Speaking of stores at the BWI does anyone know if any store at the BW sells those little containers on a lanyard (like they sell at the water parks) to keep money/ID/room key in?

Last year when we did some shopping on the BW I didn't see anything like that, but they had them at the BC with the BC/YC logo on them (in several colors). I was hoping to get one of those with the BWI logo on it, but I don't know maybe they don't sell them. Anyone know?

I know that all the stores in WDW which sells pins and pin products sell the lanyard clip holders, however I never seen any with a resort logo. I have seen various character logos and last year they came out with one for the 10th anniversary of pin trading.

I know that when staying at the Contemporary on channel 20 of their TV's they play the music for Wishes, so it feels like your inside the Magic Kingdom. Now one of the things I have not seen yet in person is Illuminations, so just incase I am not inside Epcot when they happen I was wondering is there is soundtrack to them like Wishes and if there is does it get played on channel 20 of the Boardwalk TV's?

Not that I'm aware of. We've stayed in a MK view room at the CR and a boardwalk view room at BWI so I have to say that it's a little different. At the CR you really have a great, almost full view of Wishes. At BWI, however, you have a lot blocking your view from Illuminations and you have to keep in mind that much of the show is down low. You can really only see higher parts of it.

You can't see all of Illuminations from the Boardwalk but you can hear the music pretty well without a sound track.

Thanks, but I think we are talking about two different things. I am looking for the waterproof containers that you mostly use at waterparks, they are something like this ( http://www.amazon.com/Waterproof-Container-Airtight-Money-Beach/dp/B002EDCS06 ), but with the resort logo on it.

I know I've seen them at BC and at BB, but not sure if they have them at the BWI.

Untrue--all of the DELUXE club level rooms have a boardwalk view. Some of the "regular" club level rooms do not have a boardwalk view.

That was the main reason we picked the Deluxe Club Level room, so we can have the view of the Boardwalk.

Thank you for that information.

Oh my mistake, I thought you were talking the lanyards and pouches that are sold for Walt Disney World pin trading.

We had a deluxe club room too. You're going to LOVE it!!! Have fun

Thanks, I knew I read on here that someone said that Deluxe club level have Boardwalk view, and then I started to worried and ask CM and she told me no that I could have a garden view.
So I asked her if she would put on our reservations we would like to have Boardwalk view, she said she would put in on reservation, but that they will not guarantee it.

Hi,

does anyone know where I can find a map or list of BWI CL room numbers? Or an idea of which numbers - odd or even- face the Boardwalk?

Thanks!

It has been reported numerous times that the Deluxe rooms are BW view only. Personally, I will take the word of the DIS BWI experts a million times more than a CM from CRO

This is the description of the deluxe CL room direct from the WDW website:

Concierge service at the Innkeepers Club includes personalized Front Desk Services, turndown service and lounge with continental breakfast, midday snacks, evening wine and cheese and evening cordials and dessert. Deluxe Rooms have 2 queen-size beds and a queen-size sleeper sofa, table and chairs, ceiling fan, vanity area with 2 sinks, bath and private balcony. All rooms are non-smoking. Amenities include in-room wall safe, voice mail, high-speed Internet access (additional fee), hairdryer, iron, ironing board, refrigerator and Pack 'n Play® playard. A full-size crib is available upon request. Most Standard Concierge Deluxe Rooms include additional TV/Armoire. These rooms are located on the third or fourth floor of the Main Building and offer views of the BoardWalk.

Perhaps the CM was confused with the Garden Suites.

Nonetheless, don't worry, a BW view is what you will have!

kaffinito-odd numbers face the Boardwalk and yes, just to confirm all the deluxe rooms have a Boardwalk view. Some of the rooms are on the third floor, some are on the fourth floor. Enjoy! 32 more days.......

Not all odd CL rooms face the BW. This was the view from my odd# room behind the ESPN Club:

 

[lovesdumbo]

Anyone know how many Deluxe CL rooms there are?

 

[sfbank]

Sorry for my mistake lovesdumbo. We have always had a Boardwalk view during our family trips and have always had an odd number. That is why I went by that. One of my girls' trips we had a courtyard view and it was even. As far as the number of deluxe rooms I think there are 10 but I don't want to give out misinformation again so don't quote me.
