10-year cost of the 7 resorts - are BLT/VWL/BCV worth their much higher cost?

[js]

I do not know how old you are or if you have kids.
I can say that I have stayed at SSR, AKL, BLT and BWVs (not BC but same area).

I own at SSR and have 420 points, which I purchased resale before the new rules were in place about using points for cruises/Concierge Collection, etc.

Anyway, I have two children, who are almost 19 and 15.
I purchased thinking about what I wanted for the future, not for the moment.
Although having the monorail at BLT or walking distance to MK is great, that is just a part of my trip. We enjoy going out at night too, even when the kids were smaller so although BLT wasn't fully built yet but we could purchase, that was out since we also like a bigger resort too, not just access to the monorail.

We purchased SSR so we can have access to walk to DTD. Also, as the kids got older (and my dh and I did too), they kids could do something on their own at night (walk to DTD). Sometimes they bring friends. They could go to movies, Disney Quest and we all can go to dinner at a variety of places.

I just stayed at BWVs for 9 nights and it was nice to have access to the BW, DS and Epcot. But, we didn't do parks every day and didn't want to get on busses just to go eat so we ate on the BW and there is the Swan/Dolphin, but without getting on the busses, that got a little old too.

Like they say to each his own but you should also think if you want big/small, what you want access to, etc.

Good luck and let us know what you decide.
