Our deluxes have two queens and a daybed in them. The views are all very nice although some do not have full balconies.

Can anyone clarify? Another site (Deb's), says that the only Club Level rooms that sleep 5 at both resorts are garden view??

Thanks!! He was just hoping to catch a few of the higher up fireworks I think, while the kids are in bed.

We stayed in a 4th floor villa , facing Epcots big ball a few years ago, and to our surprise, we not only were able to see some of/ and hear Illuminations, but we were able to hear Off-Kilter, the band that plays near the Canada Pavillion! It was so nice to step outside and see part of/and hear part of Epcot. I do not mean to sound like it was noisy or anything, it was " off in the distance" but definately audible and enjoyable. Such a treat!!!!!

I was just in one this week and have been in all of them in the last month or two so unless they removed the daybeds, they definitely have two queens and a daybed in them and always have as long as I can remember and I've been there for almost six years. They are much larger too ... a regular room is about 380 square feet and the deluxe is about 573 square feet.

Perhaps someone who has stayed in one can ease your mind.

We stayed in a deluxe club room last summer - and loved it!

As far as I understood when I booked GV CL can sleep 5, LV CL sleeps 4 (no day bed) and deluxe CL rooms definitely sleep 5.

The rooms are about 150 sq. feet bigger than a regular room. Our room had lots of windows (one facing Crescent Lake) and a patio. Deluxe rooms 2557, 4557 and 3691 have extra large balconies. Deluxe room 3557 has a standing room only balcony. I know there is at least one more deluxe room (maybe more) but I don't know the room number or their configuration.

I do not the deluxe rooms definitely sleep 5.

That was our all time favorite room. We were lucky last year becaue it was the 7/4 deal and we already had our APs! This year we have to buy new APs so we decided to go with a regular room and add deluxe dining. But July 2011 we will definitely be heading back to a BC deluxe CL room! Maybe even in October 2010 if a good AP rate comes out!

Just tried upgrading to a WV at BC, but they don't have Rollin shower rooms that WV any suggestions as to a request that will at least give me something beside a dumpster to look at?

Try asking for a courtyard view - either at the back entrance of BC or over by the volleyball area. Both are great standard views!

The washers and dryers in the BCV one BR and two BR Villas are top loaders.
The are the stackable washers and dryers.

As far as I understood when I booked GV CL can sleep 5, LV CL sleeps 4 (no day bed) and deluxe CL rooms definitely sleep 6.

AFAIK the deluxe CL rooms are only for 5. the ones at WL & BWI sleep 6

 

[jjohnson]

50/50 as far as which resort ... make sure you book a waterview though! If you want a guaranteed full balcony, go with the YC (or as I call it, the dark side).

so true!

Don't know about the daybed ... only way to tell is to go into the rooms or pull up the rack at the front desk. They definitely have full balconies and fantastic views!!! They are three of my favorite rooms.

Thank you! Is it too risky to request the rooms by number? If they are full would the room assignor guess/figure out I wanted lagoon view/full balcony? We have booked a water view rm. Want to know how to word request...so happy just to be vacationing at the BC--first time!!!

I can request anything you want. I'd call reservations and ask the CM how best to word the request. You could put "lagoon view/full balcony" as your first request and "request room 2641 or ........." as your second request. Most people request a full balcony so that's the hardest thing to get if the resort is full.

THANK YOU! I was able to book a deluxe water view for 5 people. The "other site" says that is for 4, but it was for 5. The regular CL rooms for 5 do only have a garden view. I really appreciate the help. We got it all figured out!

Someone asked a question on my confirmed snack list that I do not have an answer to. If anyone is going to BC soon and using the DP could you check and see if the side items in the refrigerated section are included as a snack credit ie; cut up fruit, side salad, carrots/celery w/dip and let me know when you return? TIA Joyce

We were there in the beginning of the month and I'm pretty sure the fruit cup and carrots/celery were still snack items. We'll be back toward the end of next month and I'll confirm if no one else has answered you by then.
