Views from Beach Club?

[AshleeH]

I've been searching through many threads for pictures of the Beach Club - does anyone have pictures (or can direct me to a thread) of pictures of the views from the BC Villas? Any time I try a search, I get many pics of the rooms - which are lovely - but none from the balconies.

Keeping in mind that BCV doesn't have view as a bookable category, Touring Plans has some pictures: https://touringplans.com/hotel_maps/disneys-beach-club-villas

Some are better than others.

Parking lot, pool, road, garden, woods. None of the views are very good because the villas are behind the BC and were built on the old CM parking lot.

Thank you! That's good to know. We're still debating on what DVC points to add next .

I think BCV views are not the compelling reason to buy at BCV. More compelling would be:

Stormalong Bay pool
Close proximity to EPCOT, walkable to DHS.
Small resort so being an owner is important for busy times of the year especially F&W Festival thru the end of the year.

Thanks! Yeah, those are the three top reasons we are looking into adding it to our points. We've never stayed there, but we love what we've seen of the hotel and the location. We also love views, so I was hoping it had some - but it's admittedly a lower item on our list. Boardwalk seems to have pretty views, but I keep leaning toward BCV between the two.

First, BCV.

Woods View:

"Epcot" view:

Another woods view:

Courtyard:

Versus BWV:

Boardwalk view:

A BWV standard view:

A BWV pool/garden view:

Another BWV boardwalk view:

From inside the room:

That's most that I have. We've never gotten the parking lot or pool view at BCV and I've only overlooked the pool once at BWV but it was under refurb at the time so no pictures from any of those views.

@KAT4DISNEY Thank you! Those are wonderful pictures! It looks like we'll be shooting for Boardwalk if a view is a high priority on that trip . You'd think BCV would trim the trees on the "Epcot View" to actually get a view of Epcot, but I guess they have their reasons.

It was fun to look back and see them. BCV definitely has some shaggy trees!

I have some definite "points of view" on this (rim shot.)
Woods views are all great.
Pool view is noisy at time.
Walkway view (toward the parking lot end) are nice but longer walk... but good if you have a car.
Garden view is nasty - it is over the top of the smoking area and for some reason kids always need to shout when walking between buildings (walkway is next to the garden area.)

A reminder, BWV owners don't appreciate it when people post BWV photos. Please keep BWV on the down-low.

My opinion is that when View isn't a bookable category, Disney is signaling something very important about the value of the views available.

Guess I was lucky back in the day... we got an upper floor, Epcot view, at Christmas around 2000 and we had an awesome view of Illuminations.

I did not take a picture, but I really liked the canal view at BCV.

Those trees are across the road from BCV. They are not going to trim those ever. Unless they decide to cut them all down and build something there in the swamp like another solar farm.

BCV has never advertised an "Epcot" view. Just woods.
