As you can see by my screen name, I have 3 kids---now ages 4.5, 6, and 8 and we have been staying at DVC resorts with them for 3-4 years, so we have been staying at DVC with kids ranging in age from 1 - 8. My kids are slide fanatics and have quite a little ranking system for pools, resorts, and then slides get their own category....
They will be total disers as soon as they are old enough!
And the 8 year old is more of a Disney expert than most of us here on the Dis!
Anyway, they love the SLIDE at BWV best, though not the pool. They like both SAB at BCV and SSR pool better. As a parent, though, realize that it is tough to watch your kids at SAB. However, the 2 year old will love the zero entry area at SSR pool.
They like OKW, as they like all of the resorts and pools, but it is last on their list currently (we have not yet stayed in VWL).
So, here are their rankings in each category:
POOL:
SSR
SAB/BCV
BWV
OKW
SLIDE:
BWV
SSR
SAB
OKW
RESORT:
They base this category on (funny enough) many of the same things we adults do....how easy it is to get to the main pool/restaurant, the inside of the villas, and what other "stuff" there is to do there. These ranked:
SSR (note--we have always been in the Springs in the building closest to the main pool, so we are really close to AP and the pool).
BWV (they loved to watch the entertainers on a cool evening after the park)
BCV
OKW
And then there is the food category--which they haven't officially ranked yet, but I know where they are--
BCV (Character meal right in your resort, plus Beaches & Cream, and they love the clam bake, and you can get several CS meals at the poolside bar and grill, Hurricane Hannahs. BCV gets a perfect score in terms of food!)
SSR (AP is great)
OKW (they love the conch fritters!)
BWV (No counter service at the actual resort and little-to-no food at the pool side bar)
So, there are the opinions of my 3 Disney kids! Hope this helps!
BTW, when giving their all around favorite rankings, it looks like this:
SSR/BCV tie
BWV
OKW
