Hi, everyone!
May I join this thread?
We were originally booked at the CR for 9/14 through 9/24, but we've decided to add some beach days to our trip & change resorts.
Now, we'll be arriving in WDW on 9/18 (still through 9/24). We're currently trying to decide between the Beach Club & a FW cabin.
My main concerns w/ the Beach Club are as follows:
1. We'll book a gardenview room, so I'm worried our room will be far away from everything,
2. We may or may not have a full balcony,
3. The lack of a true quick-service, and
4. The bus to & from the MK
How about long is the bus to the MK in the mornings (for MK rope drop)? Previously, we've always stayed at the CR, the WL, or FW. The bus stations at MK after "Wishes" always look so jam-packed & crowded to me - it's been nice to just walk straight out of the MK to the WL/FW boat dock.
Also, you can get your refillable mugs filled at the Marketplace, right? Are there some rooms that are more convenient to the Marketplace?
I'm concerned about the location of our room because our 2 older kids are old enough to go to the quick-service by themselves (to get a snack or drink), but I'd rather our room be close, if that makes sense.
We're a family of 5. I would like a full balcony w/ a room w/ a nice view that's not terribly far away from everything.
What kind of room requests will I need to make?
Thanks so much!
While I'm a little sad that our WDW trip is going from 10 days to 7 days, I'm also excited about the possibility of staying at the Beach Club. I've always wanted to stay at an EPCOT resort.
I also think, if we do decide on the Beach Club, I'm going to switch our Chef Mickey's breakfast to the Cape May breakfast - we've never done the Cape May character breakfast, so that'll be something new for us.
