Does the BC Marketplace really not serve hot breakfast items until 7am? :/
Am I correct in that all BCV rooms have a full balcony? I think I read that somewhere but now I can't remember!
First up: Came across this statement in the Villas post.
Currently (2016), there is a concierge Cast Member on duty at BCV from 8 am to 4 pm. When on duty, you may check-in either at the Beach Club front desk or here.
Still true, or AYKM? (Are you kidding me?)
Correct. For a few years The BC Marketplace's opening time was 7:00AM. Just within the last year or so, they began opening at 6:00AM for all other goods and services except hot items, which as you noted is 7:00AM.Does the BC Marketplace really not serve hot breakfast items until 7am? :/

2. On a totally related note....(read: Disneymoon)
There are Keurigs in rooms at YC, yes? Does anyone know if they ever stock them with decaf tea? Chamomile would be perfect.
3. The fridges at YC are unable to maintain ice, yes? We each recently got YETI water bottles and they will keep even Disney fountain water ice cold if there's some ice in the bottom. We plan on carrying them in the parks with us.
BCV is very small. Demand frequently outstrips supply. If Galaxy Edge is open by Nov 2019, I think it is highly unlikely that BCV will be available.Hoping to stay at BCV for a Nov. 2019 trip and renting points.
Has anyone ever used Disney provided rails with the daybed in the Beach Club?
I would like my toddler to sleep in the daybed, however she would definitely need a rail. I am not familiar with the bed rail Disney provides and if it will work/fit with the daybed.
A bit of a photo tour of YC
Disney's Yacht Club Resort Update: Hotel Refurbishment Project Almost Complete (PART 1)
Hoping to stay at BCV for a Nov. 2019 trip and renting points.
Hello, BC&YC friends...I'M BA-A-A-ACK....
Was just able to snag a BC Studio Villa for my trip this fall... YAY! I've been searching for quite awhile, and actually had made a Boardwalk resv cause it just wasn't happening! Then, lo and behold, there it was this morning!!!
I'll be traveling with a family I love dearly, but who really don't know ANYTHING about WDW, except that they wanted to go to celebrate their daughter's graduation from College. She's got some disabilities, so it has been a struggle for the whole family, and now... well, here we come! There are 5 of them, mom, dad, adult daughter, adult son and his wife. They will be staying in the Dolphin on their Marriott points, so I wanted to be able to be somewhere close to them.
They are such special people, but I realized early on that this trip will be very challenging for me, kind of acting as their very own tour guide. I'll be showing them all around the parks, and other areas, and spend as much or as little time with them as they want from me... So needless to say, I needed my place to come "home" to at the end of the day, to decompress, and my most favorite resort in the world will be just the place!
I've never stayed in a Villa, so am busy looking at TP for room views, and trying to figure out the best spot for me to sit on the balcony in the AM with my coffee and plan the day, and at night with a glass of wine, staring off into space!
So, Dee can you please add me to the BOG list:
Nov 24 - Dec 1 - BC Studios Villa
Will be SO great coming back to BC!!!

EDITED: Dee, I see I'm still on the list for YC for late Nov... so you can remove that one and add this one... YAY... can't wait!!
After a 2 year Disney break (can’t believe it’s been that long), I’m back! My yougest DD just informed us that she’d like to celebrate her 21st B-Day next summer at Disney so it looks like I have a lot to catch up here since we will definitely be staying at either YC or BC - our home away from home!
Wd'll be there tomorrow! At PORS right now (and it's been lovely) but so excited to be coming back to the Beach Club - can't wait for SAB and walking to Epcot. Also, will be our first ever club level stay
Sadly, we have to be removed from the Be Our Guest list for December.
Our two week, four resort, fabulous holiday vacation has been summarily cancelled by my self-centred FIL, who has decided he needs us to spend that two weeks with him at the cottage instead. He doesn’t care that we had plans, he’s fighting with his caregiver and refuses to have her travel with him as planned. So, he has commanded our presence, and refusing isn’t an option. Sigh. But the world revolves around him, and the rest of us must jump to accommodate his every whim.
My consolation trip is a stolen long weekend at the beginning of December, but there weren’t any discounts available at YC/BC, so we’re trying WL instead. I’m still annoyed, though, since I’d made the perfect set of ADRs for the original trip, and now I’ve got nothing. Stalking the website and have set up a couple of Touring Plans alerts, maybe something will come through. Fingers crossed for some pixie dust and good luck with getting at least a few of our fav ADRs.
Not having a great day.
I am so sorry. That is devastating. I hope you didn't cancel yet just in case he changes his attitude.
I am so sorry. I can totally relate. Last year i had a 12 day 3 way split between AKL, WL, and YC scheduled for the first part of December. At about 5 months out my boss said she had changed her mind, and could I please change my vacation dates so she could go to Hawaii to watch her Granddaughter play in a basketball tournament. Begrudgingly I did. It had to be changed to Thanksgiving and cost me a pretty penny. I too had to work at getting ADR's and most of them FINALLY came through! Good luckSadly, we have to be removed from the Be Our Guest list for December.

Yes there are lighted makeup mirrors in the BCV’s.We haven’t stayed at BCV recently, are there makeup mirrors in the villas? When the BWV were refurbished they added them, but the VWL still do not have them. Thanks!
