WARNING: This question has probably been asked a million and ten times.
I'm wanting to purchase DVC this year. I have a trip coming up that I'll be renting DVC points for. I want to experience a resort that I haven't tried before before I decide which resort to purchase point at (I'll probably be doing resale). I'd like to use this upcoming trip to do that.
We are currently at Boardwalk but I'm considering seeing if we can switch to Bay Lake or the Grand Floridian. We are doing a multi-generational trip and there are 9 of us currently - 2 are toddlers. We plan to spend 5 days in the park - 2 of them at MK. My ONLY hesitation about boardwalk is that the theme-ing is very adult seems to be very little in the way of "Disney touches". This isn't a long term "issue" really but since the majority of the people going on this trip are Disney- newbies AND may even be their only trip I'd like to get as much theme-ing in there as possible. The other "issue" I have with it is the pool. I don't really care about the theme. I think it's funny, personally. But I'm not seeing anything about a kids area or anything.
Long term - when my daughter is old enough to bring friends with us and we don't care about theme-ing as much Boardwalk seems perfect for us. But while she is little a monorail resort with a little heavier of a theme seems better.
ANYWAYS. The primary questions is here. Which of the resorts should I try before deciding which to buy? The choices this trip are VGF, BLT, and BWV. I've stayed at Poly, Boulder ridge, and beach club already. Which resort do you think is better for a bigger family trip with some members that may never come back to disney?
