We also go for 10 days minimum in a 1 or 2 bedroom. These days it is usually a split stay so it is 2 reservations. Back in the old days it was 11 months from your checkout time, instead of your checkin time. This is even before online reservations. I would call MS and get the initial reservation. Then call every mornin
Same! Our pick for Resort Only is AK Jambo House. Of course a lot can be said for almost any resort!
looks like they are. I think this is the new DVC floor plans. They are also similar to DLH. For a different layout you will have to stick with the older resorts such as AKV or BWV.
Bingo. I agree. It also screws up the Bay Lake skyline as well as Fort Wilderness. The Rooms look nice and the pool area also looks cool, but with that many rooms, it maybe just wall to wall people. Not My Thing. Anyone else not like the new 1/2 BR floor plan. I dont like the kitchen just being a long wall of cabinets.
Wow late to this party.. We took our grandkids and their parental units (our DD and soninlaw) to BLT in a newly refurbished 2 bedroom theme park view. It was a big step up from pre-refurbishment. Love the new hard surface floors,, everything is nice and fresh. The wall art is fantastic. Couple of things that were not s
Welcome to the Comma Club! We are also mulling adding on more points at AKV or adding yet another Home resort at SSR for the Tree House Villas. Addonitist is real! Love playing the what if games.
OK SSR Owners, I need a bit of your wisdom. Way back in 1996 we stayed at the Tree House Villas. Of course it was not DVC back then and SSR was still the Disney Institute. Good TImes! I looked at videos of the recently refurbished Tree Houses and wow. Very nice! I showed my DD and my Grandkids (ok the Grandkids Mom). S
I gotta second Christmas Day at MK. It is not very magical. I feel fortunate that we escaped with our lives and children intact. That being said, MVMCP is a really must do. We usually head in to the park a bit early. But not so early to be part of the initial crush. It can be a bit intimidating seeing everyone queued u
AKL has multiple bus bays, which helps a lot. Seems like the buses run pretty often and usually there are multiple buses at the stop. We never had a problem with bus service at AKV. However, at BoardWalk, it shares the bus with Yacht and Beach Club. There is only 1 bay at the bus stop. I have seen buses stacked up wait
75 Days!! Split stay BLT, BWV and MNSSHP thrown in! Just us no kids or grandkids!
Bummer really. Sorely needs an update.
Wow, Great Question. I think it all boils down to where you want to stay. Resort availability at 7 months can be rough, so I dont get the concept of Sleep Around Points these days. Currently we have 3 home WDW resorts. Initially we thought it would be hard to manage, but it really has not. We tend to stay for 14 -15 da
I tend to agree with the trust. However we do not have a trust and really just did not think to form one. The California properties had the spouses sign and notarize a form stating that they held no interest in the property. (Extra Fee of course!). However we do live in a community property state as well, so may be moo
Parking is across the street by Pixar. When we were there last, the lot was undergoing construction so they sent us to the Pixar Parking Garage. We just used Valet instead. It was a splurge, but worth it. There is an underground lot, but I believe you are correct that is valet.
Congrats and Welcome Home! Hope you love it as much as we! Taking our Grandkids for their First DLR trip in April. They are WDW vets at this point. I am excited to how they like it!
From last years Flower and Garden, with an AK thrown in.
OK sorta off topic, but we love OKW for the privacy as well. It is more like a Condo complex than a hotel. It is always our go to for 7 months. now back on topic. I think the new rules are great, at least on the surface. It will be all about how it is implemented and enforced. Fo far it sounds very reasonable. We alway
Wow, sorry for tough trip. Normally WL has such a great vibe! One of our favorite resort hopping stops.
