Love your view! That water looks gorgeous.



Is that entire long balcony all yours?!

I've never gotten a Disney rash....what the heck is that?!

I'm only on page 4 of your thread. Trying to get caught up now that I'm home....

Balcony- All ours. Every room had an ocean front view.

Disney rash- Not exactly sure, but whatever I get seems to fire up with humidity and outdoor activity or chlorine.

What are the bands for?



Right?! Such a strange "contribution" to this thread.



I need to find out if they have one for Wilderness Lodge because I didn't see one during our visit. We do have the Grand Cal one though. We actually put it on our tree but leaving it out year round would be nice too!

Sparkly Band- you’re required to get a band every day to show that you are a resort guest. DVC-Y members get a sparkly one.

Fun fact. Last year was my first time there and I totally forgot I had read about the bands. I noticed others with bands very late on the afternoon of the second day. Nobody said anything to us. It was October, so not peak season at least.

I’m sure that happens to a lot of people. A lot of the time my bands were covered by a sun or swim shirt….
