Grand Villas at OKW

[ganban]

The GV at OKW look beautiful, and the point cost is much lower than others. But DH has a mobility scooter he brings to use in the parks, and I'm wondering if the villas are accessible from street level.

When you book tell the CM that you need ground floor access for a scooter. You will probably be asked if you need other accommodations,such as roll in shower, grab bars etc. This should assure you that you will be able to get you scooter into the villa. Have a great trip.

OKW has one GV with ground floor access (building 48) and two GVs with elevator access (building 63). Two of those are HCA.

The other 24 GVs are up one flight of stairs to enter the villa's main floor.

There are Studios/1BRs/2BRs at ground level in every building but only one GV with ground level access.

If all you need is a place to recharge your scooter, outlets are available outside Papa's Den (Front Desk area) for this purpose. If the scooter is needed inside the GV then you would need one of the three mentioned above and may need to go thru Special Services to reserve (MS will direct you when you call).

I'd suggest using the recharge outlets near Papa's Den instead of worrying about getting the scooter into the GV itself.

Good luck!

Plus the first floor of the GV only has the master bedroom (king sized bed) and the queen sleeper sofa and twin sleeper chair in the living room. Both of the other bedrooms are only accessible by the stairs.
