** Big Pine Key @ VGF has Cuisinart flat pod machines for some unknown reason
Deluxe Villas - SSR, OKW, AKL-K - regular coffee makers - 4 cup basket in studios, 8 cup basket in larger villas (some OKW grand villas may have Keurig Duos)
Deluxe Villas - AKL-J - conflicting reports, some rooms have old style basket coffee makers, some have Keurigs (sorry, I have no idea which are the majority)
Deluxe Villas - CCV - conflicting reports, some rooms have old style basket coffee makers, some have Keurigs (soft goods refurb scheduled for summer 2025, so likely all Keurigs after that)
Deluxe Villas - RIV - most rooms have old style basket coffee makers, Tower Studios have Keurigs
Deluxe Villas - BLT - so far, reports seem to indicate that all of the new rooms have Keurig Duos, including studios (non-refurbed rooms may still have an older basket style)

*** at any resort where at least some rooms have Keurig machines (either regular or Duo) you can always ask for a Keurig from housekeeping and if they have a spare they’ll bring you one
*** the same applies if you need a larger or smaller basket style coffee maker, or if you have a single Keurig and need a Duo

Deluxe - Keurig single-cup machines
** Big Pine Key @ GF still has Cuisinart flat pod machines

Are you still getting reports of flat pods at Grand Floridian Big Pine Key? The Grand Floridian rooms have had the Keurig k-cups for many years. DVC rooms have never had the flat pods. I think someone sent a picture of the flat pod machine, but could it have been an exception instead of the rule?

I haven’t seen any reports from sooner than 2 months ago, but at that point it was still the flat pod coffee makers like in the values and moderates. If you look at the room tour videos online, those machines appear in all of them. No idea why, but there it is.

Our last day at GFV Big Pine Key was March 29th, and they still had the flat pod machines.

I'd originally planned to request a Keurig, but I stuck with the flat pods and the machine provided in the room. They were just ok, a little weak for my liking, but it did the job.
