We changed our May 2020 trip to July, so only going once (unfortunately)
thanks for the add, we are looking at going in 2020. You have me down for both 2019 and 2020. I wish! Lol
We are listed as Aug 5-9 at BCV, but I changed our reservation to Aug 1-5 at YC. Sorry to be late in updating! Thank you for keeping track of all things BC/YC!
Yes, both were garden view rooms
4070 had no other soft surfaces (daybed/chair), but there was a desk (with the smaller nesting table underneath, so it could be pulled out and extended a bit) with a desk chair, and a small leather chair with ottoman between the bed/balcony door. Only a shower, no tub, and no connecting door. It was a great room!
2080 was also shower only, with a daybed and a desk/chair combo.
Hello!
I just need to update my trip dates. Our planned October 2019 trip has been postponed due to a surprise pregnancy. I just got my DVC rental reservations squared away, so we will be at Beach Club Villas (with an extra family member) May 12-21, 2020. 6 nights in a 2 bedroom and 3 in a studio
Adding the extra infant to our party actually gave us a few extra days at my beloved Beach Club. We planned a split stay, to include 3 night in an AKL Savannah view studio, but our party is now too big to fit in an AKL studio .
It has been so long since we’ve been back to the Beach Club, our last stay there was in 2011! If you told me when I left that it would be 8+ years until I would be back I would’ve thought you were crazy. But we took a few detours to the MK resort area. We enjoyed the Poly and the Grand but I’m so excited to be coming back to my first love.
I’m excited to experience Flower and Garden festival, and hoping next May has less rain, oppressive heat, and love bugs than this past May did. But no matter what, I’ll be a happy camper.
Been busy the last couple of weeks - but I just went online to do some tentative pricing and was shocked to see so little availability at Yacht Club in August 2020... not sure what I am going to do - move to water view and pay more or try Beach Club. But the full balcony is REALLY important to us. Plus we were not 100% sure we were going at all. I figured I had a ton of time to decide. But now I feel that I have to book regardless - pay the deposit which I guess I can always get back.
Hi
@natebenma can you please change our arrival date from 11/1-11/5 to 10/31-11/5. Thank you
Also for anyone that can answer, we're booked @ Yacht Club Club Level Water View - can we put in a request for a Crescent Lake view and what room numbers would those be? Or are those views under a different room category? Thank you!
We visited Beach Club for 1st time 6/5-6/13. We loved it. BC has now jumped GF as favorite resort for me. Location could not have been better. We really enjoyed being able to take a short walk in the evening into Epcot for dinner, as well as, the variety of dining options for my family.
Oh, BW Ample Hills Butter Cake is heavenly!!!
Just wanted to share a picture I took of a storm approaching BW while waiting for boat @ lighthouse...View attachment 411530
So happy to hear this! Hope this means Lafferty’s will still be open till then as well.Just saw in Disney Food Blog that Beaches and Cream is now scheduled for refurbishment later than originally planned. It’s now open until 26th August
Loved that stormy picture!!! I’ve decided to pack my nice camera and would love to snag sunrise/sunset pics...We have water view YC booked...I asked for higher floor- but some water views look like they would hide the sunset? And I’m guessing the lighthouse is just a fixture- you can’t go in it? Also, was soo excited to see Beaches is open while we are there- raced to book it- had a table at 1:00 on our arrival day- but our first fast pass was in that time frame- so looked at other days..now nothing showing up. We have been to WDW 12x (many one day stops) and always tried to eat there- never get a table. I’ll keep checking, but to think- I almost had it!
Sometimes, you can find a last minute (day before) cancellation for B&C. So, don't give up. If you don't mind sitting on a stool at the counter, you might be able be seated, without a reservation.Also, was soo excited to see Beaches is open while we are there- raced to book it- had a table at 1:00 on our arrival day- but our first fast pass was in that time frame- so looked at other days..now nothing showing up.

Unfortunately no. Standard dorm size.17 days!!!!
Are the refrigerators in the BCV Studio bigger than in the BC resort room? Making my grocery list and not sure if I can buy more than normal for this trip. TIA

Glad you liked your room. How was the rest of the CL -- lounge, etc.? We check in for CL SV in 5 weeks and 1 day (who's counting? Me!). It will be my second time with YC CL, but my sister's first and I'm hopeful that everything is as it was when I was there in February. Thanks.Had my first YC CL stay a couple weeks ago (WV CL, room 5161) and had a beautiful straight on view of the lake/boardwalk. Our room was next to the Presidential suite.

Would you by chance have a picture with your view? Touring Plans has got a picture that makes no sense at all. It shows that room looking at other hotel rooms.....Had my first YC CL stay a couple weeks ago (WV CL, room 5161) and had a beautiful straight on view of the lake/boardwalk.

Awesome thank you!

NICE! Thank you! I've just changed my room request with Touring Plans to this room, or the room next door...(not the Presidential Suite.)
