I'm glad the globe is back. We'll be at YC for the first time and I know DH and DS will go nuts for the globe.
I'm sorry for asking but when I searched I couldn't find the answer I was looking for. Does anyone know if at the BC there are rooms with 2 queen beds, a daybed, a full balcony, and a view of the lake that's not on the ground floor? Just trying to decide between BC and YC.
Thanks!
Okay, decision time and I need your collective help. We've decided on May 4-8 for our add-on trip. 2018 pricing released today and BC & Poly are $300 apart.
A little background: We'll be at BC for 8 days this December, and trying Poly for the first time for 8 days in November, 2018. This trip would be a little extra I decided to throw into the middle. We have two little ones, DS 5 and DD 3.
I know this group is biased, but I trust your opinions. Which resort would you pick for May? We really are torn. BC has the pool, and the short walk to EP and DHS, while Poly has the resort loop into MK for the little ones.

The Globe is back, I repeat the Globe is back!! Also they are working on the first floor near the quite pool for the YC room refurbishments !
With May you will also get the Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot which makes the whole park even more special IMO. If you haven't done that before then staying in that area will be even better. I haven't stayed at the Poly but to be honest it is at the bottom of my wish list and I doubt we will ever stay there (I know this is heresy to many in this community!) When we have been there (in May and Sept) to experience the resort and eat we have found it really chaotic, too busy and just not relaxing, this compared to the super chilled atmosphere in the BC lobby. So yes I am 100% biased but YC&BC all the way for me! Also I really don't find the bus journeys or monorail to MK that bad, we've never had an issue getting there quickly and in time for rope drop. My tip is to use the YC bus stop (even if you're staying at BC/BCV) as the buses seem to go there first (open to correction from others if this has changed) and you will generally get a seat/time to get settled. Also, on return we just get on whichever comes first/has the shorter line Boardwalk or YC&BC and then walk - but we're big walkers and don't have kids!
Great! Really happy about that! Thank you!
YAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SO glad the CM was wrong!!! Hopefully he was wrong about the lobby refurb, too!!!!The Beloved Globe!
Looking forward to our stay at BC CL Deluxe room, July 21-24. Just me & DD laying around the pool, relaxing, after a busy start to summer.
Just back from YC and I have to say, if anyone is checking in in the near future, ask about the construction before you get your room assignment. We were on the 3rd floor in a refurbished room, kinda overlooking the quiet pool except there was a HUGE tree blocking our view from anything. Our room was soooooo noisy due to construction that we checked out a day early and asked for a refund. We checked in on Monday and spend most of Tuesday at the parks but on Wednesday decided to rest a little, hang out at the pool and relax in our room before heading to the parks around 3pm. The noise was so loud I described it as the 7 Dwarfs were mining above, Gepetto's workshop was open and Wreck it Ralph had a sledgehammer. We awoke to this around 7:45am. We decided to check out the next day even though our reservation was through Friday, we were planning on moving to AKL on Friday, so just moved a day early. Also, in the section we were the elevator was closed, so in order to get to the quiet pool, we had to walk all the way back to the lobby and all the way back to the quiet pool or navigate the staircases, which we mostly did, but it was still a PITA. I believe our room was 3094, and the room itself was nice with the rehab, but the whole area should have been shut down during the construction.
Do you think the YC room renovations will be done by the end of September? Thinking of switching to them, but don't want to hear construction when resting in our room.
I was able to do my online check in today for the Yacht Club, checking in on August 19th. The online options are so overwhelming, I can hardly decide!

Hey, is anyone else having trouble with the site or is it just me? I usually stay logged in all the time, but this morning I keep getting booted out. Do I need to clear my cookies? (How do I clear my cookies?). I did shut down everything on my computer and then logged back in, but still having the same issue.
We are arriving first week in September and I know they are completing 2nd floor rooms. I requested second floor and I am wondering with the new renovations will the rooms still have the pretty nautical headboards? I like this more than the modern look.
On July 27, 2017 we will open our schedule for sale through April 6, 2018.
I saw the globe last week from the boardwalk, they had the doors propped open.Have a wonderful time! How exciting to be "home" we will be home in 101 days. Enjoy Teppan Edo! Is the globe definitely back in the YC lobby btw?
Thanks! I'm excited to stay at the Yacht club for the first timeYes, I think so.
Staying at the end of July! Does anyone have pictures of the newly added showers at the pool bathrooms? My friends will have to drive home and would like to shower before they leave. Last time we stayed we were told the only shower option was the outdoor one (the spa ones weren't available.) Thanks!
