And to think this resort is a Deluxe. Wilderness Lodge and AKL even thought have less expensive rooms have far superior lobbys.

Originally Posted By demderedoseguys I hear a lot of people say they don't like the Yacht Club. My wife and I go there every year for our anniversary and always request a room that gives us a nice view of the Boardwalk. As I said, I own DVC at BW, but it is a much better view looking at the BW from the YC than the other way around. We use the quiet pools wherever we go but once in a while I like to go in the main pool and float around.
