Looks like the lock-off 2 bed villa will sleep 10, as they've added a murphy bed to the living room too, and 9 people in the dedicated 2 bed.

I think it's a real shame they've moved away from the floor plan they used at AKV and BLT having 2 bathrooms in the one beds. I love that layout.

The studios look nice.

I'd be tempted to try the tower studios to stretch the points out but likelihood at 7months? Not very.

Will be keeping a keen eye on ebay - I bet you'll see those tower studios come up for $ rent way over the actual point price.

Guessing Tower Studios will start at 6 or 7 points, Studios at 12 to 14 points.

We do too, so much better for us.

There's no way we would do a Tower Studio when we were empty nesters- we cannot sleep in a Queen bed, having slept the past 25 years in a Superking (US King) at home. So they would be totally ruled out, even if very low points.
Glad to see they have put 5 sleep surfaces in the 1 bed- shame the little murphy is in the master bedroom rather than living room, but its better than nothing- not sure we'd like one of our kids in the bedroom though, that's the whole point of the 1 bed in that we get our own room.
The pool looks a lot better than on the original renderings.
Prices look very high to me for the cash. I had heard it would be moderate on the points per night, but not convinced of that at all now- was always sceptical of that claim though, DVD do not usually leave anything on the table unless they have to.

That little studio looks a bit like a travel lodge.

Other rooms look nice though

I’d love to see some more pics of the tower studio to work out where the kitchenette is! We’ve guessed that it can’t be in the cupboard next to the toilet so it must be in the one to the side of the bed, which would mean sitting on the floor to use the microwave? :-)

Sorry but I’m out. Never fancied the concept anyway, just looks like a bland Marriott or similar. Plus the location just doesn’t work for me, it’s not walking distance to anything and don’t get me started on my feelings towards the skyliner.

If it was just me and my husband and the points were ridiculously low then I might have considered the tower studios to save loads of points but I doubt they’ll be that low plus we have 3 young children so it’s never going to happen!

The only thing that interests me is the restaurant which we will look to try out on our Christmas trip if we can get a reservation

I wonder is there a coffee machine, or a TV or even any other such essentials.

Nothing suprises me with Disney hence I'm asking.

I am going to go against the flow here, I like the idea of the tower studio, it'll be cheap on points and its a room with a bed
