We just stayed at Bay Lake Tower’s 1 bed villa and can vouch that some of the rooms (not all) have a walk in laundry room. LOVE this tour. Would love to try staying here when my kiddos are older and I’m not lugging a double stroller on the bus 😂
Oh yes! I forgot about BLT having the dedicated laundry rooms! 🙌🏼 For sure, the buses can be a hassle, but these villas are HUGE and perfect for families wanting to spread out 😍
@@Mikaleyrucker hey! So I actually think the main tower would have been a bit much for us personally. The contemporary has a very bustling high energy feeling to it with all that goes on there- monorail in and out (which was my oldest’s FAVE thing to watch)Contempo Cafe and Chef Mickeys and even the gift store being all open in there. I would worry it would be loud. Bay Lake was such a quick easy walk over to the main tower but had a more quiet laid back feel. And we personally enjoyed Bay Lake’s pool better than Contemporary’s. Cool fact tho- if you stay at Bay Lake you can use the pools at BOTH Bay Lake and the Contemporary AND the splash pad (which my toddler LOVED). If you stay at the Contemporary- you can only use the Contemporary’s pool. I do wish there had been a grab and go place or coffee place in Bay Lake. All food is over at the Contemporary. Just my 2 cents. ❤
I have been waiting for this one!! My family will be in a one bedroom at old Key West for a week the end of January. This has me so excited! It’s huge!!!
Thank you for the room tour! I'm looking forward to stay there for our upcoming trip next year! Having the split bathroom with extended family really is a must for our family!!!
I fell IN LOVE with Old key west! We got back about a week ago. I was shocked at how much space there was!! We were a party of 6 and still had lots of storage space! We did have the one entrance to the bathroom so that was the only thing I didn’t like. Also, it was SO WONDERFUL to meet you and your family at the pool! I hope you guys had a fantastic time! We had a hard time with the heat but it was still a great trip😊
When you showed the patio I noticed a ton of scaffolding at the next building over. Is OKW under construction/refurb? As you know, I'm already praying🙏 for a pixie dusted upgrade to a 1BR for our anniversary trip in May. This video makes me wish I'd booked it, but rented a studio since it's for ten days. Good thing we're the rope drop to park close people😂 Ellie to so sweet waving and saying hi!!!😊💐🏝🏖😊
They were doing some exterior maintenance on that specific building for some reason. The resort is not under construction though ☺️ The studios are still massive! You will love it!!!
We stayed in the Old Key West 1BR villa last month for vacation. We were in 3425, exactly the area that we requested. We have a family of 5...me and my husband, our two adult daughters and our 8 year old daughter. We LOVED it!! I wish we had planned a resort day so we could enjoy the villa more. Having a washer and dryer was Soooo incredible. We would definitely stay again!! Love love love 💕💕💕
I'll definitely check that out. Planning our 1st trip to Disney World with my kiddos and want to make it as special as I can. Staying on property would top it off😊
Yes! Great call out about the bathroom access. I am the type that does a middle of the night bathroom break and when I stayed over the summer, I had to walk into my sister and her husband’s room to use it at night while they were sleeping…did NOT like that
Hi I have always liked the look of Old Key West from previous videos I have seen. I do have a question. Do the rooms at Old Key West open out to the outside? Meaning there is not an internal hallway from the rooms?
There are only a few buildings with elevators. If you request an accessible room, they will make sure you are either on the first floor or in a building with an elevator ☺️

I feel the same way! How did you feel about not being in the main tower at Contemporary? Did it have the same feeling?

Yes!! That split bathroom is soooo nice 🙌🏼😍
Thank you. This video helped me pick this room for our trip this summer!
This was so helpful! We can’t wait to stay on a 2 bedroom here with extended family in February 😍🥰
Yay! You are going to LOVE it! 🥳

Wow this place is huge!!
It was unbelievable!!

Good morning Bekah happy Tuesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you and I enjoy your channel
Thank you!
We love your videos, thank you for sharing!
Absolutely! Thank you so much! ☺️
I'll definitely check that out. Planning our 1st trip to Disney World with my kiddos and want to make it as special as I can. Staying on property would top it off😊
Yes! This villa would be so magical for a first Disney trip 🥰✨
Great video and room tour. OKW is a great resort, my home resort ❤ x
Thank you! Love OKW! 🌴✨
Can you share your coffee set up?
Yes! We actually shared it in the vlog linked here! -> ua-cam.com/video/aZkY5-8bssg/v-deo.htmlsi=dc9PfMbEIRYkSS7_
Love this video! What grocery store did you use for delivery? Going to be there next May.
We use Amazon Prime ☺️

I'll take that tropical view over a bush covered in snow any day. lol
Hi I have always liked the look of Old Key West from previous videos I have seen. I do have a question. Do the rooms at Old Key West open out to the outside? Meaning there is not an internal hallway from the rooms?
Yes! Old Key West has an outdoor apartment style layout, so all rooms have an exterior entrance ☺️
@BekahHart Ok that is what I thought. Thank you for confirming this.
Thank you for the videos! When you stay at a DVC at grand Floridian Compared to the resort you’re in what is the housekeeping like?
When you are staying with DVC points, housekeeping comes on day 4 and 8 ☺️
@@BekahHart do they change out your towels, replenish tissue and toilet paper daily
@@reneewilkinson2017 trash service comes daily, but you can request towels, tissue, and toilet paper at any point ☺️
Would you still choose to stay at old Key West if you only had a studio or would you chose somewhere else?
Does this resort have elevators in case you were on a second floor?
There are only a few buildings with elevators. If you request an accessible room, they will make sure you are either on the first floor or in a building with an elevator ☺️
Would u choose this 1 bedroom at OKW or Boardwalk’s 1 bedroom villa?
If you’re willing to pay more, I would Boardwalk for the location! But if you’re looking for something with more space and more affordable, go OKW!
I'm renting DVC rental store points for the new Disneyland hotel Villas for Run Disney 2025
So exciting!!
