I was surprised myself as I didn't like the idea much at first- but last time at Cali Grill- while out on the observation deck- it is not in sight lines at all. I personally don't like either the Contemporary or BLT- style wise-- I prefer Poly for instance--but that is a matter of taste not something that ruined anything for anyone else let me ask you this - do you think either 'wing' was attaractive ? I thought they both looked crappy next to the building and the meeting facility attached to it looks far worse than BLT further away - just IMHO
Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer ^^^ Well, of course this is a matter of taste. It all is. But a huge Miami Beach Esque addition onto a structure that is remarkably tied to DISNEY? Done in Bad taste. I prefer the Poly, too. Beautiful, beautiful example of pristine, and very classic Disney. And yes, I thought the wings that were there were fine. Part of the Contemp, but not ostentatiously so.

Each resort used to feel independent and intimate and was it's own unique world we could disappear into. Enjoyed many of the resorts. I feel BLT is just too massive and jarring and ruins that little corner of the world....I feel the AKL villas absolutely ruin the feeling of being way out in the deep wilderness/jungle/savannah that you had at AKL before. Heck, just more roads and confusing traffic flow ruin it! The only cluster of resots that works for me is Boardwalk/Beach Club/Yacht Club. So how's that for being anti-wait-and-see? lol! I'm just so bummed at the mouse these days. Going to HKDL and see if I can get as happy as the Spirit! (jk, not really going. sigh.)
