Using CC points for close hotel for 5 ppl

[Metsoskil]

Right now we have a OKW studio booked w/ DVC points for the first 3 nights of our vacation (Myself, DW, DD7, & DD4). We'd like to invite my BIL down, but that would exceed the occupancy of the studio.

We're thinking of using rewards points from our credit card to book an off-site room (we'll be driving and will have a car) for those days instead. If anyone has any opinions on the following places, or advice to give it would be very welcome. I'm leaning towards one of the first two, although I'd love to be walking distance to DTD.

Here are the choices within the point range I have to spend:

Buena Vista Suites - 2 queens & pull out sofa in separate area

Sheraton Safari - 2 Doubles & pull out sofa in separate area

Regal Sun - 2 Dbl Bed Tower Room (not sure how we'd sleep 5 there, but it says we can)

Buena Vista Palace - Water View Guestroom w/ 2 queen beds (again, not sure where person #5 sleeps)

Courtyard by Marriott - 2 Doubles w/ pull out sofa in separate area

Quality Suites Lake Buena Vista - 2 Queens w/ pull out sofa in separate area

I would go with the Buena Vista Palace.. but that is just me.. that is the closest as far as walking distance to DTD
Don't they have roll aways?

Of those I would stay at Buena Vista Suites, which also comes with a full breakfast.

One thing to look into would be a 2 bedroom at Wyndham Bonnet Creek. You can rent those for 3 nights for $80-$100 a night, including tax. Look in the "we loooove bonnet creek" thread.

either buena vista palace or regal sun - they are both DD resorts.
