I am looking for advise on room types and requests. I'd like a 4th Floor, Large Balcony, close to Epcot room that I saw on this thread earlier, but I am am confused on what type of room that would be - Standard or Garden view. It seems to be a garden view since you are looking at trees and that is what the "TouringPlans" room maps indicate, but I have seen others post that those rooms are "Standard" rooms. Can anyone help clear this up for me?
Thank you so much, shorewood! That was just what I was looking for - it seems to confirm the touring plans maps and room views. Looks like I need to book a garden view to get that 4th floor view towards Epcot.
One more question - is there a map to indicate which rooms have 2 queens with the daybeds?
Thank you, Sue, for the tip about the "Enclosed Balcony" being smaller rooms - and possibly too small for the
daybed. Those we be all the 4th floor balcony rooms facing Epcot, I believe. We have two teens, so the daybed (an a little more room) would certainly be nice so one doesn't have to sleep on the air mattress on the floor.
Now I am even more unsure what to book and request, though! Hope someone comes through with a map showing the daybed room locations at BC.
to the thread!
Let us know if you book a stay at the resort.
Thanks to everyone who has helped to answer your questions.
I don't expect that we will be seeing a map that shows the bedding/daybed availability in rooms. We were lucky to get the detailed map that we have, due to the fast action of one of our friends here.
Our best advice is to add a request for the features of the room you want rather than requesting a particular room or rooms by number. That way the room assigner will know what is important to you. List your requests in priority order, and if possible limit your request to 2 or 3 to increase the likelihood of getting what you want.
For example: "Daybed please. Full balcony if possible. Forth Floor preferred"
I have been trying to read through all of this...is construction supposed to be happening in Oct with he yacht club?
Also how loud are the fireworks from the parks at the resort? We will have two young kids and probably back at the hotel sleeping by the time the fireworks start.
Do you have a trip booked?
From what I am hearing, the room renovations at the Yacht Club will probably be completed before October.
There may be work going on in the lobby- to the Captain's Grille restaurant, maybe the Ale & Compass lounge- I haven't seen many details for that one.
I do my best to keep the first post on Page 1 updated with confirmed renovation news so that you don't have to go through the entire thread. Reading there and the most recent pages of the thread are the best ways to keep up to date on information.
As others indicated, the fireworks should not be too loud for Yacht Club guests.
First time at YC. Any suggestions for room request for a garden view room? Thanks.
What is important to you and your family? Daybed? Location (near or away from elevator, high or low floor)? View?
As others have indicated the wedding gazebo view is very nice and gives the possibility of peek-a-boo lake views
Take a look at the Yacht Club Room Views thread on the Resorts Community Board to see samples of views from garden view rooms.
Welp, an email from BWI about construction just pushed me to change my July reservation to a first-time stay at BC! Initially had shied away from BC because of the YC construction, but that doesn't seem like that'll be visible at all from BC. A little bummed because BWI looked really nice, but the BC looks gorgeous too. July 20-25. Can't wait!
to our side of the lake!
I haven't heard about the work at BWI.
I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list we keep on Page 1.
Thanks for the info! Yeah we would not order from a flyer under the room. This is actually for my rehersal dinner for my wedding. I'm having a pizza-by-the-pool "dinner" at the Yacht Club Quiet Pool (very casual- I know!), so we're just wondering if we can order room service pizza for it or if we'll have to get Dominos or some other off-property company deliver it to the lobby.
*update: I checked the room service menu on AllEars and they do have pizza! So I think that's what we'll do. Thanks for the suggestion!
to the thread and Congratulations!
When is your wedding trip?
Hi, I just switched our res from AKL to YC last night and am very excited! This has caused us to switch around some ADRs as well. Looking for some advice from people who know the layout better than I:
Last day we will be packing up to drive back to MI
we want to do one last breakfast in the morning before heading out and thought we'd do Cape May Cafe since it's right there and kids won't have any other meals with the original characters. Which strategy is best:
1) Pack up, check out, load up car and then park again to go to 10:00 ADR
2) Get up and walk to 8:35 ADR then walk back to pack up room and leave by check out time (11? I think?)
Thank you!!
When is your trip? September?
Great idea to schedule a convenient character breakfast at the resort prior to leaving.
I think my preference would be to pack up and have the car loaded before breakfast, so that you aren't pressed with a time deadline to be finished with breakfast. But either would work. Love the helpful tip from wifey about keeping a shirt available in case there are spills- although it could be a great excuse for a last minute souvenir of your stay!
