This will be our 12th trip to the world this summer. Like everyone else I have been waiting forever for AP rates. I have never had to wait this long for discounts. I usually book anywhere from 8 to 10 months in advance with some discount or code. Last year I booked the CR at $139 with a DC rate in January for our August trip, and stayed at the Swan in December on a teacher's rate of $129. We already have our airline tickets (2 months ago) for this summer. A great rate of $118 round trip from Va. Also lucked into a great rental car rate at National of $124 per week. We are staying for 16 nights. So what's the problem???? No place to stay. As you can see I like good deals. After talking not only to The Disney Club tonight and CRO as well with no luck, I decided I had to have something. I booked the Holiday Inn Family Suites. Yes I know I will probably be called a traitor for going off property. Oh well. My son really liked their web page and the kid suites. I got a 3 room kid suite for $99 per night (with tax $110.94) using the Entertainment card rate. This also includes breakfast for everyone in the family everyday. No money down, and you can cancell up to the day of arrival. I figure I now at least have a place to stay. If any good deals open up on property I can always change or split our stay since we are staying for so many nights. Anyone ever stay here? Hope I made a good choice!
