The Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Owners & Lovers Group - 3.0

Also. The wording of the blog post makes me a bit nervous…

“Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa will begin refreshing all its guest rooms, including the Disney Vacation Club Villas”

I hope this doesn’t mean that the DVC rooms are just getting another refresh after 14 years. They are suppose to be getting a full referb. I don’t really won’t them to go to crazy changing the feel of the rooms, but they definitely need more then a refresh. The bathrooms and kitchens need gut jobs. I would be super happy if they end up looking like the hotel rooms. I love the Chip & Dale thing with the accent lighting on the upper rim of the room.

The rooms will undoubtedly be getting Murphy beds. They already installed one in one of the rooms a while back… probably for test purposes.

They would never replace the wood cabinets with the same quality that is there now.

Here’s my guess - the Disney parks blog is written for everyone, so maybe they keep the refurb specifics more generic? The owners are only ones who’d care about what the refurb did or did not include. My non-owner friends wouldn’t really be interested in whether the V-GC bathrooms are getting new just shower curtains or a full remove and replace.

Agree. Id prefer a mix of refresh/refurb. Keep the real wood and maybe just sand and restain, replace showers fully, replace counters. I do not want to see the same type of furniture they put in VDH

What needs to be replaced in the showers?

I actually think they look great. Just give me some fancier shower heads and I’m good to go in there.
