I had to take a stab at a poll....

Okay, now that we have seen it.... what are your thoughts now....

I own at BWV...I already love OKW, but no matter how cool the slide looks it won't change my desire to go there again (which I'm sure we will!)

 

[jaysue]

I would stay at OKW more often with this feature enhancement but DW is really into the central location and SAB at BCV so you know who the real boss is....



thanks

We prefer OKW for our onsite stays anyway, but without kids, the slide doesn't necessarily do anything for us. With a clothes-free whirlpool in the room, we don't need no stinkin' hot tub.

I look at it this way. As being two adults with no kids I feel the pool is a great addition to OKW. Being that kids just love those slides that will leave the other pools more quiet for us adults. Therefore we as adults will benefit in a small way as well. And what the heck, I will certianly give the new slide a try.

We love OKW and try to stay there once a year, the slide won't change that, but it looks very nice.

All of our points are at OKW and I look forward to having the slide available whenever we invite family and friends to vacation with us. I'm not concerned if dues go up to pay for lifeguards or increased maintenance.

Rumors are that the slide will be added to the existing pool. I just wish it would be built along with a completely new pool near the existing feature pool. Pools always seem to be overcrowded to me.

I would have been happier if they had done it a few years ago. My two-legged Disney Fanatics will be flying the coop in the next few years, and DH and I prefer not to make that big a splash when we are at the pool!

It looks like it will be very nice, and it can only increase the value of my points .

I didn't realize there was such great sand beaches in Key West to build such a wonderful castle!?!? If I had known, I would have gone down there years ago!! LOL!

Gotta tell ya, the drawings don't do much for me. It could have been worse, but I still am not thrilled with the slide. I'm thinking the real thing has GOT to look better.

Of course, the drawing could be the fault of the artist that did the rendering.

 

[MDonley]

From my experience, the main pool isn't over used anyway (OKW is so spread out and they have the local pools). This should help out more. I think it's great, although we'll probably have to pay for lifeguards in the future

 

[WDWMom]

I love the look. But I am worried about the poll. It seems more non OKW owners are now going to what to come to our resort to stay making it harder for me to make last minute ressies.

Also, more kids might be going there instead of the quiet pools making an already busy pool even busier.

Oh well, I am glad it is coming either way.

The slide looks cool and we may use the main pool more often now but it won't make us stay at OKW more frequently. We do like staying at OKW and have always requested being by the Turtle Pond Pool area and used that pool.

I am not an OKW owner. I don't really care one way or the other about the slide. It looks fine - not great, but fine. I will book at OKW if I really feel a need for the extra space, cannot get into BCV or BWV, or want to save on points usage. The addition of a slide would not affect my decision to stay there in any way.

I own at OKW and BVW, wanted a slide at OKW and I luv the slide! At first I was a little confused about the theme. I thought "castle?" at the first picture and then it hit me: "SAND castle". Duh. I think the sand castle theme really fits in with the existing pool area. I'm a happy camper and may add on some nights at OKW for my late December trip .

I've heard about the slide, but that's it. Is it done yet? Are there pics up anywhere of it? I'm a BCV owner, but staying at OKW when we go in May, so I guess I'l find out then, but would love to see a pic of it now.

Thanks!
