Need some help deciding where to stay on our next mother daughter trip in Dec of this year! We've been going each year for a while now, staying in moderates. A couple of years ago we got a great discount and tried the Wilderness Lodge at Christmas and had a great stay. This past Dec, we decided to try dvc rental and got a great deal, seems like a well kept secret, lol! We tried the Animal Kingdom Lodge and stayed at Jambo house.
We are now planning our next trip for Dec 2013 and are debating where to stay! We are trying to decide between an Old Key West Resort studio room and the Beach Club Villas. One thing that's swaying me is the cost for the OKW studio is about 400 cheaper than the BC studio! But, both are beautiful and fun and tropical. We don't swim much so the pool doesn't really matter. There are more restaurants at BC that we could go to, Cape May and Beaches and Cream in particular, but Olivia's is good, too, and we can still always go over to BC for the restaurants if we want to. I've seen some pics of the rooms - the beach club rooms don't really look very beachy, lol, they look rather old fashioned. And the old key west rooms, well i really like the older color scheme which looked more key west like, than the newer refurbished studio rooms. (We actually stayed there about 16 yrs ago, in a two bdrm, it was beautiful then!).
So, we are looking for some opinions on OKW vs. BCV , hoping lots of you will weigh in on this with some opinions on why we might like to pick one or the other for our Christmas trip! Thanks for reading!
