Why not stay at the Swan? It's on Disney property, and you get most of the perks of being an on-site guest (no ME or room-charging privileges, though) for a fraction of the cost of a Disney-maintained deluxe resort. The Heavenly beds are to die for. The Swan has queen beds and the Dolphin has doubles. This resort would be a lot easier on your wallet and is in a better location than the moderates and AKL (neighbor of Yacht&Beach). You can walk or ride a boat to Epcot and DHS (Swan is slightly closer to the parks than the Dolphin). The resorts do lack hidden Mickeys, but there are still Disney gift shops and you can get a theme park view.

If you're a teacher or a AAA member, you can get a great discount, too (also check the DISboards and AllEarsNet for their regular discount codes on the Swan and Dolphin).
