We ended up renting DVC points at SSR. It was only about 100 more than CSR. Glad we got it booked. Prices are out of controlI'm looking at early February ... right now the prices are pretty outrageous
Yeah? Good for you! We booked with All-Star Movies but have hopes for Port Orleans resorts to open by February.We ended up renting DVC points at SSR. It was only about 100 more than CSR. Glad we got it booked. Prices are out of control
Wow, that is insane! I am curious what you think of ASMovies. I have always wanted to stay there. DH wanted the proximity to DS and, if you can believe it, he is not a park person so DD and I go to the parks and he likes to hang at the pool.Yeah? Good for you!

Right?! The prices are absolutely crazy right now ... I'm just in shock. We are going to Universal before the Disney portion and we were able to get the Royal Pacific for less per night than the prices for Disney Moderates. It's insane.
Port Orleans (either resort) are my favorite, particularly the Royal Rooms. HOWEVER, when we are being budget conscious or, in this case, lack of availability, I very much enjoy ASMo because of the theming (I like being reminded I'm staying at Disney) and with the remodel, we love having a singular bed without "wasting" a second bed. Not sure how familiar with the remodels you are but there is a normal queen bed in the room and the second queen bed is now a murphy queen that folds down from a table. So for us, we get a table since we don't need the second bedWow, that is insane! I am curious what you think of ASMovies. I have always wanted to stay there.

That is all very helpful, yes. I think my husband likes a relaxing, more adult pool environment and the pool bar at SSR's Paddock is one of his favorites..and he likes the hot tub, which I know values don't have. I have seen the newly renovated rooms at ASMo and they are appealing.Port Orleans (either resort) are my favorite, particularly the Royal Rooms.

The theming in the room is modern and artistic to me and the amenities are nice. I prefer the second sink in moderates+ BUT this will work. The pool, unfortunately, isn't amazing but it is still nice for a dip.
If your husband needs more like, waterslide or anything, ASMo wouldn't be a great go-to (or any of the values).
Food wise, pre-covid, it has decent food to eat, not ALL just burgers and hot dogs. I think AoA had a better variety but ASMo is still good enough for us to stay multiple times
There is more children about and I've noticed the type of people that stay at the values are a bit different from those in moderates+. I think they don't control their children as much comparatively and seem a bit more demanding with CMs.
Hmmm. I think that's all I can think of. If there is another aspect you want to know about, go ahead and PM me and I'll answer!
I'm waiting to see if any discounts will come out as well. The prices are crazy! Otherwise we'll book offsite. We of course would prefer to stay onsite, but there is no way in heck I'm paying those prices.
