Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

[SRUAlmn]

Ok, so I have a totally random question.... Is the side of the tower and BLT with the pools the Eastern side? I ask because we're thinking of taking quite a few days and spending the whole first half of the day at the pool and resort and then going to the parks in the afternoon and evening. (Thanks to FP+ and the fact that we spent quite a lot more on our accommodations than we normally do, we should actually take some time to enjoy it ) I just wanted to be sure we'd have sun during the first half of the day and we wouldn't be in the shade Thanks!!

We booked a Bay Lake View. It's one night and it sounds pretty. DH said Tower, so that was my compromise. Who knows, maybe we'll be pixie dusted! The CM entered in all our celebrations onto our reservations.

joining in!

just put request in last night for DVC rental, standard view studio at BLT for my DD 15th birthday/spring break trip 2015 we should here back hopefully in a few days if we got our ressie!

my DD has wanted to stay here for a couple of years and our friends we are going there with own BLT points so will be fun staying at the same resort as them! we are already decided to have a more low key trip this time, (this is our 8th trip to WDW) enjoy some pool time with our kids (two 15 year olds and one 11) and of course Flower & Garden which we went to in 2011 and loved, can't wait to try all the yummy food pavilions too!

can't wait to stay so close to MK! we've been lucky enough to watch Wishes from Top of the World on two previous trips with our above friends and love the view of the lake!

Is there a Rapid Refill station poolside? I really just want the cups but have to justify the expense to DH..,.

You can just buy the cups with no option to fill them for a cheaper price. That's prob what I'm going to do since I rarely fill it and my husband always teases me about buying a refillable mug that I never fill

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I don't know why I like them, I'm not a souvenir person. But I like these mugs!

I saw that. Thanks. I don't know if that will give me enough time to get to the breakfast though.

I would take a cab to the BC. Walk through the main lobby, go to the left toward Epcot and enter the park through the International Gateway. (Near France) It's a much shorter walk than entering the park at the main entrance.

Actually, BC to Akershus and main gate to Akershus are just about the same distance (about a mile).
