Hello
I have a question for you guys. I am planning to take my teenage daughters to WDW next fall on our first "mother/daughter" trip. Yup, we are leaving dad at home
. We own at AKV and I have us booked in a studio there for 7 nights, arriving on a Friday. It's a long, convoluted story, but basically, we'd like to stay elsewhere for 6 nights, since I don't have enough points for 7. So, I'm thinking about doing a split stay. Ideally, I want to split between an Epcot area (BCV preferably) and a MK area resort. BLT, GFV and Poly are out...too many points...so that brings me to CCV and BRV....which brings me to this thread
.
I'm torn between CCV and BRV and I am trying to weigh the pros and cons. Here's what I am looking at so far. The girls will be 13 and 15 when we go. None of us particularly want to share a bed and none of us like the fold outs. With BRV, there are 3 sleeping surfaces...spread over 3 nights, we could rotate and it would be completely fair...each of us spends one night in each bed and nobody has to share. (Incidentally, that's why we'd like to spend the other three nights of our trip at BCV...three beds to rotate between!) The rooms at BRV are bigger, but older, and slightly further away from the "action".
Now, the rooms at CCV are GORGEOUS! The layout of the kitchenette is amazing and looks so functional. The rooms might be smaller, but they look so nice. The foldout sofa should be relatively comfortable, since it is new, but it would still require some bed-sharing. There's also the slim chance that we could luck out and score one of those amazing "alternate" studios...OMG! That would be PERFECT! I saw the video of that room on YouTube and that thing is incredible! How many of those are there anyways? WOW!
As much as I love Epcot during the F&W festival and the fact that we've never stayed at BCV (or BRV, or CCV either) we may just try and get all 6 nights at these two resorts since I simply just can't decide. Can any of the experts here provide some insight on my chances at 7 months? I plan to be online at 8am sharp and I am prepared to wait list and stalk if needed. I don't know which resort has the better chance of being available so I don't know which one I should try first.
Any and all advice is appreciated
