VB 2013 Information & Adoration Thread ---CLOSED---

They don't advertise it, but we've done this as far back as maybe 8 years ago. Just walked up to the hostess one day and asked if they would. She had to consult a supervisor and the supervisor said "of course" :) We really like to do this because we generally can't both finish a whole meal so we get an appetizer, two side salads, and an entree, then take our order to our room or to the gazebo by the pool to split it between us. No crowd noise, lower meal cost, no tipping for room service, etc. We let them know we're splitting the order and they give us paper plates, napkins, and plastic utensils for two. :)

Thank you!
 
We are going to VBR in October staying in a beach cottage. I noticed on the map that the BBQ grills are across A1A in the recreation area. Does anyone know if there are any grills closer? We would really like to use the grill for cooking and eat on our own deck. This does not seem realistic with the grills so far from the villas. We were there last October at the same time and noticed that there were a lot of Mosquitos in that part of the resort, so eating there is not an option for us.

Does anyone have any information about the kayaking adventure, specifically if it's every day or if it only takes place certain days of the week, this sounds like something my husband might be interested in.

Thanks!

I don't remember which days, but Disney's kayaking tour is only a couple days/week - I think maybe Tuesday and Thursday. I know or want offered Sunday or Monday when we were there last week. I think the days were listed on ebb & flows board - tho I asked the front desk about it.

It might be offered other days no through Disney, but Disney only does a couple days/week.

Arrived @ Vero Beach at 11ish. Impressed. Beach and pool great. Bleachers was very good for lunch. Now @ Shutters for dinner.

We will be arriving next Saturday at Vero Beach. Is anyone there that bought chairs/umbrellas from local store and doesn't want to bring them home? I would gladly split the price with you.
 
Not sure when you check out but we drive on Saturday the 6th (my husband and I) and we would be willing to split th cost with you
 
The kayaking is Tues and Thurs if you book through the resort. It is $40/DVC members and $45 non-DVC. We did it this past week and it was a lot of fun. If you book through the resort the van will drop you off and pick you up. You can book direct through Adventures Kayaking(paddleflorida.com) if Tues/Thurs doesn't work for you. This is the same place Disney uses and you can check out their website, they run the same tour most days based on the website. It's an easy paddle and you will have a great time!
 
Thank you so much!! Those days won't work for us but its good to know there are other options!
 
Hi everyone, this thread is really useful :thumbsup2

Does anyone have an email address for VB?
 
Hi All...

We will be arriving at Vero for our first Visit on July 13. I know im probably asking too late but are there things that I should be trying to book ahead of time?? The kids are Boy-16, Girl-15, Boy-12, Boy-11.

We really want to have a relaxing vaca after years of park storming 10 days every summer. but I also want the kids to not be bored.

I think we will drive up one day to go to Typhoon lagoon but otherwise we will be sticking close to the resort.

thanks in advance for any advice!!
 
Legomom - I don't think there is anything in advance, but definitely check the activities brochure when you get there. My boys 11&13 loved the archery, teen dodgeball, bocce ball, nature walk on the beach, the pool & slides, and checking out games on rainy days. All of that was sign up/walk up day of.
 
I was wondering if the resort has the refillable mugs. We leave in 4 days do I'm curious. Thanks.

Yes they do, and if your spending time at the pool this is one resort where we actually get our monies worth in one hot day!!!
