Poll Time! A Meta Poll

Well I really prefer a king if I’m not alone as that’s what I’m used to. I suppose alone a double would probably suffice. I’m not a particularly large person.

Dolphin has King rooms with sleepers. I thought they only had dbls before I stayed there. (I truly have no idea how marketing ppl get paid for examples like this, but everything I saw said lead me to think they only had doubles.)

Swan has had queens since 2016 at least.

The beds are definitely “heavenly” as advertised, though. They might ruin you for other beds on property.

Come to the daaaaaark side. :laughing:

They are not everyone’s cup of tea, I get it. For our fam tho, a fantastic choice with fantastic amenities, location, and the foooooooood.

Aren’t they also shorter?
Thought full was 54", queen 60" wide and full 75", queen 80" long
Had to go straight to queen for my very tall son when upgrading his bed, this was the main reason.

We did a King at Swan last year. The sofa sleeper could potentially be used for 1 teen or 2 littles, not 2 teens IMO. DH agreed that that was the most comfortable bed he has slept in at Disney so far (he’s particular though).

I have done some of these - if you search “Poll Time!” you should be able to find all the topics. But I haven’t done it from the perspective of your specific suggestions, so thanks!

I have already vowed never to do this. LOL

I’ve checked out some of the past polls, will do more searching :wink: Things have changed so much recently though.

Wait…shouldn’t there have been a poll to determine if we should have a poll about possible polls? :thinking:

Some more “value” centric options might be good. Best DVC rental service? Best off-site restaurant food delivery? Where to get groceries either delivered or by shopping in person? Side trip ideas or off site souvenir shops? Best vacation home rental options or DS area resort. Increasing costs are a popular topic so this is a natural progression for me. Also Disney-related content would be interesting. Best Playlists? Podcast? YouTube Channel? I always wonder what content people enjoy and why.

Another idea for a topic:

How do you and your children (maybe of a minimum age?) pass the time waiting in line:
Each one doing separate things on electronic devices
Doing a group activity/game on electronic devices
Unplugged - talking, looking around

I admit I have no recent experience doing WDW with kids, so I don’t know the correct terms.

I think people’s spending priorities are interesting.

Every time I price up a trip, the cost of anything other than a budget onsite hotel seems horrifying to me. They’re so much more than Pop and the All Stars. Very occasionally, CSR is close. There are no circumstances in which I would stay at a moderate or a deluxe.

Yet, flying transatlantic, I never even look at the economy fares. I would never fly economy from the UK to the US. I try to find an “affordable” business class fare, otherwise I settle for premium economy (which is like US domestic business class).

Solo, I agree. Solo I prefer Pop (I did treat myself to GDT for 2 nights last spring but that was a matter of research as much as anything.

But when you add more people to the mix, the need for more room/amenities/etc becomes more important.

And then for those of us that are DVC, well paying for any room becomes painful

I had a similar though last night while reading the initial postings.

I would be interested in finding out the value people feel they recieve from the allocations they make on various different spends during a WDW vacation. For a trival example, when looking at an overall experience do they find that spending $$$ on a deluxe resort vs $ on Quick Service meals yields the best vacation.

I’m trying to figure out how to turn a lot of the various ideas being thrown around into poll(s). :sweat_smile:

Good luck with that, @Jeff_AZ
