So nice you have the option of Shades of Green. Disney hotel prices have gone a little crazy the last few years. I'm hoping for a short Disney trip this year with just my DH. I thought if it was a short stay we could splurge on one of the deluxes but - oh my. We'll probably end up at a moderate. Just not sure I can pulled the trigger on a deluxe. But maybe a great code or percent off will come along. Looking forward to seeing how you work your way thru the planning - going to WDW isn't for wimps!
We wouldn't be able to take trips to Disney nearly as often if it weren't for Shades of Green. Deluxes are just so incredibly expensive. (Our two nights in a standard room at AKL is costing us as much as 5 nights at Shades.)
I'll keep my fingers crossed a code or discount comes around for you. The moderates seem nice, but when you've got your heart set on a deluxe it can be a bit frustrating having to settle.
But good for you both! It'll be wonderful to have some time together, and let the kids have some special time with their grandparents as well.
Couldn't agree more. Alex and I have waited far too long in regards to getting away without the kids. It was one of those things where plans kept falling through and before we knew it Evie was turning 3 and we hadn't been anywhere together. Alex makes it no secret that this is the part of the trip he is most looking forward to.
It may be really lovely with the kids to have time to relax, swim, rest, and still get loads of park time.
I'm hoping since we have the luxury of time we can let the kids have more of say in what we do. If they wake up one morning and ask to go swimming for a few hours, we should be able to say yes since we'll have plenty of time to knock out park Must-Do's later.
This sounds like a lot of fun to me. I am always trying to get DH to go longer then 7 days. DH tries to get me to go like 3 or 4 days. We then settle on 7.
Admittedly, my husband and I are flip flopped. Alex would spend 2 weeks in Orlando if I'd agree to it, but I worry that being there for so long will burn me out. But that might be because my husband is a commando park goer so when he throws out a number like 14, I just imagine two straight weeks of walking under the hot sun. 7 days sounds like the perfect number to me and just the right compromise.
