INTRODUCTION TO THE TIGHTWAD’S GUIDE TO WHERE TO STAY AT WALT DISNEY WORLD
This site provides precise instructions elsewhere on where to stay at Walt Disney World. These instructions are designed for typical first time family visitors who are not sure whether or not they will ever return.
This page summarizes a series on where to stay at Walt Disney World for a subset of first time visitors: tightwads.
TOP FIVE TIPS FOR DEALS AND BARGAINS ON WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT HOTELS
1. What time of the year you go, and where you stay, have a bigger impact on your overall Walt Disney World budget than how long you stay.
For this site’s general advice on when to go to Walt Disney World, see this; for why “when and where” are so important, see this; for the single best time for tightwads to go, see this.
2. Disney World has hotels at several different price levels–for what you get in each price level, see this. At each price level there is a hotel that provides better value for money than the rest. See this page to see what these hotels are.
3. Except at the busiest times of the year, you can almost always find a deal on a Walt Disney World resort hotel–especially if you are flexible, patient, and persistent. See this page for lots of different ways to get a deal.
4. You can even get the highest-end deluxe rooms at rock-bottom prices. See this page for how to do so.
5. Although I recommend against it for first time visitors, you can also save a bundle by staying off-site. See this page for how to get started on picking your off-site hotel or vacation home rental.

Do you have any idea what kinds of discounts will be available for the end of Aug 012 and when they might be available
Angel–finding inexpensive rooms for a group your size on property is really hard. Multiple rooms at the Carribbean Beach is OK, but also see this page for large families: http://yourfirstvisit.net/2010/12/15/lower-priced-options-for-large-families-at-walt-disney-world/ , this page on staying off-site: http://yourfirstvisit.net/2010/01/27/the-tightwads-guide-to-staying-off-site-at-walt-disney-world/ , and this website for renting vacation homes off site: http://www.wdwvacationhomes.com/
