It's a free tour of the resort with some history thrown in. Only given twice a week. I can't find if it's a DVC only perkWhat is the Conch Flats Tour?
Thanks. We have used a friend’s points to stay there on the past. We are in process of buying DVC so I will keep this in mind.It's a free tour of the resort with some history thrown in. Only given twice a week. I can't find if it's a DVC only perk
There are posted hours for the pools, however, during our last trip I heard rumors about how the hours were 24/7 as well. We were swimming well beyond 11 PM some nights. It seems to be as long as you're not too loud they dont seem to enforce the hours too strictly.No, the pools have posted hours. Usually around 11pm.
I don't think it is limited to DVC members. It has been on my to do list, but I just haven't gotten to it, yet.It's a free tour of the resort with some history thrown in. Only given twice a week. I can't find if it's a DVC only perk
Posted hours are the hours the pool is officially open for swimming. They are not 24/7. However, if people swim in the pool quietly and no one complains, they might not be removed from the pool by security.There are posted hours for the pools, however, during our last trip I heard rumors about how the hours were 24/7 as well.

Thanks for the info! I'm thinking this is a great way to spend time at the resortWe did the tour at Christmas and it was for anyone who wanted to come
The window is up high, oval, does not open and a person would need a ladder to look in. I can’t remember if it’s frosted. There is no need to be worried about it.Weird question.. the new rooms look really nice and while I love sunlight, I'm a little unsure of the window in the bathroom of the studios. Is it densely frosted, or what's the deal?
The one I'm referring to is a large square one over the toilet in the studio rooms.The window is up high, oval, does not open and a person would need a ladder to look in. I can’t remember if it’s frosted. There is no need to be worried about it.
Thanks. Not trying to come across as overly paranoid. I once had a home with a window in the shower, which we covered with a frosted stained glass material. It's just hard to tell from the pictures, what that particular window is like.The window is much smaller and higher than you think it is, and yes, there is a frosted pattern to it. If there was any possibility of seeing anything through it, it would've been noticed 25 years ago and fixed.
I have now watched a couple of videos of OKW room tours. I see the square window you are talking about. I remember having an oval or round window in the bathroom. I remember the street lights shining in the room from it. It had no shade so I just shut the door at night. I could be remembering wrong I guessThe one I'm referring to is a large square one over the toilet in the studio rooms.
I don't think you are remembering wrong. I saw some exterior photos that showed square and oval windows. Probably just depends on the type of room.I have now watched a couple of videos of OKW room tours. I see the square window you are talking about.

The peephole in the studio door also bothers me so I put a bandaid over it
I have only stayed in studios at OKW. They probably put one on one building and the other on a different building. I looked at 3-4 videos online and they all had square windows. I was starting to doubt myself.I don't think you are remembering wrong. I saw some exterior photos that showed square and oval windows. Probably just depends on the type of room.
I was just in a 1BR earlier this month, and no individual toiletries (other than bars of soap) were in the unit. I imagine I could have requested some, but we didn't need them.One bedroom and larger units still receive some of the individual toiletries for use in the Jacuzzi tub, at least they did in December. The showers all have the wall mounted dispensers.
