One of the most frequently asked questions is "What should I request" so here a a few tips:
First, here is the layout (a few years old, the beach entry walk has been changed).

Ocean View Inn Room (OVIR)
These are all in the Main Inn building. There are four floors and typically the higher the better for views. It is possible to get an OVIR on either end of the building where you have an ocean view off to the side. So you want to request and ocean FACING room.
I request the 4th floor first and then the second floor because you can take the lobby staircase to and from the 1st floor. Sometimes waiting for the elevator is frustrating and it is nice to have an easy alternate route.
Villa Building Rooms
There are 3 Villa buildings (12, 14, & 15). 12 is on the north end of the resort, and 15 is on the south end of the resort. These two buildings have fewer view obstructions of the ocean. They are "U" shaped buildings and each floor has two "Dedicated" 2 bdrm units and four "Lock-Off" 2 bdrm units. The Lock-Off units are also the 1 bdrm and studio units when locked off from each other. You will notice below that the dedicated units (in blue) are at the end of the "U" and further away from the ocean with very limited likelyhood of viewing the ocean. The Villa buildings are 3 stories and getting the 3rd floor is pretty critical in having an ocean view. Building 14 has many more obstructions than the others.
Layout provided by Lisareniff

I prefer to make my request through the DVC site and member services. Give them your name and reservation number, and your request.
https://dvc.disney.go.com/dvc/member/contact/contactMemberServices?id=ContactMemberServicesPage Not sure you can get to this page if you are not logged in.
They have been very (timely) responsive and email you back, so you have a written response you can refer to. Remember... A request is just that and not a guarantee.

Code:
[/COLOR]
How many rooms does VB have?
VB has 18 dedicated 2 BR's; 36 Lockoffs (each of which can be divided
into a studio and a 1BR); 6 3BR Beach Cottages; and 112 Inn rooms.
How do I get to Vero Beach?
Do you have to be a DVC member to stay there?
No you do not. You can make a reservation through a travel agent or by
calling the resort.
What is rack rate for the resort?

What is the difference between an Inn Room and a Studio?
With an Inn room you'll get 2 queen beds and it is about 360 sq ft. You also
will have a small frig, wet bar, and microwave. Select corner Inn rooms are
slightly larger and L-shaped. So as you enter the room through the door, you
see a narrow walk space and the kitchenette is right there. As you turn the corner,
you have the main space with the beds.
A studio is about 375 sq ft and also has a frig, wet bar and microwave. The
difference is you will get one queen bed and one double sleeper sofa. So if
only two people are staying in the room and sharing the bed, you can keep
the sofa closed and allows more floor space. The Vero Beach studio room is
the same shape as the OKW studio so the floor space is optimized in my opinion.
Studios (particularily ground and 2st floor), don't offer much of a view. There
is a lot of very lush tropical foilage surrounding the ground floor studio and
larger villas. Ocean View Inn rooms are a reservation option.
What does availiability typically look like?
Peak season at South Florida beaches is in the Spring, with March and April
(Spring Break) being the most popular. Summer is typically not as difficult to
reserve as Spring is. By calling at 7 months, you can likely get any week you
want. I've had luck getting summer time calling only a few months prior.
What is the beach like?
The beach is on the "wild" side, with lots of waves and a pretty sharp drop off.
Children should be closely supervised.
Rob describes it here:
"It is not a big beach, but it is never crowded so size, in this case, doesn't matter.
Vero beach is an ocean playground. The waves on most days are formiddable and
great for boogie or surf boarding.
The sand is brown and coarse, and gets hot in the summer. For me the hot sand is
a sensory awakening and I find myself thinking... "yes, I really am here... ouch,
damn that's hot... ow, ow, ow".
I love the ocean waves. VB receives the gulf stream flow so the water temps are
pretty steady for much of the year. I like to think that sharks don't like waves and
stay out further than I venture. I have never seen a shark at VB, but PamOKW
posted a story about a shark bite incident at VB in 2006. Thanks, Pam.
Jelly Fish? Hah.... VB has PORTUGESE MAN-O-WAR! Actually, I have been to
VB almost all the months from March to November and only once have I
encountered these slimey creatures of pain. Yes, I was stung. Not too bad though...
just felt like a thousand bee stings.
There is never a problem finding a spot to set up beach camp at VB.
One real nice thing about the beach is the proximity to the Pool bar & grill, and
your room. So If you have hankering for a Margarita or a hamburger, OR nature
is suddenly calling (#2, you can do #1 in the ocean), your remedy is very close by.
We typically will set up early in the morning and go back and forth between the
pool, the room, and the beach throughout the day.
The beach doesn't have much in the way of shelling, but it does have turtle nests."
Is there a lifeguard on duty?
There are lifeguards at the pool at peak times, but not on the beach.
Is there internet service at the resort?
Yes. They currently have free wireless throughout the resort.
What TV stations do they have in the rooms? (provided by Melynny)
WXEL ,WTVX, WPTV, ION, WFLX, WPBF, WTCE, WPEC, BRRMGC, UNIVISON,

What dining options exist at the resort?
To be updated Jan 2017
Please Note: The DDP is NOT accepted at VB but the TIW card is.

Does the resort do anything special for holidays?
4th of July is pretty cool. For a while, there were fireworks in Orchid just
North of the resort. They were fantastic. There are also fireworks in
Sebastian which you can watch from A1A.
VB throws a pool-party on New Year's Eve complete with party hats,
noise-makers, live DJ, and guest appearances by the likes of Goofy,
Chip, and Dale. There are family activities, dancing, and the night
ends with the "Pool Drop" where at the stroke of midnight, everyone
who wants to, jumps into the pool.
The resort always does something for most holidays. We really enjoy
Halloween at the resort. They have costume contests, pumpkin carving
contests, trick or treating, etc.
What are my dining/grocery options outside of the resort?
Orchid Island Pizzeria right next to DVBR on the corner of A1A and 510.
They serve a thin crust style pizzia with choice of lots of toppings, pasta
dinners, and hot and cold subs. They will also deliver to the lobby of the
resort. 772-388-5151 .
The closest shopping is a short distance away. Go North from the resort
to the 1st light and turn left onto CR- 510. Go 2.7 miles and Walgreens
will be on your left at the intersection of US-1. If you want to go to Publix
(groceries), make a right turn on US1 and Publix will be 1.6 miles ahead on
your left. As you head to Publix, on your right will be Hale Indian River Fruit
Stand. Try their fresh-squeezed orange juice...yummy!
There is commercial strip in Vero Beach about 11 miles/20 min away.
Includes just about everything you can think of - Super Walmart, Sams Club,
Home Depot, Lowes, Best Buy, Circuit City, Sears, - complete mall. Plenty
of places to spend money! The outlet malls are a few more miles past that
out to the west.
There is also a Super Walmart in Sebastian approx 9 miles to the north,
along with some smaller strip malls - Publix etc. Sebastian is a smaller city,
home of Pelican Island, Capt Hirams restaurant and bar (think tables in the sand),
Squid Lips restaurant. -

What are NoSeeUms and how do I deter them?
No-See-Ums are tiny insects, closely related to the mosquito, officially
called Biting Midges. They only fly in temperatures over 70 degress, so
they are more of a problem during summer months. They are most active
during sunrise/sunset, so it is recommended that you keep your patio
doors closed during these times. Common insect repellants (DEET) do
not deter No-See-Ums. The best way to avoid them is to wear long
pants/sleeves at sunrise and sunset. Products such as Cutter Advanced
and Cactus Juice have been recommended by many VB veterans.
How can I see sea turtles?
Sea turtle nesting and hatching season runs May-October. Most of the turtle
nesting takes place from June-August, and hatchlings emerge about 60 days
after the nest is made. There are a number of night-time walks organized that
allow small numbers of the public to view the nesting phase, but the hatchling
phase is far too dangerous to view and there are no legal public walks to
view hatchlings. If you would like to see a hatchling, there are morning
"Turtle Troops" at the resort three times a week where the naturalist takes
you to look at the nests. Once hatchlings begin emerging, it is not uncommon
for there to be hatchlings that did not make it left behind, and you may get a
chance to see one of those.
If you are at Vero during nesting, there are various places to arrange for a
turtle walk. First, the resort offers a turtle walk lottery on Wednesdays and
Thursdays. Guests can place their room keys in a lottery at 10am, and enough
keys are drawn to fill 20 slots on the tour. There is no charge, but space is very
limited and the walk takes place on the beach @ the resort where there is about
a 50% chance that you will see a turtle.
On Tuesdays, the Caribbean Conservation Corporation hosts a free turtle walk
through Sebastian Inlet State Park. (321-985-4852) You must reserve a spot
ahead of time, and a total of 20 people are allowed on the beach. This takes
place in the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, a few miles down from
Disney's Vero Beach Resort and has a 80% success rate for finding and viewing turtles.
The Caribbean Conservation Corporation also sponsors an "Adopt-A-Turtle"
program on Monday nights. There is a charge for this (I believe it is 20$ plus
10$ for each additional person in the group). This also takes place in the
Archie Carr Refuge and you must make reservations. Contact number is 1-800-678-7853.
I personally recommend one of the CCC walks, since you can make
reservations ahead of time and have a much higher chance of seeing a turtle nesting.

What sort of other ameneties are offered at Vero Beach?
Anchors A Weigh Fitness Center, Rub Dub's Massage, Blinker's Arcade,
Nightly Live Music in the Green cabin Room, Hair Beading and Hair Wraps,
Valet, Video Rentals, BBQ Grills, Steamer's Sauna
Why are Vero Beach points cheaper than other resorts on the resale market?
Should I just buy there to save money?
The most expensive annual dues make VB one of the most expenive locations to
own over the long term. Mbhoxie breaks it down here:
"VB points tend to be cheaper for a number of reasons...
1. Dues are higher there than any other resort... Partially due to the remote
location, and partially due to the fact that the place has been smacked by two
hurricanes and is heavily insured.
2. To some, the resort is in a fairly remote location, not known traditionally
known as a resort/timeshare area.. You have to either drive or rent a car to
get there. The surrounding towns have some activities but its not setup as a
tourist area... Some people buy in with the expectaton of being entertained
like they are at the parks... Not going to happen.
Bottom line.. NEVER buy points at a place that you don't intend to stay at...
Bad business, and it will be stressful."
What's the address/phone number for the resort?
Disney's Vero Beach Resort (a DVC resort)
9250 Island Grove Ter
Vero Beach, FL 32963
(772) 234-2000

Resort - Basics
Rooms
VB has 18 dedicated 2 BR's; 36 Lockoffs (each of which can be divided
into a studio and a 1BR); 6 3BR Beach Cottages; and 112 Inn rooms.
The Inn rooms designated as Garden View (vegetation and parking views)
and Ocean View. (If you know how many Inn roms are in each category
please let me know)
There are a total of 10 buildings with rooms. The 6 3BR Beach Cottages,
the Inn, and 3 other buildings, each containing 6 dedicated 2BRs,
and 12 Lockoffs. The studios are part of a lockoff and are in these 3 buildings.
VB is a very small resort. Everything is a very, very easy walk.
Parking
There is under-building parking under the Inn and the 3 buildings with
the 2BRs and lockoffs. There are small parking lots next to the buildings.
There is not parking next to the 3BR Beach Cottages but there is adequate
Parking in the other locations. Overflow parking is available across
Highway A1A which is connected to the resort via an underground
Passage.
Transportation
Many folks ask if Disney provides transportation, like the Disney Magic
Express. The answer is no.
You can arrange transportation using one of the VB transportation companies
but you will probably find it to be very expensive. Aditionally, the resort
is very small and almost everybody wants to go see some of the sights
or go to off-site restaurants. For these reasons everybody recommends
having a car. OK, I suppose there is someone out there who doesnt!
Most folks fly into Orlando (95 miles). Other options are North
Palm Beach (81 miles), Sanford (114 miles), Fort Lauderdale (130 miles).
Availability
Peak season at South Florida beaches is in the Spring, with March and April
(Spring Break) being the most popular. Summer is typically not as difficult to
reserve as Spring is. By calling at 7 months, you can likely get any week you
want. Although I havent been to VB over the Christmas/New Years
holidays, I assume getting a room might be tough&call right at the 7 month
timeframe. If VB is your home resort, you should not have trouble calling at
11 months.

Lets start adding names for Roll Call 2017. If you want your stay to be added please post or PM me your stay dates. Also, let me know what number stay this is for you and what type of reservation. I will put that number and info after your username. I will also try to update the info with current rates. If anyone has picture of renovated room or the new Winds and Waves please post the, my last stay was in a non renovated room and the restaurants were not updated yet. Thanks Rick
 
I read the info about the new dining areas on the 2016 thread. The porch area at Shutters sounds weird. A while back, one CM said that it was going to have high top tables and televisions. I guess that was changed. I'll have to go over there and check things out.
 
April 30 to May 6. Beach Cottage with my siblings and their spouses. Our 11th time in Vero and first time for our family. Just hoping the cottages are renovated by then.
 




Anyone with recent experience at the spa with the pedicures? Will they do Mickeys on your nails?

Thank you so much. This has been a difficult week. My mother passed Dec 29, and my brother in law passed yesterday. We have cancelled the cruise we were set to go on Friday. I need to see the ocean before heading to NJ and the funerals that will be in mid January.

We said goodbye to both dear relatives just after Christmas. Plus, we euthanized our dear Belle, 13 year old lab on Dec 21.

We are waiting for Jan. 21 to reserve a Beach Cottage for Aug. 21 - 24. Available right now, and hopefully still on 1/21.
