Home resort, we have been going to WL since 2012. Renos for BRV in 2022 are great. Rooms are themed perfectly. The location is serene. Pool is a great spot to chill out after putting on the miles at the parks and not usually very busy. We love the train room and the cozy cottage feeling. It’s our favourite resort.

Beautiful…. thank you 🙏

This is beautiful I now see why so many want to stay here

Thank you for sharing … what a great way to celebrate your anniversary!

Really great DVC room tour …. they are massive …. thank you

If you have ever stayed at Boulder Ridge Villas, let us know in the comments what you think of the resort and of your DVC room.

Wish you would show us the logo close up.

Seriously? Because we are Seniors we should expect freebies or special treatment? Suddenly, we are on the same plane as entitled millennials and Gen Z’s? It appears that a few of you need to drink a glass of warm milk, put on your Depends and go to sleep

Disney doesn’t need to do anything for seniors. We’re already still paying for Disney trips with our kids and grandkids!! 😂

When I was in my 40’s and 50’s I could stand in there long ride lines. Now that I’m in my 60’s my body can no longer tolerate the standing. My wife and I really looked forward to taking our grand children but I know in my heart Disney will get worse and we will never go again.

you want a better disney park? then go to the ONLY "disney park" not OWNED by disney! Tokyo disneyland is cheaper and better even after flying 5000 extra miles....yes that is right all that time flying will save you MONEY! look it up there tickets are usually UNDER 100$ to get in and LOWER!

gonna tell you this FACT...disney does not care! they want to PUMP those parks for EVERY dollar to keep them from bankruptcy!

I'm at a point where sometimes I get senior discounts and sometimes I don't, depending upon the age cutoff. Sure I'll take the discount when I can, but honestly, why should seniors get so many discounts. I'd much prefer a little bit lower prices for everyone rather than special groups.

You answered your own question. Why do seniors not get discounts? Because we, as Baby Boomers, have the most disposable income. Disney must know this or they'd be giving us discounts.

We don't do a lot of character meals this day but we nearly always do this one. Fun to meet the characters but it's such a lovely place to sit for a meal (if ourside). The malasadas must be new because I remember having them last year (June 23) but did try them on Maui and they are SO GOOD. Guess we'll be going for breakfast again next trip. That bird was so cute. Don't recall ever seeing too many birds around the resort.

Disney doesn't care about its customers in general, let alone its seniors. Disney is currently trying to exploit the memories and nostalgia we provided our children by patronizing their parks and buying their products. The current CEO, Bob Iger, has publicly stated that Disney's new business model is to fleece the once-in-a-lifetime visitors as much as possible in favor of catering to those repeat customers who contributed to the success that Disney has become. Since he has squandered Disney's profits on losing propositions like Disney+, ideological movie agendas, and white washing Disney's past, he intends to prop up the struggling business with profits from the parks. As of now, Disney parks generate 30% of the company profits and 70% of its generated revenue annually. They have cut staff and maintenance to the bone. They couldn't care less about discounts for those who have spent tens of thounds of dollars over a lifetime to support them. Good luck getting them to listen to you. They didn't even listen to their single largest stock holder. We have no chance except to avoid them and encourage our children and their children to avoid them as well. Disney has gone from the happiest place on earth to the greediest.

I totally agree. My boyfriend and I have stayed at Beach Club Resort and Villa 3x and love it. It is so relaxing and peaceful. I love that we are close the Epcot. The boat to HS is convenient. We enjoy the quiet pools and Solarium. We have also turned my nephew and his wife into it. There is not rushing around. Granted the buses can be annoying with times but hey, it is to only the other 2 parks and Springs. For the longest time I used to stay at Pop Century do to the price but since we found Beach Club, we can't go back.

a queue with seats for seniors at bus stops. If there are others in their party, they could stand in the regular queue, then the seniors would join them when they are about to board the bus. OR maybe have people take a number when getting in line at bus stops and show. their number as they board the bus? That way you could ensure no line skipping.

Have senior available paper maps with meet and greet and entertainment times, and bring back the wait boards. We seniors want to enjoy our experience at the park and all the lovely details without having to be glued to our phones all day.

Yes! We were the Disney kids, the Disney teens, the Disney Adults, and now the Disney Seniors. Our love of the Disney parks has not aged, so please do not force us to age out of the parks! Remember us and treat us with the same thoughtfulness, care, and consideration you treat the parks we aged with! We were the Cast Members, the first to get married at the parks, the first to honeymoon at the parks, and we moved to Florida and California to be near the parks. Some of us were never blessed with children or grandchildren, but we still visit the parks, probably more frequently than any other demographic because we have the time and the money. Finally, the company's leaders should pay attention because most of you are now seniors too! Take one day in any of the parks to visit not as a VIP senior, but as an everyday senior and you will understand exactly what we experience, what we need to continue to visit, and what will make us still feel like part of the Disney family and not pushed aside. Thank you.

Better access for the boat rides, stepping over and down is hard to impossible for my wife (66).

I agree. I wish they would allow us to skip lines with free Lightning Lane. That would be nice, but if we are with our kids and grandkids, they would pay because they are better able to afford the extra expense. The DAS was taken away from those of us who have medical issues that make it tough to stand in lines for long periods of time. Just not fair to those of us who have physical issues with legs and feet (diabetes). Scooters are expensive to rent, even off-site. Wheelchairs, someone has to push. One senior pushing another senior is physically difficult. Most seniors do not want their children pushing the wheelchair. I feel guilty, when our son is relegated to that task.

I didn’t realize seniors were such a large group. Why is Disney not doing more for them? Senior days at the parks? Senior discounts? More seating and shade for seniors??

With Disney being a woke company and culture, I have no desire to visit this place.

This is great I’m 66 so I love these tips

I like the idea of a no-ride ticket. I cannot go on any of them anyway and just walk around and eat and shop.

I think if Disney does this the age should be 65 and over, BUT not one senior and 6 family members. I get grandkids but not a whole lot of family and friends taking advantage. For Disney Passholders from out of state, mornings and days aren't something that would be an advantage. If there is nobody disabled it should be common sense someone might use the restroom. It should not be expected to just sit open. Families should wait as that is not a disability.

Glad they've put that pool back to adults only. Will have to try it out next trip. I think the grotto pool is my fav. And of course the adult spas.

As a senior, my favorite resort is Jambo house. I once stayed at the BC but missed the Mara.

This suggestion doesn't actually apply to cost savings except if it were done I'd be able to stay longer in the parks. Two years ago when my husband and I visited, I was amazed at how few benches were in shaded areas. I had to leave every day before dark because the sun just exhausted me (and this was the second week in December!). This had never happened before, but then, I'd never been to the parks at 67 years old. We ate table service meals (no meal plan) and bought many souvenirs while we were there. If we could have stayed to closing that would have been a lot of money in Disney's pocket. Along the same lines, please add more seating in general. There really is nowhere to sit in the Star Wars area. The biggest cost savings would be if seniors got some kind of discount on resort stays, especially during the week. My husband and I are fairly flexible when we could travel and getting even a slight discount in a slow month would help (we would love to visit a couple of times a year, rather than every two or three years).

We learned that one can only truly appreciate the 18 years and older pool & hot tub when you are actually there ….. they are great for older adults and seniors

Thanks for sharing, especially using the resort map to show the locations in the resort. I like how the adults only pool is so close to everything yet secluded!

We are in the Polynesian now. Bring meds for flu. No meds anywhere if you get sick.

So pretty and tranquil …… thank you for sharing!!

That night a man ran across the projector on the far right side and brought back one of the alligators from the lion king segment

I'm just turning 62 on Monday of next week and my hubby is 65. We both work from home, mine is part-time and his is internet based. We are both transitioning into a more limited disposable income and would love to be able to have discounts for both dining and hotels for seniors. We have no issue with paying for the Annual Pass, but with the ever-changing costs of hotels on Disney property and the dining costs, it makes it more difficult for us to save up for a trip. We live in SW Florida (3.5 hours away) and would like to go more often.

Get a mobility scooter and get pissed when people are in your way...video over.

Only the Poly appeals to me unless I could get a great deal at Wilderness. My favorite resort on property is AKL but being close to Epcot is most important to me as a senior in his 70’s.

Make all hills go down. Get rid of up hills.

Having to walk so far from buses or any transportation is almost torture for those with bone on bone knee injuries. Cannot keep up with the 30 something’s physically pushing or shoving past on walkways.

I would love to have a cut after 4 PM for my father who is 70 + who loves the Epcot but doesn’t wanna behind annual pass because he says it’s too much and it doesn’t pay for him considering all he does is go to eat and people watch and kiss for the grandchildren

DAS needs to be expanded to those that may not be disabled but have limited abilities to stand in long lines. AKA me! Nerve issue in back limits time I can stand.

I wish they would bring back the non-expiring ticket option. We can't get there to justify the cost of an Annual Pass.

As you watch the video leave a comment on more ideas you have to improve seniors’ experience at Disney parks! And join the Disney For Seniors Facebook Group ❤

I missed the survey. I don't necessarily agree with an after 4 p.m. discount since it's hard for some of us to drive in the dark.

We only can HOPE Disney will listen 🤔 I wish Disney would offer the Pixie Pass to out of state seniors, that have more flex time to vist 🤔 Thanks for sharing 😃

Should be a big discount for seniors because most don’t ride that much and just go with family. Most of us need DAS.

But everybody fails to understand is.. seniors are the largest population we have and we've helped our children with their families and we're still taking grandchildren and great-grandchildren to the parks.. without us, Disney is going to lose all their younger visitors because they can't afford to go. To be honest I can't afford to go.

More seating in the shade!
