Your thought on the Contemporary are bang on!! It’s like the words are coming out of our mouths 🤣 We also get terrible “land sickness” after coming off the Disney cruises too. Love your videos ❤️
I love the Contemporary. Brutalist architecture. When they built it, they built each room separately, and then they were lifted by crane and slid into the grid of the hotel. Google will show some pictures. They had planned that each room could be removed for refurbishing over the years, but they didn't count on the building and ground settling so it didn't work.
Bay lake was ok. Needed an update when we stayed one night for MK. Contemporary a little boring. We loved Boulder Ridge at Wilderness lodge so much we added on a small contract for our DVC. Great for MK. We love the riviera too as our home resort. 👍
Bay lake currently going through a full much needed refurb. Murphy beds will come to most rooms, I imagine a lot more socket/USB points and I would like to think as a minimum they will add a small coffee shop, like Riviera, and a small Baylake DVC shop.
Me and my husband played the outdoor chess at Riviera while waiting for our breakfast reservation. I was losing until a kid came over and helped me win 😂
Thank you again for taking us along on your latest adventure - in fact thank you for sharing all of your 2024 adventures. Have a fantastic Christmas and an awesome 2025 🤩🤩
Fishing at Disney was a blast for us. 3 of us fished,while the fourth took pics. Matthew was our guide, and we left from Fort Wilderness. Each of us caught 10 to 12 bass from Bay Lake. He did say he thought the fishing was better in that area other than the boats that go out of Riverside, etc. The guide assists you with whatever you need. Have a Merry Christmas!
When I see you have a vlog up, I get all excited! There are few things as wholesome as your channel. There's also something about Tracey that I find really watchable. I think it's her mannerisms, she is just so Mumsy and sweet, and how is her hair always so fresh? Can I ask are you from Essex? You guys kind of remind me of people I used to know.
The contemporary has always felt like the weirdest resort to me cause it's one of those where it feels like it's for people who want to be on disney property but without disney theming???
ps - what's your favourite dvc resort? So far we've stayed at Poly, AKL, Saratoga and GF. I was thinking of staying at Baylake tower next but I don't know, you're making me change my mind a bit lol
Understand why Bay Lake/Contemporary is not your vibe. It’s our vibe and our fav because, love the mid century modern design and decor, love the monorail station at the resort to connect on to the Poli, GF and MK. And easy monorail transfer to Epcot. And love being able to walk to the MK. We always stay at a Bay Lake tower room or Garden Wing room. Both are quieter than main Contemporary building. Sorry Keith. We did join the Contemporary cult. The brain washing mind control sessions weren’t too taxing. You got a free drink coupon after. 😂😂 ❤ to you lovely Cheers Ears!! ❤️🌈
I agree!! What is it with people liking joffreys? I don't think it's very good either. Although, starbucks coffee is also bad and people love that too. Sounds like you changed your mind though lol.... Maybe I should buy it over there! :)
Yeah overall I'm not a joffreys fan but I do really like the Starbucks though. Mainly because they serve filter coffee which they.dont really do over here
Hey, watched all your videos! Big fan! Disney is awsome, cruise ship also! I live Orlando! If do a cruise do an adult cruisareDont do disney for great experience ! Your kids are grown, don't do a Disney cruise!
Enjoy watching your vlogs - don't think I'd stay in this resort though - looks quite bland and I'm thinking if you pay to stay in a Disney resort then you want some theming and atmosphere like Key west, Saratoga, Polynesian, All stars etc, I guess its fine if you are on a paid for conference trip! 😀

When you were walking around the Contemporary, I said it looks like the Barbican Centre about 5 minutes before you said it. 😂

I’ve somehow missed most of this series and have lots of catching up to do! Lovely vlog, as always 😊

My mate Danny has done that and said it was awesome. Would love to give it a go
In a few months that room will look totally different. Can't wait for the refurb to be completed.

I’ve never walked around that area of the contemporary resort, it looks so nice! (though I do understand the cult vibes haha)
We’ve planned with grandchildren. lol.
Good vlog but I think Disney missed a trick not putting a coffee shop in the bay lake tower
Those look like carob pods😊
Joffreys way better than Starbucks. Plus contempary is amazing
We have different ideas of what makes a “spacious” room, Keith!
