Best 2 Bedroom for Large Family (maybe?)

[tigergrad]

Planning a vacation to HHI and WDW in early June 2016. At the time of travel our family will consist of:
me and DH, DS (college student), DD, DSIL, DGS (6), DGS (6 mths) and DD, DSIL, DGD (2). The plan is for everyone to go to both places, but it might be that one DD and family join us at HHI and the other DD and family join us at WDW. My question is this, what WDW resort would you suggest for the best 2 bedroom for this scenario? I think would need a dedicated with 2 queen beds in the 2nd bedroom in case all of are at WDW together.

Only OKW is very different that the other 2BRs as the rest are similar. The living room at OKW and BLT are some of the largest. BLT and AKV Kidani each have three bathrooms in the 2BRs. OKW, BLT, AKV (with the exception of values) have pull out sleeper chairs in the living rooms and all sleep 9. VGF has a single murphy bed under the TV in the living room in a dedicated 2BR, sleeps 9. But with a VGF in a lockoff two bedroom, you get two murphy beds one in the living room of the 1BR and one in the studio, but then you lose the two beds in the studio portion (you have a pull out couch plus a queen bed) and it sleeps 10.

The kitchens at BLT and VGF are larger than the others if you plan to cook.

We took a family trip to OKW last year. Some may say the pool at OKW doesn't have the "wow" factor, but our 2 yo DGD would beg to differ. So glad for our choice. Also, I'm not sure, but I think OKW has the only full size washer/dryers vs. other resorts (I know BCV, for instance) which have the compact size. For DDIL, who had to do wash several times (the joys of 2 young children), I know she liked having the larger size washer/dryers so she could do fewer loads.

For a large family 2 bedroom I would always pick either Kidani or BLT. Huge 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms

These would be my two choices. We have traveled with bigger groups and the extra bathroom is a must in my opinion. OKW has the largest two bedrooms, but lacks the 3rd bathroom and keep in mind not all buildings at OKW have elevators and that might be difficult with the young ones and strollers.
