Sorry if this has been asked before... we're booked in a 4br Presidentail Suite, are these units located in every building? And are they usually the top floor or are they all over?

We would LOVE a fireworks view, but I know as renters we can't make requests, so we're hoping to just get lucky

We are also staying last week in October in a 4 bedroom Presidential unit. From what I was told there are 32 4 bedroom Suites. Tower 6 has 13 of them and the rest are located in towers 1-5 all on top floor units I believe. Also Tower 6 will be closed Sept,October,November for renovations. I'm really still hoping for pool/lake view for our stay. With Tower 6 down I'm not sure if ill get my request.

Considering staying here instead of onsite in November, if I can find availability. My one concern is whether there's a water slide--the hot tubs and lazy river are very appealing, but my oldest needs a slide. Can anyone confirm there is one?

Spanky · Aug 4, 2015

WBC has 2 different slides in 2 different pools.
WBC does not charge for parking, miniature golf, tubes for the lazy river, use of the grills, or wifi.
WBC does offer some events you can sign up to attend that do have a charge.
WBC does charge for the use of the cabanas at the pools.

I heard that you have to pay for parking, but its not really necessary. True?

Seriously, the fireworks view is way overrated. If you have to choose between a lake or FW view, pick the lake!

Parking is free, getting the parking pass is not necessary. It's a trap.

When someone posts they had to pay for parking at WBC

that is because they are staying at one of the *hotels* that are adjacent to the WBC Timeshare Resort.

They are posting in the wrong thread and/or they are confused.

Parking is *Free* for those who are staying in a WBC Timeshare.

Will Bell services hold your luggage at checkout until we have to leave for MCO? We are not renting a car and won't be flying out until late afternoon. Just now realized I don't know what I will do with our bags, lol!

Thanks a bunch! Sadly, Vacation Strategy was sold out for our dates this year, but WBC is first on the list of places I plan to look into for our next trip. It looks amazing! Gives me something to research during the time between trips

Don't give up! Start checking Ebay in September. We booked on site just to have a place but 60 days out we got a 4br presidential suite on ebay. There were lots of listing in the 60 days prior to our arrival.

Really? That's good to know. Hey it looks like we were there the same week in November last year

Check cheaptickets.com (owned by Orbitz) use promo code SUMMERFUN

I was also unable to book my dates through Vacation Strategic, Ken Price or Farrell, but Cheaptickets had them.

Ceryssa · Aug 5, 2015

They do have a bit of availability, but it's not much less than what I'm paying at YC. At least there I get free dining :/

MomTo3PrincessesInNJ · Aug 6, 2015

PARKING -- just in case anyone had the same question as I did....

We are driving our motor home down from NJ with another family (9 people total -- and yes, we have 9 seat belts) and we are using the motorhome to get to & from the parks everyday (free parking with our APs). I knew Disney had special lots/parking spaces for over-sized vehicles but I was nervous about finding parking @ WBC. We are 2 weeks out from our trip so I called WBC Guest Services and was told they have a separate parking lot at Tower 1 for RVs/Motorhomes/Trailers, etc. I feel SO much better now!

Even if we aren't staying in Tower 1 I'm just glad to know we won't have to drive around hunting for a big enough spot.

My plan is to have H drop me,the kids, and the other mom at our building, and then park and walk back with the other dad

sounds fair

Just booked a stay here for mid September.
We won't have a car.

I'm a saddo and really looking forward to doing laundry after aoa stay. :laundy:

Wondering about transport to and parks-how is this organised ?

Spanky · Aug 6, 2015

You will need to use taxi. That will also be expensive to get to airport at end of your trip. Check on price to rent car for entire trip. It may be cheaper than renting for your WBC stay. You can also pick up rental cars on property - gas station near MK, Dolphin hotel & one hotel at DTD all have cars for rent

My understanding is that there is a points discount starting 60 days out for any unoccupied or cancelled units. That's why you'll see them mostly 60 days out from resellers on ebay. The owner is able to rent it out at less points. Just FYI.

Thanks for your reply-however I don't drive.

Our transport to/ from airport is already organised.

Are taxis readily available at bonnet creek, or do we need to book in advance?
Any idea what the costs will be?

I don't think you need to rely on taxis. Unless something has changed recently WBC has busses that run on a regular schedule to the parks. However, they are something like $7 per person so depending on your party size it might not be the cheapest option.

We are staying at WBC for the first time in December...Will they allow us to check-in early if a room available? If room not available, can we still use the pools etc if we arrive early (probably around 1pm)?
