Wow, all great answers. I can't think of anything to add. Those are all the things that make me an "OKW Lover".

The landscaping is beautiful. It just really seems like island time. Very laid back and relaxed atmosphere

Does anyone know what type of filters are needed for the in-room coffee maker? Don't know if this matters, but we will be in a dedicated 2 BR.

Parking at front door, and the large rooms and balconies.

Well said, John. I add the Key West theme and quiet setting.

Having breakfast on the big porch
Watching sunsets or sunrises from the big porch
watching the wildlife from the big porch
feeding the animals from the big porch
enjoying all the extra space in the units
relaxed atmosphere and colors
that "Florida" feeling to the place
friendly cast members
Olivia's
the living room with both a sofa and a love seat
the huge bathrooms!
The lush landscapes
the music!
The quiet pools and hot tubs

Flat bottomed Mr Coffee type 12 cup.


Oh yes and I love all the things already mentioned about OKW - far and away my favorite DVC resort.

Sitting on the balcony and drinking coffee before I start my busy day at the parks.

Spacious units and porches. 1 BR and up seem huge compared to other resorts.
Tropical feel - from the minute you check in you hear the island music.
Olivia's is a great place to eat.
The gurgling suitcase is a great place to get a drink.
You park outside your unit. SSR still has hallways but they're on the outside.
Golf course views.

We love the resort just not the flush of the toilet

What would you rather have it sound like? -- the theme from Rawhide perhaps?

The "aaaahhh" feeling I get when I walk in the door of my villa...or out on my balcony...or through the door of the Hospitality House...or into Olivia's...now THIS is a vacation!
