can someone tell me where the boat dock is at OKW to get to DDT. I can't see it on the map I am looking at :rolleyes1:rolleyes1 and I know it's gotta be there I am just missing it somehow!

On this map, you see the H that designates the Hospitality Area and the "smoking area" emblem, the dock is located in that area.
 
The DD Boat dock is as Chuck described. It is located just below the flag pole at the end of the portico between HH and Olivia's along the Turtle Krawl boardwalk.

In this photo, the dock for the boat to DD is on the left at the waterline. HH is the building on the left, Olivia's is in the center of the image, Community Hall is on the right. Just off the photo to the right is the main pool and the OKW lighthouse.

Enjoy! :)

Is this photo the view from a villa? If so that view is amazing!
 
That was taken from the roadway in front of Buildings 23-26 near the Peninsular Road Bus Stop. Those buildings are included in the "Near Hospitality House" booking category. The view is from the front side (parking lot side) of those buildings and not from the balcony. The balcony views from those villas are golf course and pond views. Some of the balconies in Building 23 (villas # 2310, 2311, 2320, 2321) will have a little bit of that view plus a nice view of one of the island greens on the golf course.

Here is another photo of the balcony side of Building 46 - which has a wonderful water view of the Trumbo Canal which the boats use to travel to DD. Bldg 46 is about 400 yards past the area where the prior photo was taken.

Does the boat have a regular frequency between OKW and DTD? How long does the boat take? Also how long is the walk to DTD and is the path light and safe to do a night?

I just booked 2 nights at OKW in July prior to VB. We don't plan to do a park, with the possible exception of TL.
 
THe boat runs every 20 to 30 minutes, starting at about 11am. It depends upon the nuber of boats running.

The trip takes about 20 minutes.

The path is about a mile long, is not lit and not recommended for night time.
