    Okay, I had to limit it to ONE choice I picked BWV... VWL is our home resort.

    Unfortunately, I bought our points a year too late to get BWV as our home resort!

    OK, our home resport is SSR, but I prefer staying at VWL. It always feels special staying there, a more relaxed, slower and scenic enviroment. When we buy more points they are definately going to be at VWL.

    It's really a tough choice... I mean it! We love the theme and ambience of the VWL. We love the atmosphere and accomodations at OKW. BWV are the sentimental favorite for us with a superb location. But I chose the BCV - it has, above all others, the best location of DVC! And SAB...

    I could choose several of them, but the BCV seem to win out. Not really a bad choice here!

    Default What a quandary!

    We actually have two "home" resorts, Saratoga Springs and Animal Kingdom.

    But our REAL favorite is Vero Beach!

    And a very close second would be Old Key West.

    I suspect that once the Animal Kingdom Villas come available, our on-property favorite will change.

    But Vero Beach still wins in our opinion.

    This is a very tough pick! We have stayed at all of the resorts ar WDW and each has its own place in our top list. They each rank first for one thing or another! And depending on what we are there for! Picked Boardwalk since that was the original resort to stay at and our original Home Resort!!

    In 2003 we became members at BCV, but we have never stayed there. We love OKW-the space and privacy can't be beat! We just bought additional points at AKV, and I have no doubt that it will be our favorite once completed. We love AKL and if we're not at OKW, we're there. I know AKV will be our favorite and we'll likely spend all our vacations there. We can't wait!

    More trips than I can list, DVC Members since 2003.

    VWL is our favorite in regard to theme, but BCV definitley has the edge in location and pool.

    Thumbs up

    We enjoy our home resort SSR, it's a nice quiet escape from the parks. We stay at SSR on more than half of our trips.

    Our home resort is SSR - but I love the theming at VWL. It just seems cozier to me. That said, I also LOVE BWV and I am staying at BCV for the 1st time in a just a couple of weeks

    I always pick the Beach Club because of the pool. I really like the BWV too - but staying at the BC gives you the best of both worlds.

    Haven't stayed at my home resort yet.......

    BWV was great especially since our room overlooked the BW and SSE. But our favorite is our home resort VWL...hands down! We love the theming, the quietness, and everything else associated with it!

    Hands down, I go along with the Villas at Wilderness Lodge. This has been our home since 2001. Have stayed at OKW, BWV,and Saratoga Springs. Looking forward to having a stay at Animal Kingdom Villas when available.

    For quietness, theme function and availability to everything, the VWL beats all in my book.

    SSR i sthe best IMO!!

    If the BC is so great why is everyone selling their DVC? I look at all the resale sites and that is mostly what I see for sale. Hmm...All I know is I'll be enjoying SSR for 12 years after BC comes due lol.

    I love the convenience of BWV although our home resort is SSR, our first trip there is coming up. I loved OKW but it isn't the most convenient location and the buses were slow when we were there but it's been a long time.

    I love the relaxed and casual island atmosphere at Old Key West. Beach Club Villas run a close second.

    Default Beach Club wins out

    Beach Club wins out due to Location, walking distance to Epcot and Boardwalk, fishing, the pool and Cape May make it a very good destination. I also give props to Wilderness Lodge, because its definitely good for non-park activities and quiet time.
