So after a lot of debate we just changed our reservation a third time. We went from Dolphin to Pop, to BWV through Disney (not on points). Each location had it's plusses and minuses and while we had thought Dolphin would be a nice middle ground due to the cost, but great location there were so many unknowns. I was having trouble figuring out transportation as although my daughter can transfer easily, her wheelchair has tilt and does not fold so we still have to transport the chair even if we take her out of it. That and no clear response from the Dolphin on deliveries of medical supplies (would not commit to keeping things refrigerated or receiving oxygen concentrator before our arrival). There is also the added cost of package delivery there and we get frequent shipments, they charge by the weight too and IV fluids are heavy. So, knowing that we opted for BWV which was not in the budget but offered the convenience of the Epcot resorts and a bit more room than Pop and we travel with a nurse so having a little bit more room is helpful. Pop also had no accessible rooms without a King so since all three of us can't share a bed we could not book there in an accessible room. That said, we did not get an accessible room at BWV either since there looks to be enough room for her WC and supplies. I'm looking forward to being able to walk some of the time and get rid of the anxiety of waiting for the busses every morning. Last visit we often waited for 2 busses before they could get us on and it really ate into our park time since she doesn't last very long some days. Hopping this will facilitate some mid day breaks better.
So after all that I guess I'm asking if anyone who has stayed at BWV or even BWI has any advice. Just looking to make our trip as stress-free as we can. I know very little about BWV so wasn't sure if certain locations are better than others with a WC or if anyone knew anything about deliveries there.
