Really seem to be excellent value especially when certain promos are available. I’d recommend checking some vacation package offers as they can be much cheaper than separate flight and hotel bookings — I was able to get the nightly rate down well below $200/night (before tax & fees) in some instances and at least $100/night lower than the regular rate in other instances.

One thing: The Swan & Dolphin are not actually Disney-owned and operated, but Marriott. They have a special relationship w/ Disney that makes them very similar to other Disney resorts. That’s probably why you experienced those couple of discrepancies you might not at Disney-owned resorts. But that’s probably also why there are some extra opps for promo offers that aren’t usually available for Disney resorts.

Cheers!
