Castle, geyser and EWP view from WL room?

[mistaroo]

Is it possible to see it all- the castle, geyser, and EWP- from a WL room? Or is it one view or the other, not all in one?

And if so, are these views possible from a jr suite (deluxe room).... or should we book two adjoining rooms and hope for the best?

We booked a jr suite and our 2-yr-old DS wants to see the Electric Water Pageant from our room (so we don't want a solid balcony). This is our first trip to the WL and we're celebrating our other DS's first birthday so we want an extra special room view. We're all excited (and a bit nervous) about our first WL experience. Thanks for reading this!

I've only stayed there once, so I'm certainly no expert, but it seems to me that the way the place is situated you can't have it all.

I'm not sure any of the rooms have a "castle" view, although you can see the MK fireworks from some of them.

We definitely had a castle view from 6034 in November 2003, woods view, north side. But we could not see the EWP or Geyser.

Possibly the only ones that could see all 3 might be the Junior suites, as they are at the very end of the hall.

How is the concierge service at the WL? We're thinking about going there this time, but I'm still a bit undecided.

It would not be possible to see all three of those things from one room.

I also would recommend watching the EWP from the boat dock for the best view.

If you want to make the trip really special I would suggest going with concierge. We did it last year at the WL and it was really great. Much better than any special view.


Here's my concierge trip report from the WL: http://130.94.75.33/showthread.php?threadid=486921

Thanks for posting your info. We considered concierge but didn't book it because we definitely do not want a solid balcony and all the concierge rooms have them. If it would be possible to stay concierge level but on a different floor (with adjoining rooms and a nice EWP view) we would do it. I was thinking that like Ilovewdw2003 said, the jr suites have the best views.

I agree with you, concierge service is fantastic and we love it! Unfortunately, for this trip room view will win out over concierge as we'll have a one-year-old and a two-year-old with us and we'll spend a lot of time in the room.

Thanks for all the replies so far Anyone else have any input?

we stayed in 5166-a jr suite/deluxe room. we could see the parade
but i had to hold our 3yo up because it was a solid balcony. we could also
see the some of the geyser & the fireworks.
we had concierge access & it was ok but it was sooooooooooo far to
the lounge. the dlx rooms are very far from the elevator and to get up & back to the lounge was a hassle-imo.

Afraid not the castle is to the Northwest of the resort and the lake and geyser are on the east side of the resort.

Please do not get your heart set on a certain room location. Requests are never guaranteed. Also adjoining rooms will not share a common door. Those rooms are "connecting" rooms. Adjoining will be next to each other without a connecting door between them. Also connecting rooms are a request. The one way they will guarantee them is when you only have one adult in the group. They will try very hard for families, but that would have to be your number one request which could limit your view choices.
