Hi James, thanks for reaching out to the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. There is no better place to be staying during your vacation this summer than Disney's Beach Club Villas.
Stormalong Bay pool area is by far my favorite pool on Walt Disney World property. From the lazy river to the 2300-foot-long waterslide and the sand bottom pools, this area cannot be beat!
While room requests are never guaranteed, I think your travel agent did a great thing by notating your account when they made your reservation for you. I think it would be a great idea to go ahead and call the day or two before you check-in just to put in a reminder about your special request. Also, at check-in, feel free to mention it to the Cast Member helping you once again. Like I said before, room requests aren't ever guaranteed, but I know first hand how hard Cast Members work to make each vacation special and if there is anything they can do, I know they will try to make it happen for you.
I hope you have a magical stay at Disney's Beach Club Villas. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out.
