late july or mid august?
had so much fun for new years & the bowl game we are going back this summer . . . just wondering crowd wise is there a difference? thinking july might be more crowded due to school starting earlier and earlier these days. it will be hot though.
this will be a pool trip mainly, with good sunshine prior to college football season! incidentally, we stayed at the Rosen Centre on international for new years eve . . .great spot can no longer spend the $ at the disney deluxe resorts
feedback appreciated!

I don't know if it'll be a huge difference if you're just looking to hang out at the resorts, but the crowds will definitely be some lower by mid-August.

Agreed, we've been mid-late August a few times and crowds aren't too bad, and really drop off the last couple of weeks as schools start to go back.

There are MANY deluxe resorts off Disney property that are significantly less expensive. If you are just going down to a resort for their pool and not going to WDW, there are many places you can go that are very nice not in Orlando. I would go to the Bahamas.
1 Week at Wyndham Bonnet Creek 06/17/17 - 06/24/17; 1 Week at Orange Lake Resort 06/24/17 - 06/30/17; 1 week at OKW 12/03/17 - 12/10/17

We went the end of June last year and it was pretty crowded and very hot and humid plus it rained a lot.

I would have to cast my vote for mid to late August due to kids starting or getting ready to go back to school.
Hope this helps...

We had some discussions about the same thing this year too. But ultimately August works better for us. We know through experience that it is less crowded. That makes a difference IMHO because crowds AND heat/humidity together can be overwhelming. Cuts the stress level way down!

Vote for Mid-Aug. Although its very humid and you have to put up with quick daily thunderstorms, the crowds are manageable.

Another vote for mid-August - still hot and humid but crowds are subsiding from summer highs.

If those were the only two options, I would choose August. But for me either one would probably be too humid.

Another vote for August - July has a lot of South American groups as well as regular crowds. We go in July because of our schedules but would pick August if we could. Slight increased risk of hurricanes but you can't worry about that. We have outrun two in August, leaving just before conditions got bad. Heat is the same both months - but if you use the pool, it is manageable.
