Because you are doing one day at the Magic Kingdom and are traveling with 3 children, one being an infant, I would do BLT for simplicity reason since you're so close to MK.

the blt studio are tiny - now they are bigger than a value resort and I think most of the moderates - (just not CBR)

that say alot of the room went to the kitchennett and bathroom (which is large for a studio)

so a family of 5 - here well you could do it but room wise very tie.

at AKV studio you can do either standard (which is pool view) or savannah view - now I have never done savannah view because with all the view places (big windows all over the place) - you can see the animals w/o using extra points (money)

now the value is like the BLT studio - they are smaller and can't see a family of 5 being happy here either.

but the standard or savannah room should work okay

a studio has queen bed, sleeper (full) sofa - you need to make you return the bed to the sofa every morning. otherwise the room will feel very, very small.

the 1-bedroom has king bed in the master - queen sleeper sofa and chair bed in the livingroom - both AKV and BLT have plenty of room in their 1-bedrooms.

Thanks. I am so torn as I like the location of blt but the theming of akv.

Sounds like a studio will be too tight right??

think at AKV you will be fine in a studio

now for blt would go with a 1-bedroom if you can afford it - if you can't the studio will work - just be sure everyone in your party knows that you are all crowded and it is only for 2 days.

It is three kids and my dh so studio would be cramped I think.
Looked into suites at aoa but can rent points for cheaper.
blt/cr is my dream resort but wondering if there is enough to keep kids busy on resort day??

I am going to say AKV - 1 bedroom, so much to do at the resort and you plan on spending a day there, also the studios to me would just be to small for a party of 5, either way you will have fun! Both AKV & BWV have a great pools

Is there even availability on points at BLT; March is only 6 months out.

Although AKV is my favorite DVC resort I would go BLT 1 bedroom for the location.

If you have a car, consider a studio at OKW. Lots o' room and two queen beds, not one bed and a sofa bed. And less points too! You could likely rent a car with the money you'll save on points.
