BLT & Top of the World

Hi :wave: DVC framily!

We are staying at BLT for the first time in March. (We have stayed in the Contemporary before we were DVC members.) We’ve also never been to the Top of the World Lounge. Tell me everything I need to know.

Are you planning on going to the paid event or just trying to go up and watch fireworks?

We won’t do the paid event, but we definitely want to visit. Fireworks viewing would be cool. Mostly my husband “loves a good lounge” (his words, not mine :rofl:)

When is your trip? The Wicked Wind Down begins 30 minutes before fireworks (at least that is what the website states). Those tables will be reserved. If you want to sit in the lounge, some nights it might be easier after fireworks.

We are there March 15-21. That’s a good idea to wait until it’s over. My mom will be with us, so she can stay with the kids and I can take DH to get his lounge fix.

In my experience, I always assume there will be a wait list for DVC lounges, so I might keep that in mind. I’ve attempted Top of the World Twice. First time, we tried to stop by around may 10 pm (well after fireworks) on our way back to our room at CR. There was a wait list, so we just gave up. The next time, I booked the Wind Down. No wait list for that obviously, and we had a nice time. Not sure I would do it again, though. It’s lovely up there. I don’t think the vantage point for fireworks is awesome, however.
