I just altered my Epcot FP+ on an EMH [AM] so we can run this on 10/18! I know the article mentions September, but hopefully they will continue through October and more!

back!
Standard view rooms will either look over a flat rooftop or a parking lot. I think that your best bet to avoid a rooftop view would be to ask to be facing the front entrance parking lot. The only problem with that may be noise if you are very close to the front entrance. Some past guests have reported that some of those rooms may hear noise from the Magical Express or other buses that come through.
"Room with daybed preferred, facing front entrance parking lot, if possible."
Let us know if you book at the resort to ring in the New Year.
I feel like I could have taken those photos today, they’re consistent with what I’m seeing. Another area that’s being refurbished is the courtyard between the solarium and DVC Villas. Signs state that the area is being re-landscaped. Lots of ladders and paint going by all of the time. No real interruption to guest areas has been caused by it from the looks of things.
They do something like this at the POR/POFQ resorts. I think it is a great idea and lots of fun for runners.
I realized we won’t be able to do it after all. We will be staying at pop that day and check into bc the day after the run.They do something like this at the POR/POFQ resorts. I think it is a great idea and lots of fun for runners.
So thrilled about this, and so bummed that I don't check in until Friday! I'll have to do it in the winter.
Dh and I are staying there for the first time in October and I can’t wait to use the pool! It looks so fun. I love swimming in any pool so SAB looks so fun with the slide and sand on the bottom.Does Stormalong Bay really live up to the hype as an adult? I am staying there for the first time since I was 10 (I am now 34!) with my husband for our first anniversary. We want this trip to be slightly more relaxing than others so I have some open time planned for a few of our days so we can hang by the pool. Has anyone gone as adults only and enjoyed the pool?
Also - does anyone have experience with the blow outs at the spa? My anniversary is 9/23 so was thinking ti might be nice to get a blow out that day. We have dinner planned at California Grill, and I am actually trying DESPERATELY to find a brunch opening (with no luck yet!), so I thought it might be a nice day to avoid my humidity frizzed hair!
We've gone to SAB many times without kids and it is a nice place to spend some time. We like the lazy river and the fact that there are waiters who will bring your food and drinks to you. But you might be disappointed if you expect it to be really fantastic. There are other resort pools that are nice, too. Sometimes we prefer the quiet pool if we just want to relax and cool off.Does Stormalong Bay really live up to the hype as an adult?

I haven’t read anything about that. I hope that’s not a new thing.I just saw a post on FB about guest passes at SAB. Is this something new? I thought only guests staying at the resort could use the pool.
I did not read through the last couple of pages, so I’m sorry if this has already been discussed.

Neither have I. Unless someone was perhaps talking about adding a day guest to their room and then needing to have a guest pool pass issued for them?I haven’t read anything about that. I hope that’s not a new thing.

A few weeks ago a member of that group said they would be staying at YC/BC and they have family local to the Orlando area. They wanted to know if their family could also join them at SAB.
Today that poster updated saying that she was told that guest passes for SAB are given out daily and there was no way to reserve in advance, and no guarantees.
