what one do you guys prefer the Beach Club Villas or Boardwalk Villas... i know both are on the boardwalk and very close to Hollywood Studios and Epcot but what one do you guys prefer?

Is this a "guys" trip, family trip, couple's trip?
 
its a trip that me and a few of my highschool friends are going on im booking with my family's DVC and we've never stayed at either (were 22,22,22,and 23)

Boardwalk would get my vote due to the age of travelers, there is a lot to do there, with that said, beach club is right there also. Not sure if the group is drinkers but a much better pool bar at boardwalk.
 

We prefer the theming of the Beach Club to BW. We also like that its quieter and that parking is more convenient.
 
Boardwalk is more of an adult leaning resort with a microbrewery and ESPN bar on the boardwalk. Beach Club has a cool pool with an awesome water slide. From Beach Club you can walk or boat over to Boardwalk and partake in the establishments, but you cannot use the cool pool or slide at beach unless you are staying there. I think there are a lot more younger families and children at Beach Club. That is just my perception.
 
BC is my favorite and DVC home resort, but considering the age of the group I would recommend the BW based on some of the reasons listed above.
 
While BCV would always be my personal choice, it sounds like BWV might be better suited to the group going. You're closer to the night life and have easy walking to both EPCOT and DHS.
 
The Beach Club has the better pool. It is a sand bottom pool with a lazy river. The Boardwalk has the better bar's. You have the ESPN Zone, Big River Grill and Jellyrolls. We are absolutely addicted to Jellyrolls. It's a Dueling Piano Bar that is open from 7pm-2am every night. They play live requests all night long, its a blast! Those would be the two deciding factors for me when I was 22.

We always stay at the Boardwalk, but they are both very nice resorts.

Have fun!
 
BW, so you can roll yourself home quickly/safely after a fun night at ESPN, the Dance Hall, or Jelly Rolls.

I also like the quiet pool at BW since it is still fairly close to the main pool bar.
