AK GV or 3 1brs at BCV

[WDWFERN]

Hi all, just thought I would seek opinions on our split stay grand gathering trip. We (10 of us, 8 adults and 2 children) are currently bookedfor the first half of our trip at BLT in 2 2BRs and then the last few days at BCV in 3 separate 1 BRs. While I was on the phone with MS today adding magical express info, I inquired about GV availability and to my surprise they did have a GV at Kidani for the last couple days we are currently booked at BCV! So now I am wondering what to do. My family has stayed at BCV before and loved it and the location, but AK looks wonderful as well. I am also intigued by the GVs as they look amazing and it might be fun to have a nice place to all gather togehter at the end of the day. Anyhow, has anyone stayed in the AK GVs and if so how did you like it? I appreciate the input and any photos too!!!!

We own at AKV and love staying there. However I do not think the GVs are known for their views. If it is during warmer weather I would definitely stay at BCV for SAB. I think folks may also enjoy there own space for a few days at the end of the trip. It sounds great the way you have it now.

We only have stayed in a 2 BR at AKV but I think the resort and the room decor is amazing. My adult group all prefered AKV over BCV, including the pool. I own at BCV so we stay there more often but AKV is the family's favorite.

My vote would be for the GV. Have never stayed in one, but they look incredible. When we went last Feb, we have a 2 bdrm that my MIL and FIL stayed in as well. DH's sister, her husband and her daughter stayed in a 1bdrm. They were in our room every night with us playing games. I wish we all could have just been in a GV. Also, stayed at AKV - Kidani this past October and loved it - beautiful resort, fantastic pool and yummy food.

There are 6 GV at Jambo (these have the pool table), and 16 at Kidani (these are two stories).
