17 DAYS UNTIL SUGARLOAF CLUB
17 DAYS UNTIL SUGARLOAF CLUB
Have fun!
I noticed your avatar, just received my wife’s new Loungefly Marie wallet today! Nice Mother’s Day gift...
EEEK! Got a call from Disney Guest Services that the YC is having some room inventory issues during our dates (5/19-5/24) so they are moving us on over to the Grand Floridian! We were doing CL at the YC so they have moved us to Sugarloaf. I am excited and a little at a loss since I have not stayed at a monorail resort since my very first trip at the Contemporary when I was 5 years old. Guess I'll be spending the next 12 days learning all about the GF!
I get mistakes happen etc, but I find it so odd when the move people after they have booked. Do most people go along with this? Stay at a hotel they did not intend on staying? I don't know if I could, unless it was a mind blowing deal, I don't want Disney dictating where I stay and spend my $.

That's happened to a lot of folks.
Guess some convention really dropped the ball on the number of rooms they needed
Funny thing is, with AP rates at least, GF is the cheapest Deluxe for that period so it's ironic that they also ended up moving so many folks there when the BC/YC oversold itself.
Hope everyone that gets moved is happy with their move. So far it seems they are. I know some are really married to that pool at BC/YC and GF isn't going to be the same though.
Haven't seem a complaint as of yet though
The convention is at YC/BC and it's week after next, just before Mem Day, based on the dates people are being movedWhat are the dates of the convention at yc/bc? Or was convention moved to gf?
They are all apart of a lockoff yes. So there will always be a connecting door to the studio next door. Only dedicated units are the 2 beds and grand villas.We are staying in a DVC one bedroom in October. We would like a king bed and a non-connecting room (too many bad experiences with noise). Is that possible? On the first posts it didn’t list one bedrooms, it looked like they were all part of lock-offs. Has anyone had noise issues staying in a DVC one bedroom?
Any experience with how soundproofed these connecting doors are?. Thank you!They are all apart of a lockoff yes. So there will always be a connecting door to the studio next door. Only dedicated units are the 2 beds and grand villas.
As for a king bed each 1 bed has a master bedroom with a king bed, tub, and shower along with a living room with a queen sofa sleeper.
I have no experience at the VGF. However, other connecting doors it helped a lot to simply place a towel along the bottom of the door, which significantly dampened any noise.Any experience with how soundproofed these connecting doors are?. Thank you!
Thanks!
I hope everyone had a Happy Mother's Day too! Wish I was at the GF all day, instead of in the rain
Hope all the GF mothers had a Happy Mother's Day!
A good idea if there were LV rooms available. But there are not. So not an optionThe lv is not much more and many have a peek of the castle for less price

For your situation I would go to the lobby and check in and ask for what you want, they can look through inventory to find you best option.
Just returned on Friday from my first stay at Grand Floridian, and I have to say that I am now spoiled for life. We were pixie dusted with a Club Level room at Sugar Loaf, which didn't hurt, but I was so impressed with the resort and the service.
I don't know if I can go back to staying at other resorts again -- the 5 minute Monorail ride to MK was just so darned convenient!

I’ve stayed in a 1 br. villa at the VGF twice and have never heard a peep from the neighbors. Love the 1 br.s, they are so spacious. We’ll be back & staying in a 1 br. for 11 nights in 8 months.Any experience with how soundproofed these connecting doors are?. Thank you!
