    • Disney’s Beach Club Villas – Deluxe Studio

      As I stated in my last post, I used my DVC points to reserve a night at Disney’s Beach Club Villas. This is one of my favorite resorts for several reasons.

      • I love the theming and decor. I am a beach person!
      • The pool is hands down my favorite (Stormalong Bay).
      • The location is perfect for walking into Epcot through the International Gateway, and boating or walking to Hollywood Studios.
      • If you like some downtime, this is right next to the Boardwalk area, that features a few restaurants and some entertainment.
      • I love the dining…Beaches & Cream Soda Shop, Yachtsman Steakhouse, and Ale & Compass Restaurant.

      We hadn’t received a text that our room was ready, so I went to the front desk to inquire at about 4:15 p.m. They did give me a room once I went to the front desk.

      Walking in the door, there’s a mirror with hooks.

      To the left was the vanity/sink area and the closet.

      The shower/toilet are separate.

      This particular location still has the individual sized toiletries.

      The closet has the safe, ironing board, extra bedding for the pullouts, and a luggage rack.

      On the right when walking into the room was the kitchenette. This area has a microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker with all of the fixings, paper towels, paper products, a toaster, and a small sink.

      The bedroom consists of a queen bed, a sofa pull out bed, and a twin sized murphy pull down bed.

      The murphy bed pulls down from the table under the television.

      We had a small balcony with a table and two chairs.

      Overall, I LOVED this resort and the room. I would definitely stay here again and it’s usually one of the first resorts I look for just because of the pool.

    • Disney’s Polynesian Villa Deluxe Studio Lake View

      Posted at 3:46 pm by taryngirl, on August 29, 2018

      After a quick lunch at Captain Cook’s we headed directly to our room.  We didn’t have to stop at the front desk in the lobby because they had both emailed and texted our room number to us.  We were using our Disney Vacation Club points, and reserved a Deluxe Studio–Lake View.  Here’s a quick video tour:

      The Deluxe Studios here at the Polynesian have two bathrooms.  One with a regular shower/tub, toilet and sink:

      The second bathroom has a really awesome shower and a sink:

      The kitchenette is a nice feature.  It includes a microwave, toaster, coffee pot, and mini-fridge.  Also provided are some paper products including a roll of paper towels, paper plates and paper bowls.

      The bedroom and living area include a Queen size bed, a pull out sofa, and a murphy style bed that pulls down under the television.

      We had an amazing view from our patio:

      Pros of staying at this resort:

      • Location!  You are two monorail stops away from Magic Kingdom.  You can walk to the Transportation and Ticket Center to get on the monorail for Epcot.  You can take  a boat to Magic Kingdom also if you prefer.
      • Atmosphere.  This resort really makes you feel like you are on an island somewhere.  If you love tropical, Hawaii type feel, then this is the resort for you.
      • Restaurants.  I love every single restaurant here.  Kona Cafe has great breakfast, lunch and dinner.  They also serve really good sushi (so I’ve been told…I don’t eat it!).  Ohana is my favorite restaurant anywhere on Disney property.  The food is SO GOOD!  It’s served family style.  They also have the Pineapple Lanai that served Dole Whip!
      • Cast Members.  The people that work at this resort are super friendly.  Every single one that we crossed paths with said “Aloha” to us!
      • Pool!  The pool here has undergone some renovations and now includes a splash area.  There’s also a water slide.  If you prefer something more relaxed there is a quiet pool as well.

      Cons of staying at this resort:

      • Price.  This is an expensive resort.  The average price per night on the smallest room type is $525.  That’s the average!

      If we get the opportunity, we will definitely stay at this resort again!
