Hi all. We are considering a Club level room at AKL for our next trip. The Disney site indicates that all the Standard Club level rooms are Arusha view. Is this correct?
Also, did I read where the rooms are on 1 floor but the lounge is on another?
You are correct about the Arusha View (as long as you are staying CL on AKL and not DVC, if DVC then it can be a pool view.
And yes, the lounge is on the 6th floor while the rooms are on the 4th floor.
Those deluxe CL are sooooo nice! GREAT CHOICE!
I've never stayed in the Deluxe CL rooms. We basically felt like we one the lotto last year when we were upgraded to a 2 bdrm Suite @ BWI when the Garden Suites were changed from a max occup. Of 4 to 2.
The room definitely looks spacious. The only thing is that my DD15 wanted a separate room because my DH snores-lol!!!
Can't really blame her!
So do the 2king YC CL GV rooms have a pullout bed/or daybed/or pullout chair to accommodate 3 guests? (2parents, 1child?)
Those rooms are lovely. Your DD would also have the option of sleeping in the fold out sofa bed in the living room. There isn't a divide, but the room is quite long. She'd be a distance away from the queen beds. Two TV's, lots of room, and a beautiful view of Crescent Lake. Great choice!
Just booked a split stay YC and then GF CL sugarloaf!!! Can you tell I'm excited???!!!
My family and I have never even stepped foot in GF....So this is so exciting!!!!
Can I have a glass of champagne now, please?!?
If you want a King request it. There is no difference in the rooms at all - the face the gazebo the one is the other view. All 5 have own balcony. If that is your only request go for it!!! If you need a daybed make that a priority request over the King but heck all things being equal request what you want. All close to lounge, all have full balcony, etc.
Not sure how I feel about the floor difference. Anyone care to comment if that's a PITA to go back and forth? We like to take stuff back to our room for later, for instance.

When we stayed BC SV CL last fall we considered ourselves very lucky because we were close to the lounge. We are staying YC SV CL in 2 weeks........ I requested closest to lounge and was wondering if those SV rooms are pretty close as well. I really would love GV but there are 5 of us.
Thanks!
We haven't tried CL at AKL and the rooms being on a different floor from the lounge is somewhat a concern of mine as well, but I have read so many great things about CL there that having the lounge on a different floor has never really been an issue for most people. We are hoping to try CL on our next trip as we've had 2 great stays at AKL and just love the resort .

How exciting!! You are going to love the GF. We haven't stayed at the YC, but we love the GF .
I think all the SV rooms are down the hallway from the lounge on the left hand side. So you could be really close, or a bit further away if you're all the way down the hall. Being close to the lounge is great, but if you're the first or second room you'll be across from the castmember kitchen area where they prep all the lounge food. It's a bit chaotic there. Best to be about 4 rooms down.
Good to know!!!
Okay, another question. My 2 girlfriends and I are doing the Disney half marathon next feb. Would you choose YC Deluxe CL or BW deluxe CL. Or just YC CL GV. It will be three adults. Thanks
We just came from a 8 night stay at the CR CL....we were upgraded from a regular room to CL for free upon check in ( I don't know how this happened) needless to say we are hooked now and just booked CR CL for Feb. 2015 .... We had nothing but amazing service and Paula was AMAZING!!! We had 2 infants with us and they supplied us with 8 milk cartons a day and an endless supply of goldfish, fruit boxes and gummy bears for our 3 year old. It was nice to get out of the room and walk around a bit in the lounge. Sorry for anyone who ran into rude workers, everyone was super nice to us. Our room actually wasn't ready until 5pm the first night because the family in our room before us didn't leave until 2 o clock....so they surprised us with a HUGE disney world tote bag full of disney world goodies...it was such a great gesture. We stayed on the Theme Park view and loved watching the boat parade and wishes from our room in our jammies...so we had to book theme park view again...needless to say we are HOOKED! haha
Yep! We were upgraded in June 2011 at CR. Since then I have tried Cr again, Poly GV and TPV CL and GF sl twice and RPC once. Have my 3rd Poly cl coming up soon with DD for a mom and me
