Villas at Disney's Grand Californian - Room Views

[ClaraOswald]

Studio 3509- Anecdotally every time II’ve requested a quiet view (grad night stay, IYKYK) I’ve gotten x509 which works for me!

Is that all you say - "quiet view" ? I need to put in a room request for our December trip (studio) and would love this room.

Yes! The one time I said “non park view” I got the nicest Pixar pier view haha. I think they saw “park view” and went with that. I now just ask for “quiet view” and have always gotten it.

We requested "pool view" and got 4510 (which is NOT pool view. Ha!) It was fine though. Some park noise but I did okay with it.

Does anyone know what room numbers the goofy sky school views are, i think id like to go for that next time. Can you see WOC from any of the rooms?

You can't get further west than X500 rooms. 6500 is the highest west-est DVC room that faces the park. You can find room number maps made by "nonsuch" in the VGC thread.

This is view from patio. First floor 1504. South (DCA side), just over from the exit/entrance doors, bbq area. Nice woodsy vibe with peeks at attractions through the trees.

This is category: deluxe studio, HA Hearing. Near identical to regular rooms but with warning light system installed near bed & in bathroom.

We ended up in 2509 earlier this week as well. Quietest of the villas that we have had so far. Decent view of the fireworks. Not not decent view of the showerhead.

Is there another thread for VGC owners, or is this it? Anyway, I wanted to see if any of y’all had noticed in the new issue of Disney Files that Bill Diercksen promises to update the bathrooms in 2026, as a direct result of “a clear request for deeper changes” after this year’s refurb. IOW, they heard you loud and clear.

Thank you! I couldn’t find it because somehow the Ignore Thread button had been tapped - completely unintentionally - and I was going crazy looking for it!

I have accidently ignored people and threads before. There was one time I kept wondering why nobody answered my question.

Yes, I might need to add “Review Ignore List” to my reminders periodically!
