LBV Village resort and spa v Grande Villas LBV

[minnie moomoo]

Thanks. I have seen you mention LBV resort a few times. I love the look of both. The pool area at LBV resort and spa looks amazing.

I think the location, walkable stores and food places of Grande Villas has swung it.

Is is extremely OTT that I'm logged in on Walmart groceries planning my delivery shop ? 😂

We stayed at cypress pointe in 2014 for 2 weeks and loved it! Our 3 bed unit was so spacious, we took my sister, brother in law and 2 nieces and booked one night at art of animation for them to get early fastpass booking but they couldn’t wait to get back to ‘our big apartment!’ The pool was good too and always pretty quiet when we went in October.
We walked to loads of food places including chillis, millers, steak and shake and Olive Garden and Disney springs is so close…I have read some have walked it but I wouldn’t fancy that walk! Still only a few minutes in an Uber though.

We have stayed at Grande Villas around 11 times, the location is great for restaurants even with 'Crossroads' area being redevelopment.

Thankyou both.
I am getting excited about the Grande Villas.
All the space will be needed after a week in a Disney room.

Do either of you have experience with the sofabed ? I think this will be my second 16 year old sons bed.

Danisleigh, Olive Garden is on my list. Looks like one of the places that's slightly further out. Was the walk still ok ?

Scooby 52, 11 visits is high praise, they're obviously doing something right.

Do all buildings have elevators ? Are the balconies big enough for a chill and glass of vino ?

DH slept on the sofa bed in our one bed villa there last time as I got so cross with his snoring. He said it was fine

Most have a balcony with a table and chairs. Pretty sure they all have lifts.

[minnie moomoo]

Thankyou. Well I think you've help me made the right decision. Now to look at menus and plan what I'm ordering in 10 months time 😂😂

All blocks have lifts, balcony's are fine for a bottle of wine and a seat to pool watch, try and get a room with a pool view ;-) top floor is best so you don't get any noise from above, the sliding patio doors seem to resonate through the floor to the room below. Tiki bar is nice as are the hot tubs ;-)

I was wondering about pool view. Would be nice to people watch but I was concerned about noise, asking for a high floor to avoid the worst of that is a great tip

Pool noise has never been an issue, but we go in November, they do have aerobics and a quiz around one of the pools during the day, i think they call it the whale pool, the other one is the Turtle pool, look on google satellite images you will see what i mean, we think the best accommodation block to be in is 'Block F' top floor pool view ;-)
