I've never seen the Yacht Club rooms -- they look nice! And Concierge!
Yeah, they're really beautiful, especially now (they just completed a refurb a few months ago).
Doesn't it kill you to forget something in your room like that? You just reminded me of a similar story from our trip that I haven't put in my trip report yet. Hmmmm....should I? Or maybe the question is, did I? I may have to go back and re-read!!!
YES! It was killing me. I mean, not that it really mattered I was losing this $10 water bottle...it was just the knowledge that I'd been so stupid as to leave it that was eating me up!
(And I guess that's what happens when your TR reaches three billion pages...it gets hard to keep track!
)
I love the Yacht Club rooms!!!
I know, I wish I could be back there now!
I'm loving your review
I'm going on my first solo trip next May, and 5 nights of it will be spent at the YC concierge too.
Thanks! And
You're going to love being solo. I see from your siggie that you stayed at BWI last time...I'll be interested to hear how you think the YC compares, post-refurb.
Beautiful pictures!
I love the colors in the pictures of the room. What kind of camera/lens did you use?
Even looking through the trees, a view of SAB beats any view from work
Very, very true. A view of the dumpsters anywhere at WDW pretty much beats a view from work. I just got a new camera shortly before my trip...it's a Sony superzoom DSC-HX1. I didn't think I was quite ready for an SLR (in my mind, a "real" camera)...maybe in a few years.
Excited to read another update. Gotta be the same Warner, when we visited two years ago, I *think* he was the assistant manager at Beach and Yacht Club and was FANTASTIC. Remembered my kids names every time we walked in (which is impressive in itself) and even found a special pin my oldest DD was looking for and left it on her pillow one night with a note. We wrote a wonderful letter to Disney about Warner because he totally went above and beyond.
It must have been the same man -- how many Warners could there be? He was really great, and totally made my morning. I actually think it may have been because he was so friendly that I got started on my next phase of chatting to CMs (and other guests, and anyone who would talk to me), which did make the rest of my trip even more fun!
I'm torn on your view as well, although the first picture was really lovely, but that second pic would have totally ticked me off too.
Yeah, I know my not-liking-pool-views thing is really a personal preference on my part. But the ugly roof really
was the view...it was impossible to ignore. I still enjoyed sitting out there, though, and I learned an important lesson to be more explicit in my room request next time.
Love your room at YC! And I agree with you about the changes to the room decor--much better!
Isn't it? I mean, I loved the YC before, too, but let's just pause a moment here to consider the differences between these two rooms:

Thanks for the super fun TR! I stayed at the Yacht Club for the first time in September, and loved the luscious room decor.
Thanks, and
