5 in a room?

[Pammy jo]

I'm just thinking way ahead to 2003 and where I'd like to stay. Could someone please help with a few questions? First off, next year will be the last year with only four family members (the baby will turn 3 by 2004) so we want to take advantage of any of the resorts or DVC's which only allow 4 to a room. (studio)
1)Can you put five in a 1-bedroom at most of the villas or do you have to do a 2-bedroom?
2)If you are staying at the WLV can you use the pool at the WL or is there a separate pool?
3)I know the OKW is a little bigger and since we'll have a crib we could use the room, but I'm not thrilled with the pool. Which other studios are roomy enough for 3 young boys?
4)I'm leaning toward WLV because of the resort activities. Anyone have any opinions? My boys will be 6,5,2.
Thank you for your help!

This is a very hot topic! Occupancy rates in a 1BR are the same for a studio: 4 plus a child under 3 years in the crib. If you want to follow the rules, you'll need to get a 2 BR for your subsequent trips. Plus, I think you'll be a lot more comfortable with a separate bedroom for your boys.

2)If you are staying at the WLV can you use the pool at the WL or is there a separate pool?

Yes! You can use the WL pool. There is also a "quiet pool" behind the VWL building which is also quite nice.

3)I know the OKW is a little bigger and since we'll have a crib we could use the room, but I'm not thrilled with the pool. Which other studios are roomy enough for 3 young boys?

I would say any of them are roomy enough now. In fact, the studios at VWL, BWV and BCV may be better for you because the 2nd bed is a fold-out couch that can be "put away" during the day giving you more room when you need it.

4)I'm leaning toward WLV because of the resort activities. Anyone have any opinions? My boys will be 6,5,2.

I also like the relaxing boat ride to the MK . BCV would also work for you. Your kids would love the pool!
