Best DVC STUDIO for Five

[Carolynleanne]

We're looking at heading back to our Happy Place in early 2020. We've stayed at Beach Club multiple times and love having access to Stormalong Bay and being walking distance to Epcot. I'm of the opinion that if it aint broke, don't fix it but my husband wonders if we should try something different. Which is your favorite DVC resort that sleeps 5 in a studio besides BCV?

Poly

OKW - lots of space

Does OKW sleep 5 in a studio?

Not unless one of the 5 is an infant under the age of 3. There's a portable crib (similar to a Pac 'n Olay) provided for the infant.

I was of the understanding that OKW only slept four in a studio. I'd totally stay there if it did though!

OK, I didn't think so.

Wouldnt THAT be nice though. As much as I'd love a one bedroom, as Canadian we've got to make up for that horrible exchange rate

I think Poly is really a great option for 5. I wish they had done 2 toilets instead of 2 showers but otherwise it works well. My nearly 5ft tall middle schooler fit great on the pull down bed.

VGF is great. Stay there now before the points chart goes up!

Doesn’t OKW have the sleeper chair in addition to the 2 beds?

Nope.

They have the sleeper chair in the 1 & 2BR's. Studios only have 2 queen beds and are occupancy of 4 plus 1 under 3.

Best for 5 in a studio? I'd say PVB.

I would go with BWV nice resort in walking distance to Epcot.

Poly is also nice but not a fan of the theming.

We have only stayed in a studio in BWV and VGF. Either of those are a nice option. I prefer the VGF just because you have two showers and multiple people can get ready at once.

I know some studios have 2 toilets but for those who stay at the older resorts, how do you manage the 1 bathroom with 5 people? I've been considering breaking up my family since there's no availabilty in a 2 bedroom but I think 5 adults ( in a 1 bedroom), and 1 bathroom would be a struggle.

My Bad! Thanks for the clarification..it’s been a long time since I stayed at an OKW studio

Poly...a good amount of space plus 2 showers

Choose a one bedroom with 2 bathrooms? I’ve stayed in a studio with 4 adults and we had no issues, some work better than others though. Like Jambo studios are better than kidani due to how the bathroom is set up (sink outside the toilet/shower at Jambo).
