The we loooooove Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek Part 4

Does anyone have a phone number for the Bonnet Creek front desk. Want to confirm my reservation.
 
I'm looking at possibly booking with Vacation Strategy for December, and in reading through some of the posts I just wanted to get some clarification. It sounds like they do not put the reservation in your name until 7 days before check in, correct? Or at least that's what is supposed to happen. So if I call WBC several days ahead of time, they will look up my name, and if it's not there, Vacation Strategy has always been able to straighten this out? I was just curious as to whether or not anyone had ever still run into problems with their reservation after contacting VS. They have the best quote and best cancellation policy for my dates, so I would like to go with them if I finally bite the bullet and book an offsite trip.

In past DISboard posts ... there have only been a few reports of people not being able

to confirm with WBC the week before arrival (when Booked thru VS)


Use due diligence ... confirm the week before arrival.

So that would give VS time to correct it ... if there were a problem.


99% of the time everything is fine with a WBC via VS ... transaction/reservation.

But ... it is wise to stay on top of it.


Also a *Good Quote* today is subject to availability (tomorrow - etc)

I definitely like the Vacation Strategy *cancellation policy* (I believe it is the Best - WBC)

We are booked for a 4 bedroom Presidential this coming November, and ended up deciding to fly in Friday night instead of Saturday morning. I booked through VS and there was no rooms available for that Friday night, so we are staying at a different resort for one night. Our plan was to hit a park on Saturday morning and then plan to be at WBC for check in around 4pm. In reading this thread it seems like we may be able to check in early? Is it worth trying this, or should we just stick with our original plan? Also if we do try and check in and our room is not ready (which I'm guessing could happen since there are only so many 4 bedroom units), do they have a spot to store our luggage while we go to the parks, or would you not trust that??

I've been twice, first time we checked in very early (11am), the second time we had to wait until 4. Both were in September.

Thanks! I guess it might be worth giving it a try, or at least not worry about staying at the park longer than we want to.

Yes ... WBC does have Bell services and they will hold your luggage for you.

I trust Bell services at other places (Hotels) there is no reason why I would not trust them at WBC
 
We booked our first off site stay at WBC for the last week in August. We are traveling with another family, 9 people total (4 A, 5C). We booked through VS - I assume we got a "good" deal -- it was the cheapest I could find. Originally we were staying at Fort Wilderness and our friends were at AoA, so they are saving about $275 and we're spending an extra $200 or so, but staying in a large condo is much better than our motorhome (plus a washer and dryer?!?)!

On that note, does anyone know if parking our motorhome at WBC will be an issue? We plan to use it as our transportation to the park everyday, too (it has 9 seat belts so we'll all fit).

Looking forward to cathing up with this thread :)

Parking is usually pretty tight, and at the end of the day it can be hard to find a spot close to your building. I'd call WBC to ask, maybe they have special parking for large vehicles.
 
I just called to confirm our reservation and we are in Tower 6(3 bedroom Presidential suite). I know thats the Pirate ship pool building so it's a new tower for us. Come on vacation!
 
Just booked September 12th - 19th at Wyndham Bonnet Creek (through Vacation Strategy)!

We're West Coast transplants who know Disneyland and its resorts like the back of our hands, but now must get a new education in everything Walt Disney World since moving to the East Coast. I felt totally certain that we would stay on site and closely followed recent Free Dining developments until yesterday evening, when I realized that we would be paying $1200+ to get "free" dining for our party of five and we'd be crammed together in a relatively small room. (Did I mention that certain members of our party snore and talk in their sleep?) We have two small children, which can make traveling between parks a pain, so the new requirement to add on park hoppers added no real value to us. Bonnet Creek seems to make much more sense, right?

My understanding is that we will make any room requests at check-in? Any particular towers that are preferable (more recently renovated, centrally located, etc.)? Thanks for your help, and all of the information provided in this thread!
 
Hey Guys, we've always stayed at WBC, but it was all booked for our trip coming up in 2 weeks, so we're over at Wyndham Cypress Palms for the first time. It's our first time staying off-property (or WBC) as a family, so we're not sure what to expect. Has anyone been there recently? I saw they were going under a rehab, is that over now? Thanks!

It might be *better* to start a new thread ... with Wyndham Cypress Palms in the title.

Additionally try ... tripadvisor... to supplement DISboard reviews.

I did awhile back but no responces, so I thought I'd take a shot at the WBC thread since we had stayed there prior. Thanks!
 
Just booked out 3rd trip to WBC, September 6- 11! I got a pretty good rate by avoiding a Friday or Saturday night stay.
 
Just checked in for our first time. Gorgeous property. I asked for a newer renovated room and fireworks view, the guy at the front desk was super nice and putt us in 774, saying it had great fireworks view. Just questioning if anyone knows this is true, the room faces a parking lot and trees, which I don't care about if we can see fireworks. I just thought the fireworks views would face the lake for some reason.

That's a fireworks view. Stay tuned. :)
