Wow only a 50% chance?!? I'm going to try to amend our YC reservation if the summer discounts go live this week. I was afraid that we might have to switch to BC but the balcony is a MUST for us so that stat you mentioned is good to know. The main reason we choose a deluxe is for the balconies. We also like to sit out there and have some down time while my son naps. I've read out there before, and at night we love having some wine out on the patio. We learned that if we relax on the bed while waiting for our son to sleep we get sleepy too which is not always ideal. We need adult time too!
If the balcony is too important to leave to chance, then you are better off at YC
I have had so much fun reading this thread. Thank you to all of you.
I cannot remember if this has been asked
(probably has
) but there has been so much other fun stuff to enjoy & learn.
So does anyone know.... (of course someone does,
ya'll know everything
)
How many Club Level rooms have full balconies?
How many CL rooms are there?
Can't wait for June to get here!
Have a great day!
Thanks for the kind words.
According to my notes, there are 73 BC CL (regular) rooms. Not sure how many have full balconies, but it is the majority of them. Maybe a dozen or so have the smaller, Juliet balconies.
All of the rooms in the BC CL Garden View category DO have full balconies, but not many of these rooms have daybeds, so this category is not able to be booked for parties with more than 4 members.
Hope that helps!
We took this route several times (usually from MK to BC) and it's about 45 mins. We definitely didn't do it as a time saver, more a sanity saver. We weren't often in a rush to get back to the resort and rather liked avoiding the bus via a stroll through EPCOT. It's an enjoyable adventure and we plan to partake again this summer.
So what's this chatter about Captain's Grille being a buffet for dinner? When did (or will) that go into affect? We liked grabbing a sit down dinner there but would not want to go if it becomes a buffet.
Saw a post about it on the restaurant board:

Has anyone heard about this?
and thanks for the this interesting link!
I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list.
This was the first I have heard of the possibility of a dinner buffet at Captain's Grille.
I don't like that idea at all. CG is a low-key, quiet, uncrowded place to dine, and I have been impressed with the menu.
It will be interesting to hear what happens.
Saying hello...we'll be back at our favorite Disney resort this July! We arrive on the 17th. Can't wait to show it all to my mom for the first time.
back!!!
I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list
What time should I plan on leaving the room (garden view) so I will be certain to get to MK for rope drop on June 2?
This will be my first time staying onsite, first trip as an adult and first trip ever for my kids (ds12, ds8, and dd6).
We want to spend our first full day in the MK!
Thanks!
to this thread and to the DIS!
I'll add you the Be Our Guest list that we keep on Page 1. BC?
The responses you received about the time to make rope drop were good. I am assuming this is not an early opening since it is a Monday, so I would agree that being at the stop at about 8 would work.
Staying at BC in early August in a GV room. Does anyone have any preference for location/room #'s. We would like an upper floor with a full balcony on lagoon side of building. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!!!
Just in case I haven't given you an official howdy,
I don't have you on the Be Our Guest list for August, so I will add you.
Your best bet would be to put in your request in words(by calling Disney's Central Reservation Office), listing your most important priorities first
For example-
"Full balcony, please. Upper floor, lagoon side (or courtyard view), if possible"
I saw in another thread that your trip is in a few weeks. I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list for April.
Here are some pictures a friend sent me of the resort. I asked and was told that Dee could use them for the information page if she wanted.

Wow!!! These are great! Please extend my sincere gratitude to your friend.
