Hi all,
well this time last week we were just leaving the Magic Kingdom on our way up to Sanford and now... we're already planning for next year. We are hoping to rent points for a DVC stay (which will also be the first time any of us have ever stayed on Disney property!) We will be a group of 4 or 5 adults - me (21), Scott (early thirties), his parents (early fifties) and possibly an old buddy of Scott's of about the same age as him. We're all Disney veterans so we know how to get around the place etc.
After having a look around some of the resorts last week and reading up about the accomodations, me and Scott are now very interested in the Beach Club Villas (we originally liked the Boardwalk but have been swayed by Stormalong Bay!) I'd like everyone's opinions on the resort please, including those who have stayed in the hotel section as I know the facilities are the same. We're all big EPCOT lovers so the proximity is a major factor for us as well (me and Scott walked over from EPCOT last week, it's a lovely walk) - how do you find getting to the other parks/Downtown Disney? Is it at all noisy at night? The resort we just stayed at had karaoke going until well past 11pm every night and loud music kicking off from 7am which ruined the whole atmosphere.
Basically any and all opinions are welcome, good and bad to help us decide if this is the right place for us on our first on propert trip. Cheers!
