Just back from our home away from home, BCV

[Jillpie]

Just back from our DVC stay at BCV and here are my thoughts, fresh on my mind (stayed third week of Oct). We also did a 3 day Disney Wish cruise. We've been DVC members at BC for 22 years. I can happily say we still absolutely love it. We raised our kids going every year to DW, now we stay and enjoy the resort every day at Stormalong B pool and just relax. The good! REALLY loved the added umbrellas!! My DH recently developed due to medication, a sun sensitivity. He spent alot of time reading underneath one and it was amazing. I spent all my time in the lazy river, and loooove the new blue rafts. The lifeguard did tell me, once they break which they are easily broken, they won't replace them as they're too expensive ($80 each). I wish they were all blue, so easy to hop on and off. Bring in more Disney, please, we love them. The bad. They haven't brought back the sign to make the hot tub, all adult . I asked every day to CM's walking by, and they said they'd talk to the manager, but I never heard back. Most said they have no idea. Disney, PLEASE bring back that small perk!! Kids were coming in and diving to the bottom, unsupervised, screaming and playing. We loved that hot tub for years, and really missed it.

We'd go to a different restaurant each night, but the last night I was looking forward to a simple pepperoni flatbread at the BC Marketplace. What in the world happened! They're now pre made, UGH. Just awful. They used to make it right in front of you and it was amazing. Bring that back please.

On our last day, a huge shout out to the Mgr of Food and Beveridge at Stormalong bay, her name is Viviana. A true angel. She came by asking how everything is. We were waiting to head to the airport and I was covered in sunscreen and the showers had just broken. I mentioned it to her and she went above and beyond. She phoned everyone she knew, to try to get us somewhere to shower. She finally landed a room at the YC, that was being cleaned. I was SO grateful. Thank you Viviana!!!!

Absolutely love our BCV stays. Can't wait for next year!

Sound like you had a great trip. Love seeing how members use their membership years down the line. Cruising and a resort stay sounds perfect.

Thanks so much for your review. I held my breath for the first couple sentences since we also own at BCV, and like you, it's my favorite resort. We bought right after my first stay there in 2002, the last year of the AP preview of the Osborne Lights. You've added to my excitement for staying there in January.
