We just got back from an on site split stay 5 days POFQ with free ddp upgraded to table service and 5 days OKW with rented DVC points. my friend and I took our DD's (11 and 9) on a girls only trip .
Highs -almost everything
weather was lovely but not too hot (my friends previous trip was in July (way too hot ) and ours in January (which was freezing ) -We have had an Easter tripwhich was nice too .
We used FP+ which worked well for 3 out of 4 of us.
we attended MNSSHP which was amazing
We had fabulous table service meals - special mention has to go to Coral Reef which was absolutely delicious -we all cleared our plates !
We had lovely character interaction at 1900 Park Fayre with the face characters and at MNSSHP .
We tried the kitchen sink (but failed miserably even with 4 !)
we got all the printed photos we expected with photo pass plus
Disney transport . First time we have stayed on site so first time we have used it an I was well impressed at how organised it was.
lows -mostly to do with FP+
FP+ consistently did not work for my friend with her first magic band . At most rides this was acknowledged as a glitch and she got on with us when we showed the app but we had two instances (splash mountain and nemo show) that we were kept back for ages whilst they sorted it and once at TSM were they ended up blocking the queue to sort it.
the app is very glitchy on android devices ( this was acknowledged by a CM at animal kingdom )
OKW quick service -Goods to Go was always disorganised when we went . It seemed a very cramped not very well set out little place for such a big resort. Our food was served cold once another time we were overcharged and it took ages for them to sort it . people seemed to have to weave through the queue to get to cutlery and drink machines.
Overall it was a great trip . I'm already hoping for another one (maybe Easter 2015) and would love to stay onsite again . Of the two resorts I preferred POFQ. I liked the compactness of the resort and it had a charming feel to it.
