Accommodations Review:

Great room! Lots of space. The whirlpool tub was great after a long day of walking. Had a good location overlooking the pool, but yet far enough away that wasn't noisy. The king-size bed was wonderful also. Nice to have refrigerator, coffee maker and microwave. Never used the stove or oven. Who wants to cook on vacation anyway??? Overall, loved the villa!

DVC Members

Room # and Location Description:

2032. Main floor, just around corner from lobby.

Room Location Pros & Cons:

Only pros! Loved the location. Short walk to lobby, boardwalk and pool! No elevators! Far enough away from lobby that it was a quiet location. Just loved everything about it! Will request it for our next visit.

Check-In / Check-Out Comments:

Check-in was smooth, however, room was not ready until after 4:00. check-out was very smooth.

WDW Transportation Comments:

Didn't use much. Had car.

Restaurant / Lounge Review:

Only ate at the bakery and ice cream shop. Both were nice.

Pool Description / Comments:

Pool was great. The slide was fun and our daughter really enjoyed it.

What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This Resort?

I have stayed at Port Orleans, Wilderness Lodge, Caribbean Beach and Boardwalk was the best hands down!!!! Maybe it had a lot to do with being a 2-bedroom villa vs a small hotel room, but absolutely loved everything about the resort! The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, even the people out on the Boardwalk were wonderful. It always amazes me how Disney finds people who are happy all the time! There were fires going on while we were there and I know several of the employees had to be worried about their homes catching on fire, but you would have never known it. They were still all smiles and friendly. Simply AMAZING!!! That's why we keep coming back!

This was our first time using our DVC points and I am so happy that we became members knowing that the Boardwalk is our home away from home!!!!

Other Comments:

The Boardwalk is now our favorite resort to stay at.  Thank goodness since this is where we have our DVC points at. We will be using the Boardwalk a lot more in the future I'm sure!!!!
