Over the course of seven days, I would hope to experience everything and feel satisfied that we accomplished everything.
Does this seem like a reasonable plan?

If not, I can save a couple of thousand dollars by switching to a regular room at the Royal Pacific and spending noon- 9 pm in parks every day to get it all done, and just eating in parks.

Me, husband, and two boys, 17 & 12. I want it to feel carefree and magical for my kids, and easy for my husband, since this will probably be our one and only trip to universal. They grew up Disney kids

With express passes this is absolutely possible!! you could make your own Touring plan to see if you can get everything done! Have fun!!

Yes! I think it is a great plan! Will you take a day or two for some mid day pool time too?

Have you already purchased your tickets? If not then buying one AP would get you a good discount on the room most likely just make sure it's not blocked out for your dates. I may be in the minority and there are only two of us but I'm not a huge CL fan.

With that many days you definitely will not have trouble getting everything done with express! I would rather take that extra money and eat where we want when we want in the parks/CityWalk. Are you also going to epic?

We literally just did this (except not Club level) at Portofino and had the BEST WEEK ever!! We usually got to a park around 10:30 and still found plenty of time for the pool. The only park we didn't feel like we did everything at was Epic

I think you can bc of EP except Epic. U need to just go early and stay all day. Even if u buy EP there it is hard to do it all bc rides break still. U need the early entry time at Epic IMO. Also, with boat or walking paths you could come and go as u like

Love Portofino. Easy back and forth if needed

Will you save as much money as you can potentially save with "food being paid for" in the Club Lounge at PBH? I certainly love the UO/hotel restaurants and food but you could eat every meal in the Club Lounge and be very happy!

That said, tough choice and I think it just depends on you and what you want. I prefer PBH over RPR but both are great hotels. And I also love eating at US/IoA/CW and other hotels, so it's hard to say. YES you can definitely get everything done!

EP makes these trips INCREDIBLE. You will be able to do everything more than once in that amount of time too.
