OKW room question

[dbs1228]

I need a bit of help. My mom just booked my niece a 7 night stay at OKW using her RCI points 1 bedroom. Quite bummed since I have been asking my mom if we can use her RCI to get DVC and she never had an answer for me so I finally pinned her down and had her give me all her log on info and there it was about 25 rooms during the summer months at OKW and SSR! And to think I just added on! She was just complaining since she has sooooo many points and does not want to lose them. Now she will never lose them since she has 6 grandchildren, all hitting over 18!

I need to know from the experts where a good location would be to request at OKW since they will not have a car. It is 4 - 20 year olds (all good kids) and I would like for them to request near a pool (any pool) and more important near good bus transportation. Thank you in advance!

My favorite location is Turtle Pond - buildings 41-44. It has its own concession area and large pool for a quiet pool. I also like buildings 23-26. They are close to the Hospitality House (HH) which would be nice with no car. We never have a car, and you can easily get around since buses will take you to the HH if you don't want to walk. It's not a bad walk from Turtle Pond, though, as my daughter and I have walked it many times up and back since she was about 4.

Hope they have a wonderful time!

Thank you!!!! Do you know if both these locations have access to the bathroom without having to go into the master because that would be ideal to be able to go through the laundry room vs. master to get to the bath?

She will want to have a villa numbered 30 or higher. So no Millers Road, no Hospitality House area. Turtle Pond or South Point will work.

There are several bus stops all over the place, so being close to a bus stop is easy. Both Turtle Pond and South Point have their own neighborhood pool.

Awsome, not sure who is more excited her or me! She has gone the last 2 years and stayed at POP century so this will be quite a treat!

I always request first floor near the hospitality house. OKW doesn't have elevators and I don't want to drag the luggage up stairs. The one bedrooms only have the bathroom in the master.
