I just saw on a DVC thread that someone reported they had wall dispensers in a YC bathroom. Has anyone seen this or heard reports? I inquired about when and the room type/category.
Does anyone know if they are still doing crafts/ceramics at seaside retreat (used to be sandcastle club). My daughter looks forward to that every year and I don’t see anything listed so was wondering.
An update to my post yesterday, I call Salon Services this morning and the the CM I spoke with said that Ship Shape is closed M-F THIS WEEK and is supposed to reopen Saturday, Sunday at the absolute latest. She said that it on schedule. So, my reservation for Sunday is valid. Yay!!

I obviously didn't read through this entire thread so apologies if this is being discussed already but we are DVC and are very concerned about one of the biggest perks - walking at RD to the IG entrance of Epcot - being negated with the opening of the Gondolas in late September. Is anyone else worried about this and has anyone heard anything about ways to handle the soon-to-be large crowds there at RD?
We did the exact same thing! We are at the YC August 16-18, with the AP preview 9-1 on the 17th! I did make 3 FPs at the MK on the 16th and 2 at DHS for after the preview; and an ADR at Skippers Canteen Friday night and LeCellier sat night, and we booked plane fare. We spent more on plane fare than I would have liked, when it came down to it we just couldn’t book Frontier and spent quite a bit more to go United . I’m excited, we’re telling the kids this weekend!Thanks to SWGE AP previews, we are now returning to WDW in just 2 weeks (we were at AKL through July 28). Booked YC August 16 - 18. We just really love it there and it's pretty convenient to DHS.
I literally have no FPs, no ADRs, no plane tickets yet. It's a super quick, last minute trip for sure, but feels like a happy, little bonus.
LOL, I can totally relate. The Frontier prices are very tempting ($44 pp each way!). But, it puts us too late on the 16th and makes us leave too early on the 18th, so I think we’ll have to take a pass too.We did the exact same thing!

In our case Frontier got us there earlier on the 16th and left a touch later on the 18th, but getting there earlier wouldn’t necessarily be good. We are doing MNSSHP on the 16th, and if we had to get up at 2 am for a flight, went to the party, and got up early enough to get to the preview early I don’t know if anyone would be able to make it! Even I don’t want to do that! But our biggest concern was the fact that of the frontier flight was cancelled I think the weekend would have been off, since it isn’t like they have other flights to put the entire plane on. I know it isn’t likely, and I only read the horror stories and not all of the good ones, but I’ve read enough about the ultra low cost airlines to be spooked and to avoid them until absolutely necessary at some point for some reason!LOL, I can totally relate.

Not all rooms at the YC and BC have the day bed. Some do, some don’t - I don’t know a percentage. You can request one, but not book one. I have read they give parties of 5 priority on the daybeds, otherwise it’s chance and request. You could check to see if they have a room they could move you to, either tonight or a room change tomorrow.We are here now in a garden view room with 2 queen beds. I thought all the rooms had a sofa that converted to a daybed. Ours does not, which really doesn’t work for us. Am I imagining that most of the rooms have daybeds? Our rooms at the Poly and Contemporary both did so maybe I’m thinking of those instead. I hope not though.
We stayed in a regular room 2 weeks ago and no wall dispensers. We had the regular tubes of shampoo/conditioner/body wash.We just got back last week and did not have a wall dispenser in our bathroom.
Edited to add - we stayed in a club level room.
