Whenever someone on Reddit asks about Shades of Green, I direct them to your channel. Best room tours!

🥹 you’re the best! Thank you so much….It really means a lot when you all share our videos, seriously! When we started all of this it was really important to me that we grow organically and through word of mouth from others who got something beneficial from the videos. Numbers on KZbin mean nothing if people don’t genuinely enjoy the videos or get something from it. So this really does help us grow and we really appreciate it! 🫶🏼

I just discovered your channel, and It’s so nice to see someone actually talk about shades and other military perks on KZbin! Thank you!

Well thank you and welcome! And thank you so much! That was kind of our inspiration for going this direction because when we were searching we couldn't find much either. We figured that if we are going to these places we may as well film it and share so families like ours can prepare better. So glad to hear its helping! Thank you very much!

@@battlegroundbiscuits yes! We love shades, but before our first trip we had no idea what to expect from it and thought we would be missing out on the Disney “magic” and that’s so not true! It would have been nice to see your tours to give reassurance lol

Thank you for this video. Our room mini frig froze our ice packs just fine and ice pops too. The rooms are so large. We always migrate to Shades even on a split stay due to larger rooms. I sure wish we had your room rate. Lol Ours is the highest and will be over $220 a night on an upcoming trip. I wish they would keep the prices lower. Thanks again and keep the videos coming. 😊.

The day after we filmed this we went to get our water bottles out of the fridge and they were half frozen lol They were laying under that little freezer (not inside it) so this one was particularly good lol. At this point I have to admit that we are just spoiled...its such a great deal to stay here so I completely understand! I would like to try doing some more split stays in the future but that price has us so loyal to Shades. Thanks so much for watching!

Thank you for the info. Are there any air conditions in the room? And any bus service to Disney magic Kingdom?
@battlegroundbiscuits Жыл бұрын
You're welcome! And, yes, there is definitely air conditioning in every room! I couldn't imagine Florida without it! And also, the Shades of Green buses go to the TTC (Ticket and Transportation Center) which is where everyone parks to go to Magic Kingdom. The bus ride is 5 mins and from there you will go through security and then you can get on the Ferry Boat or a monorail to go to the front entrance of Magic Kingdom.

when landing in MCO, can i take the Disney bus to get to SOG? will it cost me out of pocket?
@battlegroundbiscuits9 ай бұрын
From the airport you'll have to arrange transportation, out of pocket, to get to SOG. Disney busses do not drop off at SOG. A lot of people choose to book through MEARS but you could also use Uber or Lyft. There are even high service companies like Tiffany Towncar that will allow you to stop by and pick up some groceries before taking you to SOG. Other suggestions are Sunstate Transportation, Cast and Crew Transportation and The Magical Express who are all locally run companies with positive reviews.

Hi there! We are heading to our first SOG visit. The Palm wing looks quieter, which I like, but we don’t want to be far from the pool. How long is the walk (inside Vs outside) from Palm to the pool? Thanks so much for your informative videos!
@battlegroundbiscuits Жыл бұрын
Oooo thats a good question! I'm going to say its shorter to walk outside (across the courtyard) to get to the pool from the Palm side vs walking inside through the lobby...but sometimes that extra AC on the way is worth the few extra minutes LOL But honestly I'd have to say the difference would only be a few minutes...nothing drastic. I'm going to pay attention to this though the next time we are there and on the Palm side. Thank you so much for the comment! Hope to see you at Shades sometime!

What requests do you typically make when reserving a room at Shades?
@battlegroundbiscuits Жыл бұрын
Since Story LOVES the splash pad and pool so much we usually try to stay on the Magnolia side so we can be closer to that. Other than that we will ask for a room with a double vanity if theres one available. We have stayed in so many rooms by this point we are really ok with anything though lol
@jodiduncan5971 Жыл бұрын
We are planning a January trip, so not sure how much use we’d get out of the pool or splash pad unless we get lucky with a a couple warmer days. Think I’ll ask for the double vanity though. Thanks!

@@jodiduncan5971 you’re welcome! I get that 😊 I probably wouldn’t get in the pool in January either…but Story is a different breed and loves the water so much she will probably get in anyways lol The jacuzzi over at the Magnolia pool sure would be nice in January though 😉

Yes they do! We crank that puppy down too 😂 I will add though that it’s motion sensors so it will kick off at night if it doesn’t sense you in there. We like to get a balloon and weight it under the fan so that it moves all night…to keep the air running 🙌🏼

Is there a preferred side of the hotel to stay on? More convenient location? Nicer rooms? Closer to the coffee shop?
@battlegroundbiscuits Жыл бұрын
It really just depends what your needs are...the Magnolia side was most recently updated. The coffee shop (Java Cafe) is right there in the lobby which sits between both wings. We go over all of these in comparison in one of our past videos if you search our channel for Palm Vs. Magnolia wing :)
