2011/2012 Beach & Yacht FAQ, Part IV- DO NOT POST- see new 2012 thread

[blueeyesrnc]

2 more days until we are back at the BC! We are so excited!
I am planning on bringing my iPad with me, and will try to update while there. Is there anything specific that I can check out for anyone? We will be in a water/pool view room and will be there until 3/2.

Have a great time. Don't forget to post some pics when you have a chance.

Will do madame! I plan to get there earlier than my dinner meeting to make this happen.

Did anyone happen to see a Beach Club Shrimp Fork in the resort merchandise section??

..... just wondering....

Good morning everyone Just catching up on thread. So happy they've got in BC merchandise. We were at WL in Jan, and went for a visit to BC, to see if they had anything yet, but no luck. Also had to get my BC fix. Missing it!
We return to WDW in Aug, so far 12 nights booked at AKL from Jan. BB offer.
Thinking of a split stay with BC, but have to wait awhile to see about finances. We may be having a teachers strike which will hit my wallet Maybe a great AP rate will come out!

Getting crazy excited here! We're just under 2 months! This week is our February school vacation week so when the kids go back to school next week, we'll be in the home stretch for April vacation!

We check in on Wednesday!!

I have a coffee maker question - I know they are pod-type makers, but can you use them to heat water without the pods? I'm not familiar the type of machines they have in the rooms.

Well, in 3 days I can start checking the weather for our upcoming trip. That will still be 2 weeks before the trip, but daily weather checks are part of the anticipation. I just hope the weather cooperates. Looking so forward to warmth and sunshine.

I do the same thing even though it is a ways out I like to see if sunshine is in the forecast. I usually start checking 2 weeks before. Hey they have it posted so why not.

I wish you plenty of beautiful warm sunshine for your trip.

I do not have first hand knowledge but have gleened from reading this board that yes, you can use the coffee maker to just put out hot water. Didn't want your question lost in the suffle of everyone's happiness. Have a great trip on Wednesday.

Hey y'all

Trying to plan a last minute trip to Beach Club Easter weekend and the week after. I am expecting huge crowds.

can anyone give me info about Easter day? Just trying to decide whether to head to a park or sleep in and spend the day by the pool.

Thanks! Shannon

We just booked our stay at the BC Aug. 21-31. I'm reading all about it and getting so excited. It's our first deluxe resort!

One question and this may be covered already but I haven't been able to find it yet. I've read that I must request a day bed. If we are a party of 5 is it still a request or will we have one automatically?

Hopefully, someone who has been to Disney during Easter can answer your question.

Families of 5 are given priority for rooms with daybeds. I believe you have to be given a room that is designed to fit your party. The only catch is that any children under the age of 3 are not included in this count, according to my understanding.

So if one or more of the people traveling with you are under age 3, then it would be best for you to add a request for a daybed.
