I love the attractions idea too! If you're good with including some that have already been done as virtual races, I'd love to see the iconic park snacks as race themes--bonus points if you get to have said snacks at the end of the race!
Yes, it's been ages since Marrakesh was something more permanent!
I feel like it's a nice gesture for APs, but I agree; I wish that the dining discounts included the whole week. If you happen to dine at an eligible restaurant Sunday to Thursday, it's really a great deal! I have actually never made it to the AP lounge since we usually end up at the EPCOT lounge instead. Depending on t
That sounds amazing! Is that the Wild African Trek?
Your options are basically one-time-use points, renting points, transferring points, a cash stay, or if add-on-itis has set in, another contract lol. https://dvcfan.com/general-dvc/what-to-do-when-you-are-out-of-dvc-points/
We bought our BLT direct contract without having stayed there or even visited first, but I did do a lot research and looked at room tours and all. We knew that the location would be a huge perk, and almost 7 years later, we have no regrets. We didn't have a child at the time that we bought our contract, but BLT is now
I don't have a good template packing list exactly, but here are a few things I've been packed for DVC stays other than clothes and toiletries: -Laundry and dryer sheets -Snacks (granola bars, yogurt, fruit, crackers) -Drinks -Microwaveable food (e.g., oatmeal, mac and cheese, popcorn) -Ingredients for easy meals in a o
I think it may depend on what you want to prioritize. If you really don't want to end up with a split stay, book your entire stay wherever you can and then waitlist those dates for AKL. If you prefer to prioritize being at AKL, then book what you can find at Kidani and then waitlist the one night since your odds of a w
I haven't done many extras at the resorts, but I do think that the Keys to the Kingdom tour was totally worth it for an in-park extra. You get to learn all sorts of fun facts about the Magic Kingdom, and it was really cool to see backstage.
Yes, there should be more spots available for the first round of registration for those with hotel reservations. @Ryan C has a great blog that goes over all the Moonlight Magic basics, including registration. It's a good read before your first attempt, but feel free to ask any specific questions about the process!
I got the short rib hash there the other day, and it was delicious! If I had a longer stay, I would've loved to try some of the other options.
While it's not necessarily quiet (but quieter than the main lobby), there is some nice seating in the lobby of Big Pine Key that could possibly work.
The all-bus situation with a stroller in tow kind of deters me from booking AKV more often too, but seeing how happy my son was there may make me change my mind in the future.
I didn't get to stay long at all since I had my toddler with me, but WALL-E was so adorable moving and talking, and I was happy to see Ian and Barley from Onward from afar! I also snagged some tasty treats like the wookie cookie, Jack Jack's num num cookie, brownie sundae, popcorn, pretzel, and churro. I feel like HS M
Kidani has a really nice water play area with different sections for different age groups! Also beyond the pool, the savannas, playground, and community hall at AKV are great for little kids. We were just at Kidani, and my 3-year-old didn't want to leave! We took the walking path to Jambo House for the playground, and
We got our refurbished room, and it’s so nice! Very excited about that and that we got our room before noon.
I've got just the blog for you! https://dvcrentalstore.com/blog/watching-fireworks-from-disneys-boardwalk-villas/
I was planning to try the Kidani breakfast for an upcoming blog lol. That short rib hash sounds delicious! Any other favorites there?
