I was expecting to pay a premium this first time that we're staying in a Disney property and we certainly paid a premium. But given the choices of resorts, I would not hesitate to stay at OKW again.
No extras, but the people were extremely accommodating and friendly.
When we first arrived we were told that no units were available in any of the 4 buildings I'd requested and that no units at all were available for early check-in (in fact, nothing available until 4pm). After some cajoling and ten minutes or so of waiting, we were given precisely the unit we wanted in precisely the building we wanted - and it was available immediately (11am).
I suppose one could be cynical about that - we were just pleased. The ability to check in, shower and change before heading to the theme parks was terrific.
I checked out a couple of the more "theme-y" resorts, none had the same relaxed atmosphere we found here - a perfect counterpoint to the frenetic activity of the parks. The kids loved spending a couple of hours each day in the middle of the day at the pool.
I suspect there are other laid back resorts, I just didn't visit them. But what cinched the deal was the size and convenience of our 2-bedroom suite. Fantastic!
Negatives? Just one - it was little musty, but you got used to it almost immediately. It was clean and comfortable and offered every amenity we needed.
