2BR Christmas advice

[Lva5]

Hello, we're planning on taking a trip over Christmas with my parents and it's our first time staying in a 2BR. Four adults, a child, and an infant.

The plan was to do about a week long split stay at our home resorts (CCV, RIV) but we were only able to book:
Riviera: 21st 2BR-LO SV, 22-23 2BR SV
CCV: 24-25th 2BR

This is our first time booking a 2BR and they don't seem to be moving at all; we're used to studio availability which is constantly changing but larger groups staying at 2BR seem less likely to change their plans.

Any idea of our chances of rooms opening up at the 7MO window?
There's no chance of combining our 2BR LO res with our 2BR res at Riviera, correct?
Are there any 1BR with two bathrooms that are realistic for four adults? There used to be a helpful table with rooms and amenities (such as #of baths) but I haven't been able to find it.

That is a very busy week, but anything is possible, Both BLT and AKV Kidani have two bathrooms.

You can not combine the lock off and regular 2 bedrooms as they are different room types. But, put in a waitlist and keep checking. If you have the points, try to pick them up, even one at a time, and then have MS combine them into one.

Thanks for the reply.

Are you familiar with the chart I referred to? I thought it was in the resort section but I haven't been able to find it.

Is it this from the DIS resource center??

I can picture the chart you are referencing, but I can never find the info again unless I bookmark it, and sorry to say, but I did not save that one.

Waitlist the 21st in a 2bed SV and stalk the site. I’ll be in a 2bd PV at RIV the 20-23rd and got the nights one at a time by stalking and waitlisting. There may be some movement, but it’s small and popular, so other members will be trying to get rooms at 7 months too.

do you have enough RIV points left in your use year to possibly hold 2 rooms on the 22nd simultaneously? If so, I’d also waitlist the 22nd in a 2bd lock off, and if it comes through, keep the 21/22 in the lockoff and the 22/23 in the dedicated. Then waitlist the 23rd in a lock off and wait and see if the 21st in the dedicated or 23rd in the lock off comes through.

Also, check the site through the day. I got my last day by stalking multiple times a day. I had a waitlist, but the room showed up as available one day when I searched.
