Normally only the Bungalows at Polynesian and the Cabins at WL have these amenities on the DVC side.Sounds like it is only in certain rooms then.
Thanks - learn something new every day here on DIS boards!Normally only the Bungalows at Polynesian and the Cabins at WL have these amenities on the DVC side.

No surey bike rentals at this time.Does anyone know if surrey bike rentals are still happening, and if so what the hours are?
Yes, you can still do room requests. You can call and they will add a note to your reservation or you can still fax it I believe. I am a Touring plan member so I make my requests through there. They always seem to work.Is sending room requests in advance of your stay still something that's being done? My last WDW stay was in Jan 2018. So much is different now + I've never stayed DVC, so that's new too.
Oh and I should add, I believe if you booked your DVC room through disney, they will accommodate the requests, I cannot speak to accommodating requests on rented points, that may very well be handled differently.Is sending room requests in advance of your stay still something that's being done?

Only food options last week when we were there was Pizza window, bakery and pool bar. Also to add that the bakery had a limited menu as well. That was our biggest issue this trip. Especially not being able to hop to epcot to grab some food.Anyone know if boardwalk to go is open( not the pizza window) looking for food options at the hotel this trip and things are looking pretty scarce!
THIS is exactly why we're gonna be cancelling our December BWI reservation. We're big on wandering to Epcot at a drop of a hat for meal replacements. Hoping things change by next December. Waiting patiently for late 2021 reservations to open up.Only food options last week when we were there was Pizza window, bakery and pool bar. Also to add that the bakery had a limited menu as well.

They could be staying at the DVC villas. They are still open. Our family has a November trip booked for the Villas at Beach Club!Boardwalk Inn this December? From the Disney website: "While reopening dates were previously shared for Disney’s Beach Club Resort and Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, these Disney Resort hotels will remain closed until further notice, as the reopening timeline continues to be reevaluated."

Yes, BWI. We have a paid reservation and yes, the hotel isn't open. I'm waiting to be contacted by Disney. My response was simply to add that even IF the hotel were open, we still won't go. As long as the park reservation system is in place, as AP holders with no park hopping allowed, we're staying home.Boardwalk Inn this December?

We have AP too, and while no park hopping is a bummer - it's still a lot of fun to enjoy the little stuff around the resort/parks. Hopefully you guys get to return sooner than you think! I'm looking forward to actually enjoying the pool this next trip. We never make time for Stormalong Bay, but now we might actually be able to fit it in! lolYes, BWI.

Yes, the YC rooms and the pool are super nice. We're under water with the AP at this point, we usually get two trips a year but this year? Nope...lost May and are gonna lose December. There is just too much missing. We're OK with waiting until next December. Certainly hoping things will be almost back to what used to be normal. I am loving everyone sharing their trips online. Certainly helps. Hey, try renting a cabana at the YC, it's a great indulgent experience.We have AP too, and while no park hopping is a bummer - it's still a lot of fun to enjoy the little stuff around the resort/parks.

Requests are never guaranteed. Even if you paid cash for a DVC villa. You are booked into a room by the same Room Scheduler.Oh and I should add, I believe if you booked your DVC room through disney, they will accommodate the requests, I cannot speak to accommodating requests on rented points, that may very well be handled differently.
