    Hmmm...We went from Pirate rooms at CBR to POR and I was disappointed--probably because I just hated to leave CBR. Of course this was moderate to moderate...I just wasn't that stirred up about POR in the first place because it's all too familiar! I loved AKL, and will always have a hard time leaving it. So maybe it's more about the leaving than the disappointment in the second place...

    Default POR vs AKL

    We've stayed at both and preferred POR:
    - Love the spread out grounds, vegetation, atmosphere, etc
    - boat to DTD
    - main pool and quiet pools - great for hopping one to the other
    - carriage ride
    - entertainment in POR and POFQ lounge
    - price differential

    Let us know when you get back. Hehe...
    I know, that doesn't help you right now.

    Both places are nice, it's just the order that you did it that might be an issue.

    You should always bump UP to a more expensive room if your gonna split it.

    We really love POR. I don't think you will be disappointed. Last year we went from VWL to All Star for the last night. The VWL was sold out. There was a distinct difference, but they both offer their own Disney theming. All in all it was a great time.

    Well I am back and I am happy to say that I wasn't disappointed in POR at all! If anything, I was disappointed in the size of the AKL room. When we went to POR I felt like they had given us an upgrade on the size! It could have been the bunk beds that made the room feel smaller, but the POR room felt twice as big! I have to say that I STILL prefer the moderates to the deluxes. POR was a fantastic choice and I would recommend it to anyone!

    Like most have already stated it all depends on you, what your expecting and how you handle the situation. That said, this past Nov. we stayed at BC for the week then switched to the Poly for 3 nights before going home. I was so glad that we had the Poly at the end. I don't know that I would have been able to pull myself from the Poly to go to another resort. Of course it was just as hard to pull myself away to go home. Both resorts were wonderful, but I liked having the resort we most liked at the end, but who knows you may like POR more than AKL.


    Oops, didn't realize you were back and had a wonderful time. Glad yo enjoyed your resort!
