Hey there, Elizabeth! Welcome back to planDisney! I'm so glad that you've stopped by with your vacation planning question. I just love chatting with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member!
In just weeks, you will be welcomed Home at
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, excitedly ready to begin your next magical Disney adventure at The Most Magical Place on Earth! I could not be happier for you, Elizabeth. Bay Lake Tower is my favorite DVC Resort and one of my Home Resorts, and the Two-Bedroom Villas are my favorite accommodations in all of Walt Disney World Resort. The view of Cinderella Castle from the huge windows in the living room, the spacious full kitchen and living room, the third full bathroom, and the washing machine and dryer make this the perfect home away from home
right in the middle of the magic. They really do go above and beyond to make sure that you have everything you may need for your magical stay at this fantastic Resort.
Now, let's chat about amenities! In all three bathrooms, currently, you will find the smaller, hand-held bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. On our last two stays at Bay Lake Tower in the past year, we have had one or two small bottles of generic clear liquid laundry detergent provided in the laundry room or laundry closet. I love using liquid laundry detergent, so, I was very happy about this switch-up from the powder detergent! If you like using fabric softener or dryer sheets, pack some in your suitcase, as this was not provided. In the kitchen, the soap for the dishwasher is also a generic, clear dishwashing liquid, and we are usually provided with one bottle. However, if you run out of anything, Hakuna Matata! It means "no worries!" Just call housekeeping from your in-room phone, and a Cast Member will happily bring you some more of anything you may need.
Did you know that you can
rent a poolside cabana at one of the two pools at Disney's Contemporary Resort?! My family and I LOVE spending a Disney day relaxing in a private, shaded, comfy cabana! You are provided with a Bluetooth speaker for your Disney tunes, a TV, a safe, a ceiling fan, towels, a fridge with complimentary cold drinks, a complimentary fruit tray, and an attendant to make sure all of your needs are met. It is the perfect way to unwind, relax and kick your feet up after some days running around the theme parks. And get this! While
DVC discounts are always changing, right now, eligible DVC Members can get 15 percent off of cabana rentals! How awesome is that?! To book one, just
call DVC Member Services or (407) WDW-PLAY, which is (407) 939-7529.
Elizabeth, I hope this was helpful today, and I hope that you have the most memorable upcoming vacation full of fun and pixie dust! Please stop by any time with any vacation planning or DVC questions.
I hope to see ya real soon,
Mandy
