Headed down in 2 weeks!!! We’re beyond excited, we’ve had a lot going on the last six months and are in desperate need of a vacation!
Question regarding the studio villas: I know we don’t get mousekeeping until day 4, but will we be able to get additional toiletries, coffee or plates is needed before then? This is our first DVC stay so we’ve got some new things to learn! (And I may have asked this before but honestly can’t remember if I have! )

In our experience, if towels were replaced then so were supplies. After our first stay, we have always opted for towel service so everything is replaced daily. We go through a lot of towels.
I will say Poly has been hit or miss with added towel service. Again in our experience, the dedicated DVCs (VGF and BLT) had no issues adding daily towel service. I guess because Poly is a resort / DVC hybrid, they seem to have issues. Last April, the CM at the front desk didn’t even know what I was taking about. She had to call a supervisor.
For additional toiletries and coffee, you'll get charged for any additional (Just bring your own or buy bigger bottles from the gift shops). To get more plates, just call and more should be brought. FYI, there is only paper plates in the studios.
Most definitely. We ordered our twilight feast about an hour before the MK fireworks and watched it from our LV balcony! We did have to microwave some of the items as it became lukewarm during the trek from the GCH.Yeah we may have to pay for the towel service also. I am ok reusing but DH isn’t so great about it...
I just thought of another question, can you order the twilight feast when staying in the villas?

We hit the teens in the countdown today! 19 days until we’re home again.

Are you using points? If not, you should get mousekeeping every day.
Have a great time!
Hope you have a great trip .
I didn't remember lounge chairs but I guess those are new. Nice to know we can rent a cabana at the Poly even though we are staying at BLT. The Oasis Bar has some great food and drinks and is a good use of a QS credit if you are on the dining plan.A couple of questions about the Oasis pool: Do the cabanas come with lounge chairs as well as the couch and chairs? Some in my group will want sun and some shade. Also, are there any desserts available at the Oasis pool bar other than the malasadas (mickey bars, etc.)?
Are small pool floats and pool noodles available for purchase?
Thank you!

This really doesn't make sense to me either but that's what the cast member told me when I called and ordered the cabana at the Oasis pool in August (we are, by the way, staying at Poly). He said as long as you are staying a an official Disney Resort.I’m confused....if you can’t pool hop between resorts how can you book a cabana? Is this only if you are staying in a villa?
We had a fairly long discussion about this a week or two ago over on the GF thread (I think it was that one, might have been BC/YC or the CL one). According to more than one CM and the wording on the Disney website cabanas can be rented to anyone staying at any WDW resort. The new YC/BC ones, however, do not allow that and you have to be staying at the YC/BC to rent one of those. So apparently this is the only official way to be allowed to pool hop to the Poly, CR, and GF. I called the DSS myself and asked about it, and that’s what they read from their info and other people got the same info when they called. I don’t think it’s done often, but I guess since I didn’t know you could even do it until I called I could be wrong and it could be very popularI’m confused....if you can’t pool hop between resorts how can you book a cabana? Is this only if you are staying in a villa?
