    Default WHich studio? BWV or AK?

    We will be renting points for our September trip/ It will be my husband and I, DD7 years, and DD4 years and DS 1.5 in a portacrib. Which studio would you suggest. AK or BWV and why? (And we can't afford a 1 bedroom, so I do know it will be tight either way...)

    Of those 2, I would suggest BWV because of location. AK is way out there while BWV is a within a walk to Epcot and a longer walk to Hollywood Studios. But, OKW has much larger rooms and is a short boat ride to Downtown Disney.

    I agree, BWV is a better location. Also DD14 finds the pull out beds at BWV better than AKL. We've stayed at Jambo and Kidani.

    You can't go wrong with either. We own at both and like them both. I am one who does not believe that AKV is far away from anything. It just feels like you get away from everything. I would go with whichever one you like. You can't go wrong with those 2.

    We just stayed at AKL - Kidani a few weeks ago and loved it. There was 4 of us in the room and it was a little crowded but it was lots of fun. Lots of people say it's so far out but the bus ride didn't seem any worse then many of the other resorts. My 2 daughters 5 and 3 really enjoyed the animals and the pool which was outstanding. We would stay here again.

    thanks, we are already booked at the BWV which we grabbed at the 11 month mark, but I think we will ask the person we are renting from to make the switch to AKV at the 7 month mark if there is availability. We are used to staying at the POP ... so we are accustomed to the bus rides.
