I just looked. On February 1st there are still 2 dinner seatings available at Garden Grill at Epcot. if you want a character meal at Epcot. There is an 8:30 am Breakfast at Tusker house available on the 2nd at Animal Kingdom. If you think E will like characters those are both GREAT meals to do with him.
You're amazing. I didn't even know where to start to look for meals! If we were only going to do one character meal, which would you suggest?
Can someone explain the dining packages/free dining/all the options? Do you have a set number of meals that they deduct from your plan and you can eat whatever you want for each meal?
We will be staying at Coronado in late March/early April. I saw a few people have stayed there or are there now. Can you comment on the rooms/amenities/anything else? We plan to stay at the resort during the day for 2 or 3 days since my H will be at his work conference and its just littleOlive and me (he will be a bit over 2). Do the rooms have any sort of divider? I am dreading nap or bed time in a single room, he won't sleep if we are in the room, but we can't leave him. I am begging my H to get a suite so we have at least one bedroom to put him in and then we can stay awake and hang out in the room during naps/early bed times, but I know that will be pricey.
Thanks!
We're at Coronado Springs now. We're in a king preferred room or whatever it's called. The only divider is between the sink/closet (and the toilet/shower are in a separate room off that) and the main room. I wouldn't put the PnP there because you'd lose access to the bathroom, but it's big enough that we could sit and play on our phones or whatever in there until DD falls asleep. That's what we would do if we were responsible patents... instead we've been keeping DD up way too late and just putting her to bed at the same time as us.
We haven't really eaten here or done anything more than run around with DD outside yet, so I can't say much about anything else. DH walked over to the main pool and playground yesterday and said it's nice, though.

Tusker House has really good theming, but it's a buffet. That might be hard with a 1 year old ? I did it with DS at 13 months old & H was bummed he missed some of the interactions while he was getting food. The food a a little different ( emphasis on African & Indian spices in some entrees) than standard theme park faire
Garden Grill is sit down family style. Honestly the food isn't " fancy" but it is good. Turkey w/ stuffing salad w/ veggies grown on site, roast beef & tilapia. Kids Mac. & cheese & sweet potato churro fries are outstanding. I areore of DS' meal & he ate mine lol! The only downside is Garden Grill is in Epcot, so if you only eat at Epcot once you are missing all of the other food there ( and there is a lot & it's delish)
I would do Garden Grill just because it is more relaxed & less fast paced than some of the other meals. It has Mickey & the gang.
I'm staying at Coronado Springs this May so I am glad to hear from other posters that it's nice. I wanted to stay at POR again, but I got a much bigger discount for CS. rikki, what a great deal on airfare! have you guys already moved to Chicago?

My husband has been back and forth the past month and is there now and will pretty much be there the majority of the time from now on. I am still here because I need to work and I haven't gotten a decision from my boss about working from home there. I've been looking for something part time in Chicago, but nothing has come up yet that is a good fit. Regardless, we have decided that we will put out house here on the market February 1st. My goal is to be in Chicago by mid-January, but I am not sure if it will happen.
