Which club level with kids

[RoseMom]

We are looking at staying one night club level at either BC, YC, BWI, CR, or Poly before we start our DVC stay in July at RIV. Which one do you recommend with 2 kids ages 12 and 4 (we will not be doing any parks)?

CR or Poly would be nice to watch fireworks every night from the lounge or your room depending what you book. When we stayed at Beach Club and Grand Floridian they had better food options for our toddler than our recent CR stay although she wasn’t with us there.

I would do Poly - the lounge is beautiful and you will have a nice view of the fireworks. Plus the pool and splash pad are a lot of fun if you plan to swim.

King Kamehameha Club at the Polynesian. Nice big lounge and lots of room (by comparison) in that area for the kids. Plus it's convenient to pools, beach area and so on.

Poly is the best all around package for a one night CL stay, IMHO. Great pool for littles (and adults), best beverages, best views of the park and fireworks, best lounge/room to resort amenity profile. Not even really a debate in my mind, the other resorts/CLs all have good parts too but the overall setup at Poly wins out, in my opinion.

My initial thought was BC because of the nicer of the pools but with the 4 year old it is a little more stressful at that pool tbh. I'd go with the poly. We've done club with kids at all of those. The fireworks and pool are great. The food is fantastic and the dole whips is easily accessible . Also the monorail is right there to do some quick stops around to the other hotels and you can take a boat ride if you'd like as well.

BC would be the choice if you went with crescent lake but their club lounge is significantly smaller then poly and again while the pool is nicer overall, there is not as much free roaming for a 4 year old and even the little slide is off to the side not really with the rest of the pool. The big slide is totally separated from the pool and therefore really need one adult at the entrance and one at the exit. Just a lot more stress on a stress free needed day
