Pixie Dusted Greetings, Patti!
Welcome Home and welcome to planDisney! How exciting that you have a Disney vacation just around the riverbend. Patti, don't you just love the home-away-from-home amenities of the one-bedroom Villas? With full-sized kitchens with gadgets and gizmos aplenty, the in-room washer and dryer so you pack less, plus the option to sit back and relax and let your dining table present your dinner - vacations are so much easier.
Patti, I love
Disney's BoardWalk Villas. In fact, we have a stay coming up in March in a one-bedroom Villa ourselves. I double-checked with Guest Services who let me know that refurbishments are currently expected to continue through May of 2025, though this is subject to change.
In my experience, when the Resorts are magically transforming, you may hear or see a bit of construction noise or areas during the day. However, Disney does its best to limit disruptions to Guests, and typically construction does not take place at night. Additionally, they always try to time the construction areas so that there are alternate amenities available. For example, if a pool is undergoing refurbishment, they offer an alternative pool to enjoy.
Our family stayed in one of the newly renovated
BoardWalk Studios in 2024, and indeed it was sparkling with new features. Bright and airy, with refreshing new decor, and plenty of space for our family of five, it was pixie dusted indeed. Also, with a BoardWalk view, you will have the added benefit of overlooking the beautiful Crescent Lake and watching the boats go by. It is a lovely way to think of all the happiest things (it's the same as having wings.) In fact, grabbing a cup of joe (or should I say Joffrey's) and a breakfast pastry from
Carousel Coffee, while enjoying the morning sounds and views of the BoardWalk, is one of my favorite ways to start my Disney day.
I hope this helps you, Patti! If you have any further Disney Vacation Club questions, soar back here to see me. I'll be right here, at the second star to the right, and straight on til morning!
Magically Yours,
Keri
