Question Poly or another resort!!!! HELP!!!

My dh and I are currently booked at the POLY in september for 5 days (hopefully 6 if i can sneak it in!!!!) do you think that maybe the Boardwalk or Yacht/Beach Club would be a better choice??? I am always second guessing myself................help!!! P.S......this is supposed to be a relaxing romantic trip without DS-2

It depends on what you like. I think a similar poll that Melissa posted was in favor of Boardwalk...

Poly is fabulous, but so is BWI. It depends on what you're looking for

I think it depends what you're looking for. If you're happy with the Poly, I would stick with it. Our favourite is the Yacht and Beach Club, because of the location and the theming.

Keep the Poly if want it's great. I think I agree with the other person who said it's all what you want. There is alot to do at the boardwalk with all the resturants and the stuff going on at the boardwalk but I either would be great.

We've stayed at the Poly a few times...so I'm biased. I love the atmosphere....I recommend the Figi Building-3rd Floor facing the marina and the Great Ceremonial House.

We prefer the BC/YC over the Poly, but it's all in what you like

they are all equally great. but if you say you want to relax go with the poly. they have quiet beaches that overlook the fireworks and MK- very romantic. having the monorail practically at you door is pretty nice. but if relaxing to you is walking around and enjoying the sights, and more people, then the boardwalk or yc/bc might be for you.

Smile Poly is more romantic!

I love the themes at both. But I find the Poly more romantic! It is quieter. The beach is not as busy as the boardwalk. Great restaurants are in close proximity to both. If staying at the Poly you are only a monorail ride away from Cali Grill, Narcoosee' and Citricos. Plus I love Kona's for breakfast.

If you are looking for more of a party atmosphere I would go with Beach Club --- if you could get in at this point! There you would be close to Spoodle's (my second fav for bk), Flying Fish and all the great places in Epcot.

My sense of romance is one of more serene, calm, relaxing and getting to enjoy each other. So I vote for the Poly!
