Thanks for the photos.

I'm now considering ordering room service that morning, the breakfast menu looks very good. Does anyone know what time room service begins? All Ears has 7am, but I'm thinking that's incorrect. I'm pretty sure it's 5:30 am but I can't remember.

Hey LittleLULU we're checking in on the same day!!

Can't help you with the opening time at RF!
Now, as for your other option, I'm all for that!
Room service is the only way to go! We love it and usually get it several times during vacation!

We will be there about the same time too!! This will be our first stay at WL. We have visited WL but never stayed here. We are all so excited! This thread has been awesome!

ALRIGHT!!!!! Let's all get excited together!!!!
JordanBailey ....you're going to love the WL!
And we're all going to be there at the same time! ALRIGHT!!! AND SOON!!!

Trying to figure out my room requests for our July stay at WL. We have a stand club level room booked for 7/4-7/10...I feel like I read somewhere the different types of views/areas of the hotel to request... Does this sound familiar? DS(8) says he doesn't really want bunk beds, he would like his own queen bed and a view of the fireworks. I would really like a view of the water. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good room section request? Where would you request if you wanted to be close to the club level lounge? Thanks for your help!

If you think of the WL as a U it helps. Standing facing the entrance of the WL the club is on the 7th floor to the right. It's almost in the middle of the building, but slightly to the right. If you want a closer room, book somehing on the right hand side of the WL.

We had a bunkbed room with a view of the castle. It was all the way down on the left, the last room before the suites. DD loved the bb and we all loved watching the fireworks from the balcony at night.

Enjoy!

Unless someone else can post, I'm going to post a full report when I return here and on the CL thread.

We've stayed WL CL numerously and are looking forward to our return, so far I have not been too impressed with their IPO though.
Good thing I booked all my ADRs before I made my reservations for CL.

Should be interesting to see what and who has changed since we were there.

Just be positive and I'm sure we will ALL have a wonderful vacation experience!

Great...please let me know your thoughts when you return back. I am a little disapointed in their IPO so far.

About how long is the boat ride to MK?

I'm trying to schedule our last day and I'm wondering if a 2pm ADR in MK is too late to get back to the WL by 4pm. We'll have to catch the DME bus around 4:30 pm.

What time should we try to be at the boat dock by? I don't want to cut too close but I don't want to wait around the resort for an hour either. My kids get antsy waiting around.

Thanks!

The bus is usually faster to/from WL to MK than the boat.

I'd say about 5-7 minutes? I could be wrong, but that's what it felt like.

I can't remember the interior doors at the WL, think they are wood. But there was a thread about this same subject a couple of weeks ago.
And alot of people were totally against deluxes having decorated doors.
Me? All the years I've stayed in deluxes, I've never seen a decorated door.
Only opinion I have is that I wouldn't want anything left on my door from a previous occupant or damage to the door.

Wow! You're almost there! 3 days!and you're staying 2 weeks at WL!!!!!!
Have a wonderful vacation!
