No bus to Hollywood Studios, unless they run one if they decide the weather is too bad for the boats.
Ah that may have been why we had a bus. Weather was crummy for the boats most of our last stay.

I think daybeds my not be a guarentee unless you have 5 because some rooms showed sleep 4 and some showed sleep 5 when we searched. Not sure if that was a glitch or what it swaps to when they have too many with 5.
We are returning this summer for our third trip to YC/BC. Like last summer, we could only get a part of our week there, so we are splitting our stay with the Poly. Happy to be there for at least part of our stay. Thankful those summer deals finally came out.
Could you add us to the list for June 11-15? Thanks so much!!
I need some advice. I was booked in a Studio at the Beach Club Villas. Today, a special summer promo came out. I moved us to the Beach Club, Deluxe Club Level Room. I am second guessing this change. We always stay CL when we stay here, but this time we wanted to try the Villas. Initially, we booked to save some money and my hubby wanted a balcony. He does not want the Juliet balcony. I initially called to make the change because I goofed up and had 2 guests and not 4 and it looked like it was the same price as the Studio. It was $697 more to move over to the hotel, Club Level. I know these rooms are not on the 5th floor. Can anyone tell me more about the Deluxe CL rooms? Do they all have a patio or full balcony? Is it worth the making the change? We usually only get to do breakfast at the concierge and maybe snacks here and there. It is really not worth the extra $700 or is it? We love the convenience of the concierge. I am so confused. I have a 20 year old and a 17 year old and having the extra day bed will be nice any you are not guaranteed the day bed with a garden view room. The studios have that extra bull down bunk. HELP! Any advice. Should I keep the Deluxe CL room or go back to the Villas? The balcony question is key.
Has anyone tried the spireside candles? Just saw their website and they have disney smelling candles and more specifically a beach club candle!
Another candle company walter and rosie candles company has a beach club candle too.
Has anyone tried either of these candles?
We have been going to the Y&B every summer for the past 8 years and every trip we order from GG. We order beer and wine and we also order a cooler from them. We have never had an issue bringing the cooler into the pool area.
OHHHH, add us to the 2017 club. We are owners at VWL (It will always be that for me lol) but since they are doing so much construction we are staying May 1- May 8 in a 1 bdrm at BCV for our 29th wedding anniversary. It's our first stay here. I'm really looking forward to it. We are bringing our "baby" 21 y/o at 6'2". He cannot wait to drink around the world. Can't wait for that .
Thanks for the warm welcome and information. I decided to go back to the villa. Earlier in the day, the studio was not available for the Summer package. But after dinner, it appeared, so I called. I switched back to the studio and I not only got the Summer rate, but they kept my 4 Day Magic ticket on there and it was even less than the Summer promo. Overall, it was $1,000 less to move back to the studio vs the Club Level Deluxe room. The Garden view was only like $100 less than the Deluxe room. So overall, it all worked out! Thanks again for your responses!page 838 revised
Which resort are you staying at this time?
I gave you some information about the BC Deluxe Rooms in a previous response, but I forgot to give you a warm
Based on the info in your post, since a full balcony is not guaranteed in the BC Deluxe Rooms, you are probably better off in a villa.
Thanks for the quick responses! I'm surprised at the no bus to HS, but I guess we'll make do! I've already had the TA put in a request for a daybed.
I'm sure I'll have others as we go, but thanks for the info so far!!!
Are the rooms without a daybed smaller than the rooms with a daybed? Or are they the same size?Groups with 5 guests (all over age 3) have priority for rooms with a daybed. That is, if there is only one available room with a daybed, a family of 5 should get that instead of a family of 4 who has listed a daybed as a request. There are infrequent occasions when there are more parties of 5 booked than there are rooms with daybeds available. In that case, the group would have to be given a room which has sleeping arrangements for everyone. That may require a room with a rollaway cot- which from past reports is a fairly comfortable option for sleeping, but makes the room crowded.

Thanks for inserting my pics Dee, you are the hostest with the mostest I should've looked to see if it was a pullout couch/daybed (smacks head). It really is such a nice room!!I put together the description and the room pictures from pas130 into a post on the Yacht Club Room View Page. Thought I would share it here. I'll have to go back and look but I don't remember seeing the coffee table before in the king bed room photos posted by another recent guest.

No need for a bus to HS - you can walk faster!
We are always there in the summer. We usually take the boats there and walk back.Yeah, but in that mid-August heat an air-conditioned bus sounds much better!!!
When my daughter stayed in a regular (non CL) room at BC last October during the hurricane, she was able to borrow a dvd player and movies at no charge.Library of Disney Movies at Concierge Desk- Still true??? or no???
VCR and/or DVD Players in suites (upon request at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa) ^^^
