Perfect timing Amy! We just purchased a resale contract from Dani(she is great) for BRV. We scoped the rooms out while staying at CCV two weeks ago. They look great. Thanks to you and Paul as it help us with the decision to purchase. Big investment for us Canadians with currency exchange and travel distance considerations but still worth it IMO. Keep up the great work.
Found the video because I have not stayed at BRV, and only once at CC. I happened to just book a four night and wanted to see the new reno. It is much needed and lovely. Thanks for sharing.
We have been members at the Wilderness Lodge, now Boulder Ridge, since 2001 and are very happy for the well themed renovations . Looks great! Thank You for the video review.👍🏼😊
question! there are 2 nightstands by the bed right? Just wacthed another review of the brv studios and there was just one? and no usb at all? Why? how would an owner booking a studiio make sure to get a room with 2 bed side nightstands and USB's?? this strange. any idea?
What is weird is that I am so used to Boulder Ridge not being renovated that I even read the title of this video in my head as Copper Creek and I said.. man they re-did Copper Creek again! lol. Looks great and is much needed, Boulder Ridge is my favorite DVC area, lobby, section, enviornment.
Good video, but you didn’t show what seating replaced the chairs that used to be with the dining table. It looks like only comfortable seating for 2 people now?
Do you know the size of the single pull down beds? I love that Riviera’s are larger than most resorts & hoping for something similarly sized at Boulder Ridge. Thanks!
just returned stayed at Floridain studio then jumped to Boulder Ridge 2 bedroom Villa. bottom LINE WILL NEVER STAY AT GF but boulder ridge is our favorite now! if i cannot get Beach Club we will book Boulder ridge. great Adult Stay!
Im confused....is the refurb just for DVC members or regular hotel guests too? When she mentions every booking moving forward will be new rooms, does that count for everyone?
This is for a DVC resort, however rooms are available at this DVC resort to purchase through Disney for cash. This refurb has not affected the hotel rooms at Wilderness Lodge. This is just for the DVC portion called Boulder Ridge.
It seems half-done; almost as if two interior designers designed the space. This is the issue with Disney reusing existing furniture and fixtures during renovations.
I like the murphy beds but I wish they would not have gotten rid of the tables and chairs. I had one of those pop out tables at BW. I hated it! I can't imagine sitting on the sofa and eating? Those ottomans didn't cut it either with no backs. I hate the way the studios are trending now.
It looks a lot neater, cleaner and fresh. But it's not really that impressive overall. I'd like to see more rich colors and textures. This falls flat to me. I hope his isn't a preview of how AKV will be renovated.
If they had it that way it would constantly be hitting that wall and both would get dinged up. It opens the way that is the most logical given the space.
I effing HATE the fact that they have taken the tables and chairs out of all of the renovated rooms!!! Where the EFF am I supposed to sit and work with my laptop??? Can someone at DVC answer that question??? The pop-up table is NOT an acceptable substitute, and you can’t use it if the Murphy bed is open. It SUCKS!!!
I am starting to feel that all the resort rooms blend into the same theme. White with some accents.... The character of the different rooms is fading away with the renovations. By all means, they needed a renovation, but the look and feel of a lodge seems lost along with the change. They are all beginning to look like generic hotel rooms.
So excited to stay here next summer ❤

Welcome Home!
We haven’t stayed here for a while, but with the new renovation I think we are going to put this resort back into the rotation. Thanks for the tour!!!

Nice video. Thank you for showing us.
Great renovations and those Murphy beds are THE BEST additions to the DVC rooms ❤ Wonderful job, Amy and Paul 😃

Our home resort, great to hear that it has been remodeled, it was overdue. Great video. 👍🏻
finally the refurb we have been waiting for!!!!
question! there are 2 nightstands by the bed right? Just wacthed another review of the brv studios and there was just one? and no usb at all? Why? how would an owner booking a studiio make sure to get a room with 2 bed side nightstands and USB's?? this strange. any idea?
Staying here before our cruise June 3 and so excited 😊 🎉 thank you for sharing
Thank you for posting. Staying in a Boulder Ridge Studio in May. Excited for my first stay!
Gorgeous. Considering a split stay between here and The Contemporary next year.
Great tour! Thank you.
Great room tour thank you so much for showing me this love the changes and you look good too
This makes me want to stay there! Thanks for the tour!
Rooms looks awesome! I’ve never stayed there. I’m gonna have to book a couple nights soon!! Thanks for the tour!

Love to see these rooms - thanks! They did a great job!
We rented points and just stayed there last week. It was beautiful and perfect!!! Now to start my campaign to sell my husband on buying DVC!
Just stayed at Coronado Springs (Rancho from) and it had very similar theming and quality. Yes no Murphy bed or kitchenette, but good quality
Love me some Hoop-De-Doo, just wish it weren't so darn expensive!
Looking forward to our studio/2Bed stay in a couple weeks. Glad to hear it will be new inventory only :) Great tour!
Good video, but you didn’t show what seating replaced the chairs that used to be with the dining table. It looks like only comfortable seating for 2 people now?
They were two little stools. So sorry, we recorded it and Paul accidentally left it out in editing.
@@YamKriegs Thank you! Video was very informative!
Looking good. Are you doing the 1 and 2 bedrooms too?
Do you know the size of the single pull down beds? I love that Riviera’s are larger than most resorts & hoping for something similarly sized at Boulder Ridge. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. Was there still an iron and ironing board in the closet? I didn't see it in the video.
Oddly, it was just the random steamer. Not sure if this is a new thing going forward.
This redo looks fantastic. Do you know if the 1 Bedroom Villas have been redone as well? Even the accessible ones? Thanks
anyone know if all the studios will be redone before Dec 1st?
just returned stayed at Floridain studio then jumped to Boulder Ridge 2 bedroom Villa. bottom LINE WILL NEVER STAY AT GF but boulder ridge is our favorite now! if i cannot get Beach Club we will book Boulder ridge. great Adult Stay!
Staying in a studio now. But we’re missing a nightstand on one side. So strange!

Nice vibes! Still not using my points there lol
Is BRV a 2042 resort?
Yes
Can you ask for a kettle do you think?
Does this sleep 5?
Yes!
WHERE IS THE SWITCH FOR THE BATHOOOOOOOM
The rooms look great but I’m just not a fan for some reason.
It seems half-done; almost as if two interior designers designed the space. This is the issue with Disney reusing existing furniture and fixtures during renovations.
Can you guys make a video on the the pay increases at Disney World and how it will effect the HOA fees. Will it effect none Disney World resorts?
I like the murphy beds but I wish they would not have gotten rid of the tables and chairs. I had one of those pop out tables at BW. I hated it! I can't imagine sitting on the sofa and eating? Those ottomans didn't cut it either with no backs. I hate the way the studios are trending now.

I own property there. It looked better before the redesign.
I hate glass doors on a bathtub. Makes it so much harder to bathe kids. Otherwise, the refurb looks great.
Refrigerator door opens on the wrong side. They should have switched it.
If they had it that way it would constantly be hitting that wall and both would get dinged up. It opens the way that is the most logical given the space.
The "woodsy" feel of the villas is gone!
Plastic “silverware” and paper plates SUCK!!!
I effing HATE the fact that they have taken the tables and chairs out of all of the renovated rooms!!! Where the EFF am I supposed to sit and work with my laptop??? Can someone at DVC answer that question??? The pop-up table is NOT an acceptable substitute, and you can’t use it if the Murphy bed is open. It SUCKS!!!

Much overdue
Tub or no tub.... Skipped right over it🙄
Check out 1:28 min in.
I’ll save you some time. Tub.
Not a fan of the new look.
