*Hi guys, we currently have 2 standard rooms booked for end of april in gf, each room has 3 adults and 2 small kids, *I can probably change to poly studio villa for just a little more, any thoughts on plusses of poly over gf, thanks
Villa at poly has kitchenette and 2 bathrooms (kind of - one toilet but two showers and vanity areas). Other than that, I think you’re good either way.
Oh wait - you’re going to switch from two rooms to one studio room? Nope. I would stick with the two rooms. We can fit our family of 2 adults and 2 teens in the poly studio villa but it’s not as comfortable as two rooms for the same or a little less would be.
No silly it would still be 2 rooms
Both are great resorts. My kids like the pool at the Poly better than GF. The studios are nice (and have an extra shower and toilet as @OBNurseNH mentioned which is helpful). But the Poly studio has one real bed and a pull out bed whereas the room at GF will have two proper beds.
No extra toilet. Just extra shower.
Ah. Two studios would be nice as then you have FOUR shower areas, two toilets, two kitchenettes, two real beds, two pull out beds, and two child-sized Murphy beds.
Oh, that’s right–extra shower and sink. I thought that was weird.
Are you talking about a cash Poly studio or renting points?
I have considered on a few occasions staying at the GF over the Poly, but I just can’t get over how long it could take to get to and from EP from there, where we tend to spend a good deal of time. Considering we tend to take breaks and hop a lot, I like the convenience of the Poly. The DVC buildings at the Poly are literally over the hedge from the TTC. That’s been the deciding factor for me.
But I agree with @dreamer and @OBNurseNH that I might take the 2 beds at GF over the studio layout at Poly considering the number of people you have in each room.
eta: btw, I had this exact dilemma a few months ago when booking for the same time (mid-late April). Currently have 2 Poly DVC studios reserved despite the marginally more expensive rate, but we have 2 adults/2 kids in one and 2 adults in the other… We plan to spend most of our time at MK (for the kids) and EP (for Flower & Garden Festival).
