What building(s) to request in Old Key West?

[Lucky'sMom]

Going in Nov. with DH, DS 7, DD 5, DD 2. I want to be near a bus stop, the main pool and sand area, and the hospitality house.
Any suggestions for what building # I should request? Any other tips on OKW would be appreciated...this is our first time staying there ( 1 bedrm).

Thanks!

Try the Disney Vacation Club Forum

Buildings such as #16/#17/#26 will work - close to bus stops and hospitality house/main pool/turtle krawl etc. One trick - the bus stop at HH tends to be last on the loop

Here is a summary of all the buildings and configuration


OKW Building Configuration Summary
I spent a couple of hours last week doing a survey of the buildings at OKW. There are seven different configurations. I have assigned a letter designation to each type described below (these are my own observations and are NOT official.) All room rooms are numbered from right to left as you look at the building from the parking area. Each floor will be numbered by building number, floor and room. The studio on the lower right first floor of building 16 is #1610. The 1BR next door is #1611.

GV's are found in Buildings 15,16,19,22,25,29,43,48,49,51,53 and 63.

You will notice 16/17/26 are not the closest - there are closer ones as well - we like the balance of not being too close.....



thanks

Thanks everyone...I guess I should just request to be near these things and not for a specific building. I appreciate your help!
