Fireworks from hotel

We currently have a CL room at GF for Dec, but I was really hoping to get a room at CR so that we could see Wishes from our room. We have a PIN code and currently unable to book at CR. Is there anywhere at GF to view the firework from? We have a 3 year old who goes to be early so actually being in the park for them might not work out. TIA!!!

We're staying at GF next week and I'm looking forward to viewing Wishes from the beach. You can also get a good view from Gasparilla's. I've never stayed in a MK view (only lagoon view), but I would assume that if you can see the castle, you can see wishes.

If you still want to have a room only reservation at the Contemporary I am sure that could be done, because the Contemporary is just sold out of rooms for whatever pin code you might have.

We've had theme park view rooms at the GF with great views of the EWP and Wishes right from our balcony. If you are in the main building concierge, you can request a room with a view of the castle and the fireworks. At the CL level, it's only a request, though, not a guarantee.

You can also watch the fireworks from various places at the GF, like at the boat dock or at Narcossee's.

The EWP sails right by the GF, too, so you can see that as well. Are there any TPV rooms available at the GF? That would guarantee you a view of the fireworks, I believe.
