First Stay at OKW--Need Room Location Help

[boxer]

Staying for our first time in May, and need help on the Room Location (for Room Request) help. Prefer to be nearby to the Hospitality House, as we plan to use the main pool frequently. I think the choices on the drop down were Millers, Penninsular, South Point, or Old Turtle. Any of these better selection(s) to be near the Hospitality House?

Penninsular road. That was really close for us in December. It's also the first bus stop in the loop so always enough room on the bus (although then you have to sit for the 20 or so minute loop around the resort) and first drop off when getting back.

Thank you....we are renting a car to avoid that bus LOL, so we are good there. Is this relatively close (walking distance) to main pool? Did you like the resort? We have stayed several other places, but never OKW. Kinda excited to see it.

It's a beautiful resort. It's maybe 5 minutes to the main pool. It's basically just across the street. It was our first time staying there in December. It's nice a laid back. The quick service was great and we were able to both eat at Olivia's and get take out from there. The activity center is large and you can rent bikes and those family bikes (or whatever those things are called). The only thing we wished they had going was the boat to Disney Springs.

We will definitely stay there again and spend more time at the resort itself. Good call on the car. My DH didn't go with us in December so we just used the buses. Having a car would have made it even better!

We took buses in Dec during our stay at OKW and we stayed in the Turtle Pond area (close to that pool). Never had any problem getting on the bus every time.

Peninsular Rd will be the closest villas to the main pool and not categorized as Near HH. If you book NHH, you would get 11-14 or 23-26. Try for 27, 28 or 29.

We were in building 62 close to Hospitality House. It was our first time there too.

How did you like the resort?

We loved the resort. I actually just booked another week there for later this year. The resort is much quieter than any other Disney resort we've stayed. It is a big resort, I do recommend have your own vehicle to get around.

We always request building 26 now, having stayed in it a few years ago. We walked over to HH within a few minutes to get to the main pool and the bus in the morning. On returning from the parks, we loved that we were then the first stop! Unfortunately we haven't been given a room in building 26 since Maybe this year lol!

Building 21 is located in a quiet section with a pool. I've stayed there a number of times and there were very few people at the pool. Located on Millers Pond Road and not far from the HH. The best of both worlds!
