This is a hard one. Keep in mind everybody has different tastes. My best buddy at the Y&B loves the new YC rooms. She loves blues. Also keep in mind all the rooms at both the Yacht and Beach are very different as far as layouts. Some have chest of drawers, some have daybeds, some have easy chairs. So you might like another layout in another room better at the YC. Personally (and remember, this is my opinion ... my best buddy likes the new YC rooms better), I prefer the new rooms at the BC. I'm a brown/tan person as far as colors. I prefer the whole BC much better than the YC. When I have to work the lobby of the YC instead of the BC, I get a tad "down" ... I call the YC side the "dark side". I'm more a sunny yellow, tan, peach color person, therefore I'm in love with the BC!! To be totally honest, I preferred the old rooms at both the BC and the YC as far as the bedspreads, curtains, carpets, colors, etc. I would have liked to see them just redo them the way they were - all new but the same. However, I'm in the minority. I'd love to hear other disers' opinions on this. But 99% of the people I talk to in the lobby at the BC love the new BC rooms better than the old ones. I would imagine the same will be true at the YC once guests start getting into the new rooms. The pictures don't really do any of the rooms justice. If I were you, I'd definitely stay at either the BC or the YC. Stormalong Bay and our activities (see my earlier post) can't be matched at the BWI!! You could always switch back to the BC because the rooms were rehabbed last year so are still very "new" and maybe those colors would appeal to you more. I know there are pictures posted somewhere of those rooms too. I think DD9 would probably like the BC side better. Again, just my opinion!! Disers, please help here too!! We have some disers here that know the YC and BC as well as Magical One and I do!! Hopefully they can give you their personal opinions and you can make a good choice. Hope this helped.
I loved the BC rooms - I think the darker headboards make for a little nicer contrast with the white walls. Totally agree with Teena about the BC lobby compared to YC; it's brighter and more appealing. I think the pics of the new YC club rooms look very nice, especially the daybed. I think they could use a strip of color on the beds like the little runner they have on the beds at BC. I don't think anyone could be unhappy with a refurbished room of any kind in the long run, and having taken a walk over to the BW, the pool over there just doesn't compare to SAB.
