There is another board that is dedicated to the CLs in all the resorts, they have some pictures of the offerings. I've been looking at that board, and it has helped a little bit.

Note if you go past rooms x123 you will be 'around the corner' in the yellow section and will be looking at the valet parking lot.

Can one point out on this map where the DVC standard studio rooms would be?

I can't on the map you referred to. But if you look at post #2 of this thread you will find what you're looking for.

I know this question has been posted back and forth regarding Luna Park Pool closing either Jan. 28th or Jan 2nd. But now that today is Jan. 4th, is it official that the pool is currently open and WILL close on the 28th?

We're scheduled to be there in 2 weeks. Thanks.

I don't think the menu changes at BWI with the season. I have some CL lounge photos on the first page HERE.

One more question... Refillable mugs. I'm seeing conflicting stuff about being able to get refills at the bel vue lounge. Do they do refills there? Anyone know if they will be doing refills at the temp bakery stand.

They did them when we were there 11/28-12/4. And they will give you a take out cup instead of filling your mug if you prefer. The bakery only did take out cups for refills.

Thanks! Glad I kept my ressie at BWI and didn't change.

So Bellvue did do the mugs, just in a takeout cup?

So are we! It's a bit of a hike for us from BWI over to SAB, but the combination of the BWI club lounge and SAB sounds great to us - it's a rare opportunity.

We faced the quiet pool once. It was definitely quiet until the boats started in the morning, but I don't remember that being a crazy hour of the morning (maybe 7?). We were on the 5th floor, which means there were only about 10 rooms in our little wing. Most of the quiet pool facing rooms are only four floors high. We faced DHS, if that helps. You couldn't really hear the pool, but it was January, so it was never very busy. But if you were on the other side of the "u", you would be closer to a vehicle bridge. I am not sure where it goes, maybe S & D, but it would have a little more vehicle noise. I don't find that the hotels have traffic noise.

The elevators are in their own bay, but you could request away from the elevator, though we had a bit of a walk. The bedroom of the villas is in the "back" of the villa--not on the hallway. Good luck.

Just want to make sure I'm reading this correcting - isn't the light green section the villas?
