I know it's not for everyone, but the design style that they did for these just hits me perfectly. The mix of mid-century modern AND Tiki related? I can't handle it. The green subway tile on the backsplash? The electric light parade piece? The Tiki Room artwork? It's like they were building it with me in mind!

The only thing is, I think they may have missed the fact that I'll never be able to afford one. Oh well. I'll look at the pictures and drool, and potentially steal some ideas for remodeling a future home.

Right there with you.

Even though the chances of you or I ever staying in one is slim, it would not surprise me one bit if they were booked solid from now until Florida is once again underwater.

Yes they are unheated plunge pools.

What exactly classifies a pool as a "plunge" pool?

Staying there will be like living in a fishbowl. Everybody from the ferry will be watching you with a telephoto lens.

You mean when I stay there with Jennifer Anniston this coming May?

What exactly classifies a pool as a "plunge" pool?

I don't know for sure, but I am assuming it means large enough to plunge your body completely under the water, but not large enough to actually swim.

Yes they are unheated plunge pools.

"Plunge pool" might be a stretch as they are only 3ft deep... seems more like mini splash pool, unheated.

We are staying there in June...Looks great to me... We will enjoy having cocktails on the veranda and plunge pool...and maybe put a show on for the ferry... You know you can see right into the units at Bay Lake Tower from the monorail but I don't think anyone has been too concerned about that.
I just wish they had been three bedroom villas like the ones on top of Bay Lake where we usually stay...and I will miss having a dedicated lounge just for the DVC like the Top Of The World...
but still...can't wait!

 

[Goofyernmost]

UGH. Why are DVC memberships so expensive? T.T
One day I will rent you. One. Day.

I've been saying that about staying at the Contemporary since 1983. I could stay there now, but, now that I'm older I have become more frugal. (Translation: Cheap)

Disney are calling them plunge pools.

Why no heat? My old bones could use some heat after a day in the parks.

What amounts to a 2x4 puddle of water baking the florida sun all day?? More than likely that will be warmer than a hot bath by the time 4 PM rolls around.

 

[DisneyGigi]

They are absolutely beautiful. I will be sticking to the hopes of staying at the Poly MK view for even just a night. We stay 10 days so doing the math, that is at least 29,000 just for our stay, no food and no tickets.. Ya, not happening! Unless... the whole lottery winning thing pans out. Lol

 

[polynesiangirl]

Holy moly. I wasn't actually expecting anything too impressive (let's just say I'm holding on to a lot of mixed emotions about this remodel,) but these are gorgeous. Wowza. Yes please!

Lol. For one day!

 

[prfctlyximprct]

So who wants to go in on playing the lottery with me??

 

[ToInfinityAndBeyond]

Lol. For one day!

For a billion dollars.

 

[ToTBellHop]

I have to admit--and they would have to be, at this price point--these are pretty spectacular. Never gonna happen for me, but it's nice to dream.

 

[ShookieJones]

So who wants to go in on playing the lottery with me??

I'm in. This was the exact conversation with my wife at the dinner table after perusing this god forsaken thread.
I'm not a money loving person by any stretch of the imagination, but when i see things like these bungalows I sit there wishing for the kinda coin that would get me stuff like this.

 

[gmajew]

They look great crazy expensive but if you can afford it then God bless Ya, I would stay in one for sure.
