OKW - Your top tips

[Mandsjh]

Seen this question posted for SSR and it's a great idea.

We will be staying in a 2-bed villa. There will be 6 of us - 2 adults and kids aged 18, 17, 9 & 7.

Any tips or advice greatly received!

If you are on dining plan, and get a QS meal from Goods to Go, order apple / orange juice and save for breakfasts in room or to take to park (use your refillable mug for drink with your meal). We also saved desert for breakfast too (choc brownies kept well in fridge).
With so many of you, hide coffee, shower gels etc that are replenished daily, as sometimes we found if we left the remaining few out, none would get replenished. We ended up taking a few home too this way! They'll pop round anything you are short off, but that worked better for us.

Great idea for the thread, we are also staying at OKW in August, so will be watching thread with interest.

Agree re the orange or apple juice instead of a carbonated as you will have refill mugs. Towards the end of our stay we discovered we were offered a bag of crisps instead of a dessert .Don't know if they were meant to offer this as it was always same person who did. Breakfast isn't worth it from Goods to Go you would be better getting something in the parks rather than waste it there. Housekeeping was hit or miss and agree also about the shampoo. Towards the end of our 2 weeks there it would have been end of 3 week holiday and we ran out of shampoo shower gel. Mousekeeping were a bit lax in putting out toiletries and on our last night I actually had to call as we were left none. Towels were another issue you would be better leaving a note to ask for towels for 6. My DH was forever hunting them down to get a towel for our 5th person.
We used to take out car to HH and leave our refill mugs in car so that we could get of at Hospitality get a drink then drive back to villa. we were last stop before hospitality and pool had no refill station so was easier to do this.

We've never stayed onsite before, but really looking forward to our stay at OKW.

We stayed at the OKW back in September.. with regards to clean towels we found if we put the used towels into the bath they were replaced. we used to hide shampoo's, washing powder etc every morning so always had plenty. We were in a 2- bedroom villa if you haven't got a car blocks 62,63 are just across the road from Hospitality house great location
