Galactic greetings, Gayle and welcome to planDisney!
Gayle, as a
Disney Vacation Club Member, I can’t wait to try each and every Disney Vacation Club Resort and from your question, it sounds like you might feel the same! Disney’s Beach Club Villas and Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort are two excellent choices, but since you’re hoping to channel your inner Buzz Lightyear and blast off to a new galaxy
(one with the option of larger villas), let’s talk about your choices.
First, Gayle, have you thought about the newest Disney Vacation Club Resort,
Disney’s Riviera Resort? This European inspired property with quick access to
the Disney Skyliner has quickly risen to the top of my favorites list!
Gayle, if you have any budding safari guides in your party, I recommend
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas- Kidani Village. My family and I stayed here last August and were in awe of the animals grazing the savanna from sun up to sun down
.
If your family enjoys spending time at Disney Springs, you may want to check out
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa. When booking a villa in the preferred section you can take advantage of the walking path to Disney Springs and the wide array of shopping and dining options there.
Finally, Gayle, I can’t pass up an opportunity to talk about my “home” resort:
Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. This highly themed property that evokes the Pacific Northwest is only a boat ride away from Magic Kingdom Park and has one of my favorite restaurants on site,
Geyser Point Bar & Grill.
Gayle, I hope this helps jumpstart your imagination as you’re choosing accommodations for your upcoming trip. In addition to the resorts I highlighted above, you’ll also find a 2-Bedroom Villa at Disney’s Old Key West Resort, The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Boulder Ridge Villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and Disney’s BoardWalk Villas.
Wherever you choose to call your
home away from home, I wish you a Magical visit. If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to set your rocketship coordinates to arrive back hEAR at planDisney.
As my pal Buzz would say,
“to Infinity and Beyond!”Lauren
