For all those who have stayed in a BCV dedicated 2 Bdrm...

[disneyfreak2127]

Wanting to know for those of you who have stayed in a dedicated 2 Bdrm at BCV what were your villa numbers and your thoughts on the location of the villa?! I know I can go to parkinfo2go and look at layout, what I am after is more detail. I know my fellow DIS friends will be a wealth of knowledge.

TIA!!

I think it was 553 and the balcony was huge. It overlooked some of the back stage area of EPCOT and you could clearly hear the entertainment from the English garden area. Some of the higher firework from EPCOT were visible but that was a number of years ago so don't know how much the trees and such have grown since then. Am hoping for the same room this year but know it probably won't happen. You could also hear some types of rehersals going on but I really don't know what or where they were just that they were off to the left a little and below us in EPCOT. Also had a good view of Spaceship Earth.

We just stayed in 441 last month. It overlooked the path and the woods. View was pleasant enough. The path was closed up front, as they were putting siding on the Beach Club (not the villas), by the quiet pool, so there wasn't much foot traffic on it. Saw a few bunnies down there. You could see the higher Epcot fireworks if you went out on a balcony and peered over to the left. We could hear the British Revolution play from the balcony. It wasn't too long a walk from the elevator.

It was fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way to request it or anything. I actually preferred the dedicated 2br we had a couple years ago on the first floor, BCV quiet pool side, waaaayyy at the very end, down by the parking lot. We loved being on the first floor, easy to come and go, easy access to the pool, but it was a long way from the front entrance, I will say. Unfortunately I can't remember the room number there...

Thanks so much for the replies! Keep them coming!

I think 553 is right. I was thinking 553 or 533. Also, same room on third floor has huge balcony. There aren't really any special views at BCV. They are mostly nice (no dumpster views). Some face the Port Cochere which is just ok, but we got a first floor room once with that view and it was nice because my kids could step off the balcony and play in the grass lawn there.

I think our dedicated 2 BR was 334 - overlooking the pool. It did not have the huge balcony though, just one off the living room and one off the master BR, I believe. It was awesome though. I sent some view photos of it to parkinfo2go, but I don't think he ever added them to his site.

New thought - did you request the 2 BR with 2 Queens in it? Because our room did not have the 2 Queens, but 1 Q and a sofa bed. At BCV, 2 BRs with 2 Qs are a booking category. So that will impact what your choices might be.

I have heard about those rooms, but I thought they were like Bigfoot, as I have never actually seen one in person,

And yes as Vicki noted, this is a booking category not a request and usually if you are lucky enough to book one, requests are usually not honored.

We've had that room and loved it also. Room 158? I should ask my kids. They'd remember. My kids loved walking right out to the pool, and I liked sitting out on the patio at night. And if you have a car it's so convenient. You could sneak out of that room to the hot tub and leave your kids sleeping in the room at night. You'd still be able to see them. It was so nice.

And if you have a first floor room facing the pool you can take your meals out there easily and eat them at the tables by the pool.

Had room 202(2br) in June which overlooked the canal and dunes with the quiet pool to the right. It was a great spot with easy access to the stairway that took you to the path for the bus or BC lobby entrance. You can't beat having the space. After 3 nights at HRH, it was a welcomed change.

We were in 302 - it was a dedicated 2 BR with 2 queens. I echo the sentiments above as we would have been one floor up in the same spot. Couldn't see any fireworks but it was a nice peaceful view to have.

Just back from room 424. Close to elevator and great view of EPCOT fireworks.

We had villa 533 last year. It was very close to the elevator, on the 5th floor, and had a giant balcony. It overlooked some woods, and you could see some of the higher buildings at EPCOT. You could not see the EPCOT fireworks from this balcony. The balcony wasn't very private, as it joined the balcony of another villa - they are both corner units.

We stayed in 101. It had bed/sofa combination in the second bedroom. For us, it was perfect. We were the first room next to the outside door. Closest to the lobby and the bus stop. We overlooked the BC entrance and it was very close to the Marketplace. We never thought there was any noise from the valet area at all, which surprised us.

Wow! I have stayed in 553 and 441 recently. I've tried to get 553 again to no avail. Like them both. Usually request woods view. Going back Wed. Can't wait to see what we get. We are bringing some guests. .

We stayed in room 224 the last week of July. Last room to the south of the building, facing the woods and epcot (sort of). It was right next to the stairs which made for an easy exit for us. Down the stairs and out the door near the smoking area between the Villas and Beach Club itself. It had the large 3 room balcony which we loved.

We had this same villa last May. We loved it because it was easy access to the bus (exit door and stairs right outside our villa), very large balcony and very quiet.
