We are a family of 3 and have a 4 will be 5 year old son for our trip to DisneyWorld this THanksgiving. We have a 2 bedroom unit booked for 9 days.

We wanted to make a location request for this trip. In order of priority we are looking for:

1)Remodeled
2)Views
3)Proximity to Pools and Activities
4)Ease of Parking

Any suggestions would be appreciated

We are here now at our first trip to Seaworld. We are in Hamilton, right next to the club house/pool. I can't comment on the remodelling but the unit we have (1bd+lo) seems very nice. It looks exactly like the publicity photos. For proximity to pools and activities, Hamilton is hard to beat. We're about 150' from the pool. And even though we are on the ground floor, we can see the firework from Seaworld. However, the big drawback is that everyone can clearly hear the clock tower going off in the morning. We're still on California time so between the extremely NOT light proof blinds and the "donging" of the clock tower, everyone is waking up tired. But we're going on our fourth day (out of 10) and are getting used to it. As for parking, I've walked around in the morning and toward the end (Smith's), cars are parked in unmarked spaces! We've been coming back later including checking in at 12:30AM and there are always a few spaces left in lot in front of Hamilton next to the club house.

Good luck.

We likewise will be checking in next Friday. Can you tell if the new building (closest to SeaWorld itself) is open at this point.

Thanks

we were there in march . the remodeled buildings are # 6 and 7

walking to the pool was short and easy. They hav e pizza hut express in the deli, and the resteraunt at the pool is worth eating at as well. so far hgvc seaworld is our favorite orlando resort

parking was easy. we had ground floor so dont know about views.

I see lights from some of the units and cars are parked in front so it should be open. The front desk said the building opened last month.

I will be checking in there next Sunday. Can I request at check in where I want, or should I call a club counselor this week to request close to the pool or a remodeled room. Its not a major deal if I don't get any of it, but it wouldn't hurt to be close to everything either.
