The Official Riviera Owners & Info Thread

[DL1WDW2]

Beyond excited! Added on direct today at RIV (also have BRV). I can’t wait for our stay next fall. Thanks so much for all the information in this thread. It was super helpful for our family while making our decision.

Congrats... I love the RR and wish I could justify selling my original 200 BRV points for a fixed week... but that would not be wise .

I thought it was the Monte Cristo, because I've had a croque monsieur there since covid!

I'm sure it's here somewhere but I can't find it ... what are the dimensions of the pull-down bed under the TV? IIRC it's bigger than the ones at the polynesian but not quite a single. Am I remembering that right?

I read somewhere the bunk single is 32” x 66” (Disney Mom site maybe), which is definitely smaller than a standard twin at 38”x75”.

Checking-in tomorrow for a few days (preferred studio). Let me know if anyone wants to know/see anything.

@jennypenny I am not taking my tape measure but will try my best to get an idea on the bunk size.

I am also touring the Grand Villa and may add-on some points before the price goes up in February.

 

[jennypenny]

thank you!

Since you offered.. What time are buses arriving and leaving for MK and AK in the morning? We will be there over President’s day weekend. We love to Rope Drop. I always feel like transportation is the biggest unknown. Thanks!

Can’t wait to hear your general thoughts about RIV and how things are in the parks right now!

We love RIV. Could not be happier to have it as our home resort. Here is our room view. I will try and find out answers to everyone’s questions later. Off to Epcot now.

I bought direct in September and wish I went with more points at that time because the incentives were so good. May add a small resale contract in the future.
