Room capacity

[mbeaudet]

I am going to WDW in the fall this year. We are travelling with a family group that consists of 5 adults and 4 children. We would like to stay in a 2 bedroom villa at the Boardwalk Villas, Old Key West or The Wilderness Lodge. These rooms say that their capacity is for 8 adults. Are we allowed to have 9 people in one of these villas (since 4 of them are children)?

Thanks.

Watch out - this can get heated. Unless one of the kids is under 3, all count toward the room limit. You're correct that the 2-bedroom DVC units have an occupancy of 8. You could always add on a studio to accomodate the extra people. Might be nice for some to have their own space away from the group anyway.

Try doing it over the internet, sometimes it will let you put more in a room. If you call you may be able to convince the person to fit it in. This works well if one of the childern is under 3. We have had luck with this, but it is hit or miss. Good luck
