    The Manhattan Club

    We stayed there last year. The room decor was a bit dated, I wasn't crazy about it but the size was good. There is a small dorm size fridge, microwave and sink. The location was great. The staff was very helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much.

    VGC June, 2011 Reservation Holders - Question

    Also, studios and 1 bedrooms book up faster than 2 bedrooms. So if you call on your 7 month mark first thing in the morning you should be ok.

    Club 33 dining question

    You can have the person that made the reservation for you call and tell the Club what restrictions you have. Or if you don't tell them tlll the night you are eating I am sure it will be fine too. They are very accommodating. We have been there and one of our friends was vegan and it has been no...

    Club 33 questions

    I have been for both lunch and dinner. I have seen posts where people say they like lunch more, because they can eat a bunch of seafood off of the buffet. And in terms of value since lunch is partial buffet, you can get more food for your money at lunch. But I like dinner better. It seems more...

    Selling a contract and rebuying a new one?

    Last year we sold one of our BWV contracts to buy more points at the Grand CA. We live in CA and wanted the 11month booking advantage here. We did keep one contract at the BWV so we still have a booking advantage at one property in Fl as well. And we originally bought in 1998 so we didn't loose...

    Club 33-we decided no.

    I know you have decided not to go, but two things in case you get an opportunity in the future. You cannot apply your ticket to buy an AP. The ticket says complimentary on it and is not good for upgrading. 2nd thing is they will split bills at the end of the meal for you if you need them to.

    The complimentary pass that you receive for dining at Club 33 to enter the park will be good to use in the fast pass machines for regular fast passes just like any other guest of the park.

    Club 33 - FastPass Benefit

    It is only for the member, because they get the passes out of the fast pass machine with their actual membership card.

    Grand Californian Availability

    I live in San Diego. It usually only takes us an hour and 15 minutes to get to Disneyland. But during Friday night work traffic it can take 2 and a half hours. SO they just need to be mindful of what tim,e of day they are driving. And the traffic to San Diego should not be as bad as LA traffic.

    The holidays are an extremely busy time for the Club. So even if you find someone willing to make a reservation, getting s reservation time may be difficult.

    Club 33- First Visit Ever!!!

    In my opinion the dress code is pretty casual. I think that is because it is inside a theme park. At no time can you wear tank tops, beach attire, flip flops, bare midriff tops. For lunch shorts are ok, but they are supposed to to longer walking lenghth, not super short. For dinner pants...

    Club 33- First Visit Ever!!!

    Actually Sunday lunch is different than other days in that it includes a glass of champagne or sparkling cider and Mickey and one other character (usually Pluto) walk around the dining room. So if you just want one drink you can have the champagne that comes with Sunday lunch.

    Club 33 - tell me about lunch!

    Maybe the person who made you the reservation didn't leave you passes because they knew you had APs, but passes are always included. Since you are doing a late lunch, you can do a very lite dinner, if you eat dinner at all. For lunch you order a plated entree, but there is a buffet of all you...

    Dramamine on Ship?

    I was also going to suggest ginger pills. My husband takes them. They have always worked for him. And then he saw an episode of Mythbusters for cures for sea sickness, and they proved ginger works as well.

    Palazzo, Wynn or Venetian?

    I have stayed at the Wynn in the Tower suites. Nice rooms and great service. Stayed at the Encore too, which is right next store and sort of part of the Wynn. I liked the rooms better then the Wynn, but the service at the Wynn was better. It has been years since I have stayed at the Venetian and...

    Fashion help please!

    I am one who always packs way too much. I love clothes. I would never wear black shoes with a navy dress. Navy shoes or a metallic would definitely go. If you go with the metallic they would go with more outfits than just the navy dress. Also as far as formal night. I consider formal floor...
