at the pool, but it is pretty pricey for just a couple of hours. I'm interested in...

    Official 2019 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend

    I'll be there Saturday. I'm staying at the Yacht Club so it will be easy for me.

    Rate my Dining schedule!

    There some great advice in this thread. I too would worry about having 3 meals in a day. Deluxe dining is about spacing out the meals and using you snacks to fill in. You also burn a lot of time in the restaurants. I'm also a big fan of Skipper Canteen and would suggest keeping it. I like Kona...

    Artist point

    It's currently 1 credit. Artist Point was a 2 credit meal before the change to a character experience.
