Just got back from our 1st DVC vacation with a split stay 5 nights at OKW in a HH studio location and 3 nights at AKL Kidani one bedroom savanna view. Wife, and 9 & 12 yr old daughters preferred OKW over AKL. Looks like we will be purchasing a small OKW contract to supplement our small AKL contract. Family enjoyed the laid back feeling at OKW, felt more like a second home than a room at a hotel.
Yep, when OKW was built that was the idea - the Disney Vacation Club villas were built to be "homes away from home." That's what/why we bought at BWV. Over the years (due, I believe, to rising $ prices per point and nightly point costs per villa) more and more people seem to be buying DVC hoping only to save money on hotel rooms instead of enjoying a home away from home. It's truly a difference in attitude.
