We LOVE OKW❤❤ We loved it so much , OKW became our second DVC home resort, after Grand Floridian and before Copper Creek, our two other home resorts. OKW is sooo relaxing! Great island vibe
That is so amazing! OKW was our first home resort and since then, we added Poly and Copper Creek! OKW is our place for slower pace trips - love everything about it! Thank you so much for watching!
I am getting older - and I just love SSR and OKW - the fact that I am that close to Springs is fantastic - instead of Springs being an afterthought in the trip, it becomes a big part of the stay. The rooms are fantastic, and I love how it really feels like your home with all the apartment-like complexes. While the staff is great at all the DVC resorts, I found everyone to be especially friendly and engaging, plus had a blast doing trivia in the pool.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I agree with everything dixielandfarm said. Staying at OKW or SSR feels like you are not staying in a hotel, but enjoying life in a polite, happy, Disney-loving community. There is just nothing else like it!
You know i have to say we love visiting. The walk from Disney Springs is very nice. We walk over and get a bite to eat and walk around the resort. The decor is very nice as well. We also love the pool. Just subscribed friends!
OKW is one of our home resorts and it's so beautiful and relaxing! We've never made the walk to our from DS, but we love the boats! Thank you so much for subscribing - we love meeting more Disney Friends!
We LOVE OKW! We've only been once but right now its actually my favorite resort. On top of the chill theming, I think the atmosphere is so friendly and relaxed because the Guests are mostly DVC Members. Everyone goes to WDW a lot so there's not that FOMO rush. The villas are beautiful and the size alone would have me go back again. I read somewhere that the resort was designed to give almost every room a water view. Our view was stunning. We used the mobile order for Oliva's and ate at "home" watching the ducks play outside. We also really loved having a quiet pool right next to our building, and the proximity of the bus stop. There's still a few resorts I'd like to try, BUT, if I had to pick one resort to stay at for the rest of my trips, it would be OKW.
Such an excellent Disney Resort video. The camera work & editing is top notch - I often get a little 'seasick' when vloggers have shaky vidoes or fast, sweeping shots. I really appreciate that you included the history of Old Key West and some facts about this lovely resort. I must admit, I am very disappointed when a Disney vlogger doesn't do the proper research before posting a video and posts wrong information that they don't correct in post-production. You had none of those issues, even your narration script was well-written. Great job all around! 👍 My first DVC stay was at the Old Key West and I fell in love with the place. We are going back in a little over a month and I have shared your video with my travel partner because I am hoping that he loves OKW as much as I do. Thank you for this informative and fun video. You earned a huge 'thumbs up' and a subscription. 👏👏👏
Thank you so much Deb! Old Key West is one of our Home Resorts and we just love it! We really tried to show what the resort is all about in hopes of helping others who want to buy or stay there. Thank you for subscribing to our little channel as well! We just do it for fun, so sometimes we don't post on a regular schedule - but we have lots of new experiences coming soon that we can't wait to share with our Disney Friends! Have a great Monday and week ahead!
Old Key West has become one of our favorite DVC resorts, as well as our newest home! You can't beat how spacious the villas are! Thank you for commenting and Happy Tuesday!
@@Scaloozy You will need to make a reservation for breakfast as well, since it's table service. You can also mobile order from Olivia's, if you want to take it back to your room. You don't need a reservation for mobile ordering! Make sure you try the French Toast!
Our ownership is at AKL and BLT, but we're excited to be coming to OKW in 53 days! It will be our first stay at OKW. We have a 2 BR villa, and wondering if you have any recommendations on room requests (which I know are not guaranteed). I'd like to be near close to the hospitality house if possible, just don't know what to ask for. Any advice?
You will love OKW! There is a special booking category option for being near the hospitality house, so make sure you choose this when you make your DVC reservation or you can also try sending a fax to the resort with that request. We usually send a fax on the Monday of the week before our stay with room request and had very good luck. The Millers Road area is pretty close to the HH and that's our favorite area. Thank you for watching and we hope y'all have a wonderful vacation!
If you are unable to book HH rooms bld 23-29 are good options as they will utilize Pennicular Rd bus stop which is first on/off for thr parks but NOT for Disney Springs. These bldg are also a super quick walk to HH which we didn't mind at all. A bit of a tip: if you want a second entrance to the master bathroom so people don't have to go through master bedroom building 30 and up have a door to the bathroom from the laundry room. This is helpful for anyone sleeping on the pull outs in the front room.
@@ruflippingkiddingme Thank you for the tips Michelle! We utilized the Peninsular Road bus stop on our last stay on Millers Road - It was so much more convenient when going to the parks! We're going to be staying in a one bedroom villa on one of our upcoming trips, so we'll utilize the building 30 and up tip! Thank you!
@@ruflippingkiddingme I always try to stay in bldgs 23-29. I like the short walk over the bridge to the hospitality house. Close to a bus stop. Overlooking the golf course or the lake. I did not know that bldgs 30 and up have a second entrance to the master bath. This is very useful information. Thank you for sharing! 😄

Amazing! This is my favorite: Old Key West! I love it. It was spacious and there was plenty to do ;)

Great video! We are staying at OKW for the first time in 3 weeks.
Thank you! We're sure you're gonna Love OKW! Make sure you try Olivia's for both breakfast and lunch! Have a wonder vacation!
@@mousestreetdvc I already have a reservation for dinner. DO I need reservations for breakfast too or is that quick service
