Boardwalk villas location?

Yep that must be it! I'm not a member. Well either way the women was nice and noted the account asking for a pool view because she said the two bedroom villas only overlook the pool, courtyard, parking lot. No boardwalk? Well anyways i sure ill be happy either way. thanks for the response!

The rooms overlooking the Boardwalk ae reserved for DVC members paying with points.

Cash customers that want a chance of a overlooking the Boardwalk need to either rent from a member (11 months prior to arrival) or book at the BWI (hotel side of the resort).

CRO reservations do not specify a view. You get whatever members don't book. Members almost always book up boardwalk and standard view, so CRO reservations usually get pool/garden.

I've actually gotten the exact same studio, preferred view, above Muscles and Bustles twice now. It was on the top floor, 2 doors down from the elevator. It is an incredible location, but it was actually noisier than my boardwalk view villa!
I stayed on the 5th floor, boardwalk view in Oct, right over Big River Brew...it was pretty quiet and not a bad walk from the elevators..not a quick walk though.
The one time I had to pack a picnic lunch for the trip to my villa was when I was in a one bedroom villa, looking out over the quiet pool, towards the S/D. We were 4 doors from the tennis courts end of the bldg...235 steps from the elevator!!! Yes, I counted. Had to do something to occupy my mind as I trudged to or from the elevators. But, I have to say it was much quicker getting to the quiet pool or MGM because we could use the stairs at the end of the hall.

I really believe noise at BWV is relative. For us, it was noticable but not disturbing - even with the doors closed. But for my parents, who live in the middle of nowhere and are used to nothing but the noise of crickets, I would think what we found noticable would be disturbing - they find the sounds of traffic you can hear from my house disturbing - the freeway is a mile away. I think it also makes a big difference what schedule you operate on - if you are trying to get kids to bed from 9:00 pm (when Illuminations starts - and the fireworks are noisy throughout all of the Epcot area), through about 10:30 during busy seasons (when the last of the Illuminations crowds starts to clear the Boardwalk - visiting Seashore Sweets for Ice Cream, picking up a t-shirt at the shops, stopping by for a nightcap at ESPN, the Boardwalk can be a noisy place. If you are out in those crowds yourself, and heading back to your room at 10:15, you aren't likely to notice it at all.

The only time I had a problem with noise in a boardwalk view was when I stayed in a 1 bedroom over Big River on the 2nd floor last June. People stood out on the boardwalk talking and laughing (and drinking I assume) until past 1:00am. Other times I was on the 4th or 5th floor, it wasn't bad.

For the future how do i go about contacting those who do want to rent?
I know nothing of this membership. I have only been to WDW three times as a small child and this will be my first trip with my daughter. so im a lil rusty when it comes to all the latest things going on. DVC i assume stands for Disney Vacation Club? LOL

Did you have to listen to the ringing bell at the basketball toss until 11 like I did?? At least it stopped no later than that!! And I was on the top floor!!! But I have to agree...those leaving JellyRolls at closing could be a tad on the noisy side.

Head over to the Rent and Trade section of the DVC boards. You'll get a fair amount of info there, as well as seeing what people have to offer.

We stayed in room 4031 and it was a Studio with a Boardwalk view. This was our view of the boardwalk. It was a nice walk from the elevators each way but that's OK the view was well worth it.

We were on the 5th floor and I did hear that bell. The first couple nights I thought it was a phone ringing somewhere. My DH finally figured out it was coming from a game on the Boardwalk.
