Have stayed at both in two bedroom units ...
WBC:
- You have to go on Disney property to get to it so you feel like you are on property.
- Many units have views of Disney icons and hotels and fireworks.
- Units are in towers, some with lovely views from open air balconies.
- Units are accessed by indoor hallways with outside doors also having security locks.
- Units are bright and airy, roomy and well appointed.
- Kitchens are open to and part of the living area which is nice.
- Grills outside easy to get to.
- Access to many pools, easy to get to walking around lake path, though maybe not close.
- Typical timeshare resort type activities.
- Couple quick dining and bar options, around the lake.
- Parking garages as option but you won't necessarily be right by your unit.
- Have stayed here with 2, 3, 4 and 5 of us.
SVR:
- East of I-4 (some units on I-4) minutes to parks, DS and LOTS of dining options.
- Units are in buildings only a few floors, none with really any views other than the property.
- Units have screened in porches, some look at ponds and lush landscape.
- Complex feels more like a living community than resort community.
- Units open direct to outside, even the porches have doors going out.
- Unit was very roomy with spacious bedrooms.
- So far I've only had beautifully decorated units.
- Units are darker, due to layouts and the trees/landscaping.
- Access to many pools, slides, hot tubs but beyond your own community one, car is needed.
- Typical timeshare resort type activities but may need car.
- Couple fun dining and bar options, but we stuck with walkable areas.
- Parking is right outside unit, although at times there were no spots for us close by.
- Have stayed here with 3 of us.
Prices vary all over the place due to booking options but for this fall, WBC was TWICE the amount for SVR. I was getting ready to book SVR but decided to go with Embassy Suites with points since just two of us.
