I'm teetering on a 3-night stay in December, in a studio room in either Beach Club Villas or Kidani. We're not DVC, just paying cash through the Disney website, and have never stayed at these villas (but we have stayed at Y&BC and AKL, and think both are just great).
We're leaning BCV because it's walking distance to 2 parks, and we figured that there might be more things to do at night (restaurants, shops, bars) between Y&BC and Boardwalk. But, we're not sure what's open or what to expect! If anyone has an opinion or answers to our key questions below, I'd really appreciate the help deciding!
Key questions
- Are friendship boats running to Hollywood Studios?
- Are most (or all) restaurants open at Y&BC and Boardwalk, and any idea of what time everything shuts down at night?
- What's the restaurant situation at AKL and Kidani?
- Is Stormalong Bay the same system as always (scan your magic band/room key), or are there more restrictions?
