(CLOSED) Disney's BOARDWALK INN and VILLAS Information Thread ~2012~

You can ship from the business center also, we have done that several times. They charge a fee for that too, I can't remember what it was, but you can do it.

This is what I would suggest. Maybe stop by early in your stay to make sure you know center hours/pricing, shipping options and pickup times.

Fantastic! Thank you! Now to hunt down the business center!!

DBF and I have a cash reservation at the BWV. What should we request? We booked a standard view. We stayed at BWI last Decemeber and loved it. We will be there Oct 11-15. We are going to do F&W and MNSSHP . The only ADR we have is for Flying Fish. When we stayed on the Inn side we had a great view of the Eiffel Tower and the fireworks.

If its a choice between Pool view or Village Green, I definetely would recommend VG. Nice views also partial view of the BW.....And If you get the 3rd floor as stated in an earlier page, they have some of the Biggest, ( AND I MEAN Big) balconies....

Staying in the Villas with rented points...Just wondering about beach towels. Are they provided by the pool? I was hoping we wouldn't have to pack our own.

There are plenty of towels by the pool, you can leave room in your luggage for all your extra purchases .

just hit the 19 day mark. was just thinking of how i get so teary eyed when we pass a group of condos (the right side, where you can see a lake with a fountain thru their open stairway) on DME.
and then passing the hess station, and finally the arch announcing B O A R D W A L K......all sightings leading up to another fantastic vacation

I paid my balance off last week, and I am so excited to go back to BWI! Getting closer,, a little over a month away.

Balance paid off is the best feeling! Won't be long till you're at F&W.

Hello All!
We will be going back to the BWI in November and are very excited! We booked a standard - club level room. We requested a BW view. I'm just wondering, about how many standard, club level rooms overlook the BW? Just curious to see what our chances might be.
Thanks!!

We're leaving in a few days for Boardwalk and I was wondering if there are towels provided at the pool? We have no parks scheduled for arrival day, and are packing our swimsuits in our carry-on so we can spend the afternoon at the pool and not have to wait for the luggage to be delivered, or to wait until our room is ready.

We've done this every trip but have only stayed at the moderates - and they had towels. Anyone know? I don't know if the carry-on will fit under the seat in front of us with four suits AND four towels crammed in!

Also, does anyone know where the campfire takes place at Boardwalk? We're thinking about that on arrival day, or maybe heading to Beach Club for the movie on the beach.

So excited to stay at Boardwalk for our first time!

Hopefully someone here can help...

Do they still do face painting on the Boardwalk? If they do, does anyone know the hours?

We're staying at BWV and would like to have our faces painted prior to MNSSHP. We aren't planning on any parks that day so I don't want to use up a day's admission just for face painting at Epcot or HS. I also don't want to be late to the party if the face painter is only there late in the evening. (I sure wish they'd bring face painting back to MK, even if it wasn't the free party painting they used to have, and I had to pay for it.)

TIA for any information!

Did I miss an answer to this? Would also like to know if there is facepainting on the BW? Would love to do this before MNSSHP, too!
