BWV and dedicated 2nd bdr

[jane51]

Doe BWV have 2nd bdr that has 2 queen beds, usually called a dedicated bdr?
We stayed in a 2 bdr several years ago and cannot remember what we had.

Thanks!!

No - all of the 2 bedroom units at BWV are lockoffs. Thus, all the second bedrooms have 1 queen and a sleep sofa.

There are some dedicated studios and some dedicated 1 bedrooms, but no dedicated 2 bedrooms.

BWV has no dedicated 2BR, so the second bedroom at all BWV is a studio with a queen and a sleeper sofa.

Thanks for the info!! I wonder why Disney made BWV without any?

Some of the owners who have owned for a long time might know the answer, but I do know that it's the only DVC resort at WDW that doesn't have dedicated 2BR villas.

I'm sure that the lock-off configuration provides the highest degree of flexibility for DVC to book rooms (and therefore get as close to 100% occupancy as often as possible).

Perhaps after building OKW they encountered some problems with matching the right number of dedicated villas to member demand? In other words, they might have had dedicated 2 BR villas that they couldn't reserve at certain times of the year since members wanted more 1BR & studios?

Just guesswork on my part. More interesting is that when they built VWL, BCV and SSR they added the dedicated 2BR back to the mix.

I suspect that the lack of dedicated twos increased their flexibility. But people wanted dedicated twos so they put them back in the mix.

The flexibility certainly for Disney makes sense. I sure am glad that they chose to add them to the rest of the resorts!!
