BC - Nice view or Full balcony

[Kanga1]

Trying to decide which request I should put first on my ressie (knowing full well that it is just a request.) For all you BC fans out there...which do you enjoy the most...a nice view or a full balcony? We can only afford a standard room, so water view is out of the question, but we'll be there for 2 weeks. Hoping to spend a lot of evenings hanging out at the resort and using a balcony.

View or balcony?

That's a Catch 22 isn't it? You want to spend time on your balcony but not if you're staring at the parking lot?

If the outdoor space is very important to you, I'd request the full balcony. Have you been on the BC FAQ thread? or any of the reviews that talk about buildings specifically? You can often get a heads up on which buildings have decent garden views and which don't. I know Poly's thread works this way.

Go to YC and you totally get a balcony . We had standard view, but I guess we got upgrade to the quite pool view.

If it were us...we'd request the full balcony vs. the view. The only reason we stayed at the YC over the BC was the full balcony. IMO its all one big happy resort anyway.

That's a tough one. I really wanted a full balcony when we stayed there and I put that request on our reservation. We ended up getting upgraded to a water view with a standing balcony -- I was okay with that trade-off.
