Hi Everyone!

Just back from our 7th stay at WDW and our 2nd at OKW. We really love the quiet feel of OKW, so laid back and relaxing from a day at the parks! While this trip was on rented points, we purchased a small contract before we left, so it was nice to feel we really belonged!

We stayed in a studio this trip, building 21 overlooking the golf course and not too far from a quiet pool. We arrived close to 5pm, and still had our choice of a couple of studios. Our room was ready and clean, and no problem with our trash and towel service. Kudos to housekeeping/maint., our toilet broke first night, and they where there within 15 minutes to fix and bring the extra blankets/pillows we requested.

I was somewhat disappointed with the service levels at Olivia's. Went for breakfast at 9:45 (they serve until 10:30) and was told they were no longer taking names..only 2 families waiting...and over 8 empty tables, inside alone (yes, I counted them). Hostess made up several different excuses, none made sense. I did ask for further explainantion, and was told to call the manager. I did call, left message and he/she never returned my call. Poor service. My feeling was not enough staff for breakfast.

Parks were great, not bad lines, F&W yahoo!, and wonderful weather, not to mention spending time with my girls and niece!

Another memory filled vacation at WDW (loved breakfast at Poly with Mickey, Pluto, & Stitch...Mickey and Pluto spent alot of time with the girls ...
oh, did I mention they are 15, 15 and 19! ha! ha!)

Cheers!
 
You mentioned F&W, are you referring to the Food and Wine Fest? I'm kind of curious what that is like. Are there places to go and try different foods and wines and if so where, what was on the menu, is it some place you would or would not take a 3 year old? Any details would be great.

Thanks,
Y-ASK
 
Hi Gail. Glad you had a nice trip. We are staying in an OKW studio in January with our boys and I had a couple questions. First, we want to be as close to the HH as possible. Can you discuss the various locations when you get there? Second, did fridge have a freezer (we like to freeze water bottles) and was there a toaster? Thanks very much. Jamie
