BWV checkin help?

[szymcl]

Does your whole party have to stand in line to check in to the villas? It's been a while since I travelled with a lot of people, so I'm not sure of the policy. I have some teens that would like to go right to the pool! They are over 18 though, so I wonder if they will need to show ID at check in. We are checking in to a 2 bdroom. Also, is there a place by one of the pools to change into a swimsuit, assuming our room isn't ready at check in? Thanks for any help!

I usually check in by myself while the family waits in the car. As long as the person checking in has their name on the reservation, shouldn't have a problem.

There is a couple of restrooms near the pool area where you could change into your swim suits if your room isn't ready yet. As far as the kids needing their room cards at the pool, the only time I've had to show our cards is when it is a busy holiday week. That is usually the same time that the "no pool hopping" rule is in effect and they check your id's and give you a wrist band.

Have a great trip!

As long as your name is on the ressie, you don't need anyone but yourself. You will need your driver's license, though, and a credit card. However, even that isn't a hard-and-fast rule--last time I checked in under my name(I'm the owner) I didn't have my license, so we used DH's ID, and they took it without any hassle.

Thank you for your replies! I guess they still give out the keys with the members name on them and the other guests sign them? By the way, are they still tinkerbell room keys or have they changed?
