2013 Beach and Yacht Club FAQ: Don't Post Here! New Thread Now Open

[natebenma]

Happy Easter Everyone!

Already counting down the days til we arrive back at the BC again, and this thread has once again brought on full-scale pre-trip excitement!

Dee, you can add us to the BOG list...our dates are May 1-4, followed by a first-time stay at AKL. Counting the days....

Will do!

natebenma-Please add us to your list! We are going July 27th-Aug 3rd!

Got it!

If you know you want to be at WDW for 5 days/4 nights, but days are pretty flexible by 1 day depending on flights, is it easier to book 6 days/5 nights & take one day off later vs adding a day so you can get spring offer that ends today?

Also this would be a package w/ tickets & dining plan. I know you have 45 days to cancel, correct? Would there be an issue? So it would just be a matter of canceling 1 day once plane tickets are figured out.

I'm not positive, but you may need to be careful that changes you make are a modification to the package you have, not a change that requires a rebooking of your trip (which may no longer be subject to the promotion). I don't know what the impact of adding one day, or taking one away would mean.

Yes, with a package you can cancel more than 45 days prior to the trip, but you are not guaranteed that you can rebook under the same terms.

I am hoping others with more experience with the booking/rebooking process can you more definitive information.

Off to work this morning. Very sad to wake up and know Jeanne is 3000 miles away instead of in Florida.

Can't wait to see what all the guests got in their easter baskets.

Happy Easter my friend!

Happy Easter Everyone!

We are getting very excited about our upcoming trip...just 1 week and 6 days until we are in Disney!

We are currently booked YC CL GV. This is a reservation we've had since August, and we are super excited!! But, since this morning, I've also been a little confused...and here's why...

My husband mentioned that there is a pretty good CM discount being offered for the week we are there, on a select few resorts. He found out that for a few hundred dollars more for the week we can get a Garden Suite at the BWI, which also has CL access.

So, I'm just not sure what to do. I know nothing about the BWI. We've never stayed there and I don't know much about the Garden Suites. However, it sounds like they would give us a little more room, which would be nice with a 10 year old and a 13 year old.

I would be sad to say goodbye to SAB though...

You may wonder why I'm asking a group of BC / YC fans if I should switch to a different resort. But, over the last few months, I've come to learn that you are such a friendly and honest group. And, simply put, I trust your opinion.

So what would you do? Have any of you stayed in the Garden Suites at BWI before? I'm really puzzled. I know I'll be happy no matter what, but I need some good opinions! Thanks!!

And if memory serves, the last time it fell on Easter was about 10 or 11 years ago.

I love the boardwalk area! On our first trip to disney my husband and I went out one night and hung out on the boardwalk. I fell in love with the area.

My only issue was the pool. I just can't get past the clown. But I looked into the resort.... Love the colors and interior but one long hallway, uh ah! I like the lay out of BC/YC better. One of the complaints about BWI is the long hallway.

I think I would try and see if I can find out where the suites are located in BWI if it was doable and the discount was good I would go for it. If I was paying the same amount as my room in BC/YC I would stick with the original plan. That's just me. But I've been dreaming of staying at YC since we started looking into our 1st family disney vac in 2008

Happy Birthday!

Thank you! It's been a busy, but great day. And as a gift, I received a brand new camera that I will happily use for our August stay at BC!

A good problem to have! I have never stayed at BWI, so I don't have any advice for you. Pixarmom has stayed at both (YC and BWI), but she may still be away on vacation. She has posted comparisons to the two resorts in a prior thread, but I can't remember which one.

That looks great!!! Thanks for doing this. I think it was NinjaMom who posted the picture. I'll look on Page 2 to see if I gave her credit.

I can't help but notice how CLEAN your Mickey is. My older son takes that guy everywhere! Sometimes he will cry in his sleep and if you hand him a stuffed animal, he will (in his sleep) feel to check that it's that Mickey. If not, he keeps crying. The result being ours looks terrible, I just hadn't realized quite how bad it was.

HAPPY EASTER!!

Lol ! Mine's so clean because I don't have kids! Though my 3 yr old nephew loves sleeping with all my Disney stuffed animals when he stays the night!
