@@jemlovestfm absolutely! We had fun filming. 🙂

There were some Mary Poppins features in the room. (My husband LOVES Mary Poppins, so I think he’d actually appreciate some of the features in this room.)

@BAKER22-l4u I really felt there was! I should have zoomed in more, but there are Mary Poppins touches throughout the whole room. I went in depth with those in my first Grand referb video from this time last year. I'm sorry you don't feel the Disney magic in the room. The castle was pretty magical for us. Hope you find it in your stay! 🙂

​@@MissLauraSquaredI agree, the Mary Poppins theme is beautifully appointed. The previous rooms here, while they did have a bunch of hidden Mickeys, didn't feel as "disney" to me as these do. 😊

@@MissLauraSquared thank you so much!!!! It was such a nice vacation. I sure needed it! 😍

@lizbethgonzalez4695 absolutely! It was a lovely room. We enjoyed be right by the pool.

We thought they were pretty decent. We also used the extra blankets that are provided. We like it cold to bundle up. 😀 I will say our little one preferred to use her soft blanket from home has her base layer, and the Disney blankets on top. I hope that helps.

We are Florida residents. :)

@BAKER22-l4u of course! At the time of us staying there, it was around 3k a night. I've seen it go higher during peak seasons. Hope this helps.

@@beeksmcgeeks thank you

I can totally relate to that. I was in another room at a different resort with the sliding doors, and I totally understand. I'm sorry it dampered your experience.

That is good info! I will ask for a King bed next time. I would like to have a corner room with two windows.

It really was. It would be a blessing to stay there again.:)

Thanks for asking! We called Disney's reservation line. Every Deluxe resort (non-DVC) has a presidential (and some VP as well) suite. They aren't always advertised on the website. However, if you call, you can check availability and rates for these rooms. Hope that helps. 😊

What a lovely memory! I would love to see that suite in person.

Yes, each deluxe resort has their own club level lounge offerings that match the theme to the resort. The food is different every day. There are also dedicated cast in the lounge to help with any questions you may have for your trip. I know this food might not be everyone's favorite, but each lounge is different. The food at the Poly was good, too. So was Coronado Springs and Beach Club Resort. My favorite lounge food is probably from Animal Kingdom Lodge.

@@beeksmcgeeks good to know. Thank you

We were on the 5th floor! It was so much to be up there. We were still able to see the Electric Water Pageant through the trees. It was so lovely! I don't believe the other floors have vaulted ceilings, but it is something I can look into. 😀

Only the top floor villas have the "vaulted ceilings". Because of that, they have the sofa bed instead of the murphy bed (i.e. there isn't room for attaching it to the wall with the angled ceiling). The other villas all have the new murphy beds in the living room.

@@tecowdw good info! I honestly didn't know that was the reason. Thank you

Wow! That must have been so cool! It was such a lovely room.

Thanks for asking! Yes, this is a standard room at the Grand Floridian. This room is located in the Boca Chica building. The only rooms converted to studios for DVC were in Old Pine Key building. Hope that helps!

😮​@beeksmcgeeks also the studios have a microwave

@Michael-nz5kn thank you. I forgot about that. The dvc rooms do have microwaves.

🤣 Thank you! I try to show as much details as possible. I do have a two bedroom OKW tour coming up that us a little hurried bc I could hear the kiddos outside!

It really wasn't too bad. We were all the way at the end of the hall, too. The Boulder Ridge building isn't that big to begin with. It was a bit of a hike to get to the main lobby of the Wilderness Lodge. Busses, however, were pretty close. Hope that helps. 😊

They really were! I was happy to have the space. Thank you so much.

Absolutely. The balcony doors were pretty thick. Thank you for asking!

We couldn't see the EWP from the room, but just down the hall is a big window that you can peer out and I think see it. Also, there is a dock where the boats run where I believe you can see it as well. (I have not seen it from there myself.) Thank you for the compliment. If you book this room, make sure to book this exact room. I have another room tour up where we booked a fireworks view again and the view was completely different.

It really is a nice resort. ☺️ Hope to go back!

I wish the treadmill were still there! That would have been so cool to run while watching the animals. 🦒🦓 Thank you for the compliment!

Absolutely! So blessed to have the opportunity to do so. 🙂

@@beeksmcgeeks is this club level by the way?

@jenniferrundle6870 yes! And the staff was out of this world. They remembered everyone's names and had things waiting that my family liked. We also had special desserts in our room every night that were not in the lounge. The fridge was also stocked every day with drinks and food for us without asking.

Thank you so much!!! It will be a great room once the construction is done. But we were able to step just outside the building and see fireworks, so a win for me.

By far, one of the best in the Contemporary Resort. We were blessed to have great weather and enjoy the balcony for fireworks.

Hahahaha! Facts. Just would have preferred live action vs animated ones! 🤣

Haha, the sink part isn't. The bathroom part is. We were at the all stars a few weeks after this. It is actually the same "size" water closet, but the door on the shower makes it feels smaller since their doors slide. The double vanity is definitely a nice area in this room!

Rack rate on this room is anywhere from 2,000 to 5,000 a night, depending on the season. Discounts can absolutely be found for this room, such as Floroda Resident or Annual Passholder. It very comfortably sleeps 6. The primary room sleeps 2, and the 2nd bedroom sleeps 4. Hope that helps!

Fr fr!!!!! It is so much nicer than any place I've stayed before. I literally went home and bought the same pillows they have on the beds. They are so comfy!

Agreed! Before we stayed in this room, I thought the same thing. It's nice being on the end of the area, so we only had people on one side of us. Gave the kids a little more freedom with noise.

@@beeksmcgeeks I’d like to stay at WL if I can ever come up enough money , so far my budget only allows Pop Century and sometimes Port Orleans lol, wilderness is by far one of my favorite resorts and I honestly like it better then some of the monorail MK resorts , whispering canyon is my favorite restaurant also

WL is a great one, too! Honestly, we do a lot of split stays. That is the best way to check out new resorts. One day on the end of your stay vs the whole time there. And we rarely stay rack rate. They have had a lot of great discounts this summer and into fall. Port Orleans is a BEAUTIFUL resort. Can't go wrong with the food at that resort. And I love the Skyliner at Pop.

@@beeksmcgeeks I’m an AP holder so I get those discounts, also I recently applied for the Disney College Program so if I get into that ( fingers crossed!!!) I’ll get cast member discounts, I’ll definitely have to do 1 day staycations if I end up getting down there , we stayed at WL years and years ago and I’ve always wanted to stay again , I really love the rustic feel it has and the theming is great , plus I’ve been standard rooms go for around $285-$290 a night with my discounts so I’ll just have to catch it at the right time , my next trip is October for the Halloween party but I’m staying at Pop

@chrisbowling7221 congratulations and good luck on becoming a CP! I hope you get it. I hear they get amazing discounts. I've known recent CPs who said they had a blast. Enjoy your October trip! I love being in Disney that time of year. It's so pretty.

Wow, what cool info and history you were able to obtain! Thanks for sharing all of your learned knowledge from AKL. I appreciate you taking the time to type it all up.

Thank you so much! I love Disney rooms so much. I appreciate the kind words. If you want any other rooms toured, please let me know.

You're not wrong... but it does sleep a lot of people and comes with world-class service.

It's definitely a room designed for important people with assistants or secret service... not us at that time. 🤣🤣🤣 It did make a nice place to lay out outfits for the next day.

The nightly turndown had special treats each night. I have pictures of those on my Instagram: Beeks.McGeeks Other than that, it was the same concierge as the rest of the club. They club staff is great at ALK. We paid for all additional offerings they helped us set up.

Bigger than mine, too! Thank you for the kind words.

It popped up on the website the day we were looking for our trip and we snatched it up! I have seen other Presidential Suites on the site before as well. You can call the reservation line and ask about that room specifically. They are often booked up when I look. Hope you find what you are looking for! 🙂

Same. I need to find it for listening to at home.

My nephews ran laps EVERY DAY on that balcony. Thank you for the kind words.

Definitely do a room on the other side. I can't remember the room number, but it's in my other Wilderness video, and it was wonderful, and the cabins were below us. Go for a room on that side of the building for sure! (If you want, my Instagram has pictures of the fireworks from the room. It is a "partial view" for sure.

Hi! Thank you so much. If there are any other rooms you would like to see, please let me know. 🙂

I think it was the Lord letting us get it, for real. It just popped up one day, and we were so excited to book it. I know it's rare, but you can find discounts on this room and other suites. Rack Rate is 2-5k a night, depending on the time of year you plan to stay. I hope that helps. And I hope you can find it available when you want it! :)

@@beeksmcgeeks Thanks so much!

It was nice treat to stay here, for sure! My favorite room I have ever stayed in my far.

Yes, it it. I am happy they went with this. Especially when it comes to the Murphy bed in the living room. A real mattress vs a fold out is much nicer.

I can't wait to do it again. So much better than the reviews I read before riding.
