Poly Room Request

[noahdove]

We are using DVC points and I have been told that I am able to request a room. We have a Deluxe Studio resort view at this time. We really want to be able to view the fireworks at MK really well.
Any suggestions as to what room and or floor we should request? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Resort View won't get you a look at the fireworks. But you can use the beach at the Poly regardless of day since you're staying there to see them.

My preference is Tokelau third floor, centrally located. The beach is the best place to see the fireworks.

And don't give up! When I was there, my room faced away from the fireworks, but every evening, I'd just run out to the walkway, not even over to the designated beach, but I'd get a real nice view from in front of Moorea (where I stayed).

If you really want a fireworks view, don't book the resort/standard view.

For us the Volcano pool is the best place to see the Fireworks. No DVC request is guaranteed. Tokelau is our favorite location as it is close to all and you always get on ok view. There are rooms towards the end of the building that look at Hawaii that you can see the higher up fireworks. -Be aware the Bungalows will block the better view from the beach in front of the building if you are lucky enough to get an end room higher up stay there or walk to the Beach closer to the pool or be at the pool if you want a good view. The Poly by far offers the best view of the fireworks with BLT/CR a great second from the high floors or viewing areas for a different perspective but equally as nice in a different way. I would request a building and let the luck play out..... When you make 2 requests one may be granted and that could be a high floor looking at the parking lot with the monorail to make up for it. Otherwise change to the View you are asking for and request simply a high floor.

The primary issue is they booked Resort View. Regardless of the requests made, a Resort View booking is not going to get you a Fireworks View. The OP would need to change to a Lake View to even have a "fireworks view" request looked at. And yes, that would be a significant uptick in price/points.
