stayed here recently a few weekends back.
Pros:
- Lots of space and isolated, great not hearing your neighbors, kids in the hallway, people outside at the pool
- Being a 3 BR villa, you get a full kitchen, washer/dryer
- Awesome setup in the master bathroom
- Your own deck and grill
- TVs in every bedroom and in the living room
Cons:
- Far from everything, but if you have a car it makes it easier.
- To use disney transportation to get around the world, you have to take the internal bus to SSR first, then transfer to a bus headed to a park.
- Not really within walking distance of SSR except for the grandstand area. I would not recommend walking to the Carriage House, feature pool, etc. Had to drive over to community hall to borrow life vests for the kids to use.
- If there are any problems that require someone to physically come to your room it may take a LONG time since they don't really have staff dedicated to the THVs.
- If you have more than 1 car, you have to leave the second car parked at SSR somewhere, only 1 space per villa.
- Alot of bugs were out since the villas were nestled in the trees.
If you have a car then I would recommend staying here at least once. It was definitely something different and the kids loved it. If you don't have a vehicle, I think its more of a hassle considering the bus system and extra time you need to allow to get to around. I would rather stay at BCV, BWV, or BLT for the convenience of walking to a park.
