Old Key West

[MickeyMoose15]

I'm a Disney Vacation Club member and every time I head to Walt Disney World, I have to stay at the Old Key West resort. I've made a lot of friendships with the cast members there. They are always very nice. I can't imagine going to WDW and not staying there.

What are your opinions on it?

OKW rocks but you don't have to stay there being a DVC member. You can stay at any Disney owned resort without paying a transfer fee. Our home base is also OKW but last summer we stayed at the Boardwalk and Dec 1999 we stayed at the Poly. Just an FYI.

Yeah, we plan to use our points to stay at the Disneyland Hotel when we stop by in 2003.

OKW

I Just had my fist stay at OKW...

Overall, I Enjoyed it, The location of the buildings was great, and I also liked how the parking areas were just steps from your room. Olivia's was good as well, and if you were able to get there early there was virtually no-one else in the resturaunt.

The only downside to my vist were the times I attempted to use Disney Transport, Well the buses, They could have came more frequently, and unlike other hotels at disney, they did not have any cast memer with a palm piolit like device seeing where everyone waiting was going. The boat ride to the village was also pretty bad, The boats are small, infrequent and cannot handle many people, i think it was 12. My advice is if you are staying at OKW you should rent a car, It is well worth it.

Since we are taking my mom, dad, sister, brother, aunt, and me to Walt Disney World in December 2002, we are looking at a Grand Villa. Unfortunately there are not any that are very close to a bus stop or a short walk from the General Store.

I also own DVC but in boardwalk. I have stayed @ OKW and do enjoy it. It is much quieter @ OKW and more relaxing. When you say you have to stay there is it because you enjoy it that mcuh oryou don't realize you can stay @ other DVC resorts as well as other Disney resorts,although the pts are HIGH for the disney resorts?
