Just wondering at check in do we go to the GF or is there a different area to check in for VGF?
It’s different for the villas, it’s near the wedding pavilion photos of the villas lobby and pool area . the pool is Fabulous. You won’t be disappointed .

Terrific, I just wasn't sure if we checked in at GF and then walked round to the Villas, so handy to know that it is separate.

I don't think you will be disappointed with GF, the pool area is really nice too. x
Thank you, after everyone's replies and photos today i am really looking forward to experiencing VGF now.

We stayed in a studio at VGF a couple of years ago and it was utterly gorgeous. One of my favourite hotels I’ve ever stayed in.

Have never stayed at BLT but love VGF, stayed in studio for 2 weeks and loved they are stunning. We are going back this year, had hoped to get a theme park view at BLT for the last few nights of the holiday but looks like it is all booked, awww well will have to settle
As for the storage always ample for us but on the 2 of us

Thanks LadyDebs86 and Annabella, after my initial disappointment I am really looking forward to VGF now.

We will be getting collected by chauffeur, courtesy of Virgin UC, for our return to the airport and I was wondering do we give the address for VGF or the slightly different address of the GF for collection?

I would give them the address for the VGF as it has its own pick up point at the lobby. Enjoy! x

Great will do, I wasn't sure if it had a separate drop off/pick up. Thank you.

We've stayed at both and loved them both!

Being able to walk to BLT after leaving the park is a big advantage but VGF are beautiful and the boat is good if you're going back to the resort after the monorail stops.

VGF have their own entrance, lobby, check in etc. The lobby is beautiful!

Have a fantastic time!
