Are there any Disney veterans out there that have any tips, best places to stay, money savers, etc...
The Military has "The Shades of Green" hotel but I've heard you can get better deals else where that has shuttles that takes you to the different Disney Kingdoms.
Any input will be greatly appreciated.
If you are not looking to stay in Walt Disney and save money. I would go to Howard Johnson which is about 2 miles from there. There a few hojos and they all run about $30 maybe $40 for double bed rooms, jacuzzi and pool. The restaurants are in abundance in the area.
If you really want to save money go to a timeshare show which is 4 hours long maybe 2. :roflol: We did and got two free tickets. To be honest it was not that bad and my wife and I still have the memory of me being so cheap just to get two tickets. Just dont buy the timeshare. Because for just a moment there they make sense. :imwithstupid: Now if you want to get tickets the normal way. I would use AAA or your military card discount.
Make sure you check out Wet and Wild, Disney and Universal.
If you dont care about rooms the best I think hotel to date dont care how long its been is The Polynesian Hotel. You might be able to get a room for $200 a night. But the great thing is that its inside the park and the monorail runs through there. Dont do the Contemporary that place sucked i stayed there. It was nostalgic but worthless in the end.
Hope this helps.
