Let’s gooo staycation Sunday is back! 🎉 First TIME Casey has ever been here
ALWAYS love a good staycation!!! THX for the tour guys!😄👏👍💗❤️💕💝🥰
Love that place
I think part of the charm of OKW is it’s laid back, relaxing, simple atmosphere. It is one of our favs…and we love the boat ride to the Springs!
It's a lock-off studio. It was designed that way. Through that door is a full one-bedroom, which becomes a two-bedroom if the door is unlocked and your studio becomes the 2nd bedroom.
If you don’t pay for a 1 bedroom you don’t get a 1 bedroom
Casey is always so positive😊She seems to always see the glass as half-full instead of half-empty. It’s a great way to approach life👍🏻
My wife and I went to WDW at the end of 2020--as the park began to carefully reopen. We got a sweetheart deal on accommodation, and moved from Pop Century to a one bedroom at OKW. One of the nicest hotel rooms I've ever been in, and absolutely HUGE--nearly 1000 sq ft. A full laundry room, kitchen, beautiful living\dining area and fantastic patio. Just fantastic.
My only real problem with this resort is the transportation--it has 5 bus stops, and I highly recommend walking to the Peninsular Station to pick up a bus, since that is the first stop and the buses come in largely empty.
Your room is a “lock-off”, technically it can be the second bedroom of a 2 bedroom. Next time book a 1 bedroom, it’s HUGE!
Studios do not have laundry facilities. OKW has the largest rooms and I believe they are the only resort that has two queens in their studios.
The room that you are in is a deluxe studio. They are the most spacious on property. That room may be part of a one and/or two-bedroom lock-off. That is a standard deluxe studio at Old Key West. Most other deluxe DVC resorts have only one bed. You do have access to guest laundry for free on the property in certain places. You just have to purchase laundry detergent. The square footage of the deluxe studios here are 380 square feet. At Saratoga...it is 365 sq. feet. Riviera deluxe studio is 423 square feet. Hope this is helpful.
VERY informative!!
It would be very helpful if you would let us know how much you are paying for the rooms you are staying in
@@WillyWisco-ym1oh Who cares bout Key West hotel
You only get a washer and dryer in DVC rooms if you have a 1, 2 and 3 bedroom
@@WillyWisco-ym1oh nope!!
No it's not too old. My dvc home. Very relaxing. I wish all you vloggers that review this resort would do your research on the rooms. If you do your research you would have known the difference between a studio and a 1 bedroom.
4 months late to this video because I was just looking for OKW room tour videos...but fwiw, the reason this is bigger than your Riviera room is you were in the tower studio at Riviera. Their regular deluxe studios are some of the bigger studios on DVC property :) and just as modern. Anyway, thank you for the detailed resort tour! Very helpful.
That was a nice sized room for a studio for sure!👍🥰💗❤️💕🙏🏼☺️
Walking to your room for the first time is a top 5 feeling
I guess that room wasn’t good enough for him. He didn’t like the sink. Lol!!!!
My favorite resort! Get the nachos at the the quick service! They are really good.. get a turtle crawl from the little bar you saw…we stayed in a 1 bedroom,2 bedroom and now we stay at the 3 bedroom grand villa. It’s as big as a house inside it.( we have 12 people in my immediate family, and it fits all of us very comfortably
By the Way. It's Pronounced, Conk Shell. NOT Conch Shell.
Who cares bro
Old Key West has always had those studios. They are part of a 2 bedroom lock off if you book that. Also, OKW was last refurbished about 5 years ago so not that long ago. The studios are set up almost exactly like the studios in Vero Beach.
Thanks for the video!! I’m staying at old key west for the first time this September and rented DVC Points for the first time! Very helpful getting to see everything at its most recent time!
This Deluxe Studio is HUGE! I have stayed at Yacht Club, Beach Club, and Grand Californian; those rooms are so tiny! The pull-out couches are awful! So uncomfortable! OK, you get 2 queen beds too! Holy Mother, there Is a Lot of space, Batman!
We stayed at a 2 bedroom villa there in May. We loved it. It was so nice to be away from the chaos.
Riveria tower room is not even the same catergory as any of the studio accomodations. Also, a 2-bedroom lock off in DVC speak is a one bedroom plus a studio(which is a regular hotel room). OKW is the ultimate chill staycation.
OKW and Saratoga Springs are def the most peaceful and relaxing DVC resorts IMO. Feels much more quiet than the resorts closer to the parks
I saw you guys vlogging at the pool! I always stay at old key west with the fam during the summer
Okw is my favorite hotel at disney. Also was my home resort for many years so it has a special place in my heart
Kyle, Your shirt reminds me of a saying in the 70's "Super Fly" I think there was even a song that used that title. But back then it meant "You be lookin' mighty fine and dressing up". Enjoy! Oh and Camera is definitely producing excellent images. Hug Someone you love! Cheers!
I think this is one of the better DVC resorts on the property. The theming is perfect in compared to the resorts with newer theming. The latter seemed to have furniture straight from IKEA. When it comes to the recent theming for its resorts, Disney has been dropping the ball. Have you or Casey ever had a prolonged visit to Key West, FL?
We love OKW we always stay in a 2 bedroom villa it’s huge! Great bus transportation and so close to DS! The BOAT ride is the best! But..last time we were there in 2021 I noticed the lobby needed updating the rugs were really dirty, so I’m excited to see it when we go at the end of September
Old key west is one of my family’s favorite places. Especially if we have a bunch of family with us because the grand villa is massive
Enjoying the Staycation series as always. Have you ever considered checking out some of the Good Neighbor hotels as well, for those who maybe can't afford Disney prices or who want a little reprieve from the magic after being in the parks all day? Also,, had to laugh when you mentioned this resort was also available for "regular money"; I'm sure it wasn't meant negatively. It just came out wrong, and I'm aleasily amused sometimes.
Old Key West has the biggest DVC rooms they're the best ❤ The dining or lack there of is my only complaint for the resort . The atmosphere is really cool there 😊Great drinks from the bar and have utilized the quick serve . Some studios have the couch and not the two queen beds . Not a fan of carpet .That room seems a little dated . We do a pros and cons each time before our next stay . Saratoga is our home resort which is usually where we end up due to availability 😊 Boat ride is cool ! Enjoy dinner 🥰 Thanks for taking us on your staycation loved coming along !😊
It would be nice when comparing rooms if you included pricing for them.
We will be staying here in September👍❤️. At OKW their is only two buildings that have a elevator. You are in a lock off room deluxe studio. Thanks for sharing 🤗
Room looks great to me. Older sink? It's a sink. How modern should a hotel sink be?? The dresser and DVD player are a bit outdated but otherwise it looks fine to me.
These room in the DVC world are "2 bedroom lock offs." It is a 1 bedroom suite with a studio attached to it. You can only access the 1 bedroom portion if you book the full 2 bedroom lock off.
We Love Old Key West! ❤️
Love that resort and years ago I got super lucky being a Florida resident. We got a 1 bedroom villa and it was huge!! Very lovely, very key westy lol
@kylePallo
Maybe you can help me out with this question. What happened to Pleasure Island?? The adult playground?? We went there for my 21st. back in 1996 or 1997 ya I know I'm old 😅😅😅 but we had a freaking blast at pleasure island (gosh I really hope that's what the name was) you actually might be too young to remember pleasure island but you are my go to man for any and all Disney questions!!!!
Thanks for all your wonderful videos!!!
Just like John Hamon said on, Jurassic Park “We spared no expense.”
I stayed there last year and it was awesome 👏
Did they stop doing the welcome message on the TV when you come into the room?
He wants to carry on the pallo name, but for some reason the TV keeps showing Casey’s last name first 🤔
Maybe they don't want weirdos from the gossip sites stalking Casey. Some of those folks are obsessed with with channel. It's bizarre.
I have stayed at old key west in a very similar room as that and it was cheaper than pop century. So it really does help looking at different properties in case there are deals.
What you guys stayed in is the Deluxe studio. If you stay in a two bedroom villa, that door will be unlocked and it will lead you into the 1 bedroom villa (deluxe studio plus the 1 bedroom would equal the 2 bedroom villa). Those studio villas are the largest on property. I absolutely love OKW ❤
Have a Turtle Krawl at the Gurgling Suitcase. You can't go wrong.
You are correct that OKW are the largest rooms but I would love to take the bathroom in the Rivera and put it on my house. Have fun!
OKW is our home resort. We bought into it when our daughter was just 18 months old and is now 27 so we have definitely got our money worth there. We loved going there when kids were young because they had sand at two of the pools and was laid back and the biggest rooms not including the studio. However one of the only DVC studio rooms with two beds.
Yeah very nice. The only other Studio with 2 "real" beds that I know of is the Resort Studios at the Grand Floridian.
That’s funny you finally do a staycation video at Old Key West Resort and stayed in that exact same room when I stayed there !It was nice being close to the lobby and the bus stop there ! I love that resort! But you do need to do go back again and do the video on the 1 bedroom villa It is so much bigger than all the other resorts!
no shot how cool
I was there last year I enjoy it.
Key west are the largest rooms on property, boardwalk is 2nd. The one bedroom or two room dedicated or lockout are very large. It is easier to get around Saratoga than key west. The one thing about dvc they maintain their rooms . As a member I truly prefer my resort Saratoga. I’ve stayed in almost every hotel or dvc room. Try beach club dvc resort next. I love it but with seven hotels in the area to crowded.
amazing resort, owners since 91!
Look into Magic Candle Company. They have identical scents of all of the resorts and rides. Great addition for the new apartment.
The Dream was our first ship too! Now here we are going for the Grand Slam in Sept on the Wish we will have been on every ship at least once! Holloween on high seas! Come and join us Kyle! It be fun! 9/18 Cheap, right after school start be very few elementary, middle and highschoolers. Rock on... Cheers! Bring Mom and Dad!
That’s an amazing location
The one bedrooms at Old Key West are WAY more updated with vinyl flooring and shower doors from what I remember. At least from a few years ago down past the lake.
Daughter and husband just checked into their resort. She starts DCP#2 tomorrow!
Kyle walking in the sauna fully dressed work a camera 😂
We’re going to try to stay here thanks for doing this video. Hey, if you do Vero beach for a Sunday staycation, you’ve got to check out McKee gardens! And also check out Waldo Sexton’s places. (you can see his work in the gardens as well.) The Driftwood Lodge in Waldos for a beer and a look, and then Ocean Grill for a nice meal. Trust me you won’t regret it.
Kyle...I hope you saw the Wisconsin license plate in the bar at Old Key West. A good friend of mine donated it. Sadly, he passed away last year, and recently one of his son's got the plate on his vehicle.
OkdKey West is beautiful. The style might not be to your liking it it doesn’t make it outdated. I look at it and see the functionality.
I thought the Riviera room you stayed in was the tower studio room? That is a different category than the deluxe studio room and isn't an equal comparison. Riviera does have deluxe studio rooms too. Maybe you could do one of those for a future staycation?
Don't forget about location when comparing resorts. When someone can take the skyliner to Epcot/HS compared busses its a big difference for a family going to the parks. Not as big of a deal for a staycation though.
Casey opened the shower curtain ahead looked like Vanna White 😂😂😂
😅
I've never been to Key West before. I love the vibe. The room was actually a good size for a studio, I like that. Wow, a vlog of firsts for me, I've never been to Terralina - the food looked good.
What’s that room going for?!
Riviera also has studios, the tower suite room you stayed on is not their version of a studio. The studio at Riviera is nicer but it is more expensive- Old Key West is a nicer price.
My fiancé and I are getting married at Disney’s Swan Resort next year. Would love to see you do a staycation Sunday there to see all the ins and outs of the resort of the Swan and Dolphin. Love the staycation Sunday videos, keep up the great content.
Have you stayed at the Disney Polynesian resort it looks so cool
I don't know. I stayed at boardwalk dvc studio which seemed larger. Different vibe. Your room is more square where bw was longer. Still a nice room. I think if you had the room you thought you were getting you wouldn't be criticizing as much.
Let’s goooo Staycation Sunday! Casey is always so positive 😊 I love her energy
This series gives such good information about the resorts. Thinking of buying DVC resale so this really helps thanks!
This resort u could just buy regular if wanted
Kyle, did they expand the store? It looks bigger than I recall. This is my home DVS resort, but it’s been a long time since I have stayed there because the kids love Animal Kingdom Lodge.
Never fancied a studio at old key west! I hope the riviera is not comparable, I’d be disappointed! Luckily I’ve booked a one bedroom at the riviera !
We stayed in a 2 bedroom at Old Key West in 2021. We loved it! The studio section was where my mom had her own space and it was great for her. We would stay in a one bedroom with just the 3 of us if we went again. Myself my husband and my 4 yer old dont need a two bed. Even the studio would work! Great vlog! Hi CASEY :)
Casey is so positive 😅 I love her energy!
Kyle, hoping you would consider including Casey’s outfit and accessory details in the description of the videos you are in together. Her stuff is always so cute! -Ellie
Gnocchi is one of my absolute favorite Italian dishes. It’s pure comfort food! I’m sorry it wasn’t your favorite. I love the room - yes it’s dated. But it’s spacious & that’s a plus. I also love the option of taking a boat to DS. Love Staycation Sundays! ❤️
Sunday fun day!! Let’s goooo!
let's goooooo is right Jason
Love the staycation Sunday videos! We will be staying at Old Key West in one week! It’ll be our first time staying there. The rooms look outdated, but the price is amazing! Half the price when compared to most DVC rooms. Super excited to check out the resort 🎉
Fried pickles at the Gurgling suitcase👍🏽
Ooh have a wonderful time! It’s my DVC home resort and I always love my stay there.
@@lisathomas1622 thank you!
Can you do a staycation at the Poly next Weekend? I check into the Poly Saturday and I’m hoping to run in y’all!
No Universal Studios hotels
Just out of curiosity…have you ever tried using you AP card as a room key? If it is linked to your MDE account, it should scan for everything a MagicBand does.
Old Key West is my favorite resort by far. We love the space, and the boat to Disney Springs.
We were just there late May... same building as you guys actually. Top floor, 1-bedroom. Huge balcony with a fantastic water view and fireworks view at night.
I'm sorry you guys seemed disappointed with the room. Most of the rooms at OKW have been refurbished recently. Ours was, I'm surprised yours was not.
Note: Only 3 buildings at OKW have elevators. Might be important to some.
Love the staycation Vlogs! Waiting for the Poly Bora Bora Bungalows. I haven't stayed in one.... yet!
hi Kyle! Its the studio portion of a two bedroom home. Was always this way. That door does connect to a one bedroom home. And combined they make a two bedroom home. There are also studios that do not connect to one bedroom homes. That is the only difference between your studio, which is a studio lock off, and a dedicated studio which cannot connect to a one bedroom home.
Yo Kyle what park are you going to tmr I’m going to Epcot
So if that is a 1 br villa on the other side of that door it's a 2 br lock off if someone rents both sides...
Good morning, our home away from home for 23 years … you want to be amazed ..l you should stay in a one bedroom there
I have that room is niceeee
We love old key west! That room is called a 2 bedroom lock off- it’s used as a 2 bedroom when needed or can be used as a studio.
My Home Away from Home ❤❤❤❤. My DVC home. ❤❤❤❤
1 bedroom and up gets laundry. You are technically staying in the lockoff portion of a 1 bedroom lockoff, as opposed to staying in a true studio. True studio wouldn't have had a connecting door. Riv you'd be trading less space for skyliner access honestly. I tell members it depends if you're just looking to snooze and be active park goers or if you are looking to relax at resort as far as the either or
Enjoyed the video! One of our home resorts. The DVC point charts are great here compared to Riviera. All studios have a connecting door. (Lockoff option). There are dedicated two bedrooms that won’t have that kitchenette or balcony in that portion of the villa.
You expected a 1 bedroom when you booked a studio?
Can you do a stay at art of animation the little mermaid rooms I’m coming there in sept and I love conch fritters it is yummy they should have it there
Staycations Vlogs are the best
Agreed 👍🏻
Great timing on this video, we arrive next Saturday at OKW. I’ve been watching a bunch of videos on it but nobody shows the smaller pools around the resort. I’m also trying to find out where you can refill resort mugs on that property? Also , can we bring a cooler to the pool with us, if our room is far from pool, we want to bring drinks, snacks, lunch and not have to walk back and forth. One more thing, is there more than one hot tub(like at other pools) Thanks in advance. Love your videos
You can refill your mug at the main pool area and you used to be able to refill it the turtle pond area. That area used to have a play area and sand and a place to buy food and snacks, however haven’t been there in a while so not sure it still exists.
Love the staycation videos. The resort itself looked really nice. The room looked nice, too, but a little bit dated. Thanks for sharing.
Deluxe Studio or as most people call “Hotel Room”
I’m thinking for the cost of that room it my not be worth it. It looks pretty spacious for a studio and super clean. My husband has an issue with the small tv 😆 Lovely resort. Thank you for showing it to us!
Love it ❤ We're locals too and have reservations for brunch at Olivia's and then going to Disney Springs to see the new Haunted Mansion movie. I'm hoping you show the boat ride to Disney Springs!
Very cool staycation KP.
Studios don’t have washers and dryers. Like when you stayed at the GF Mary Poppins studio
Nice Vlog Kyle! So glad you highlighted the water Taxi to Springs. One of my favorite free things to do as a local is have drinks at OKW and take water Taxi to springs. I love KW and OKWR so classic Florida and the traditional KW pastel colors. I think you would appreciate it more if you would have got a two bedroom like JoJo did. I would pick OKW over Rivera because IMO it looks like an office building
Studio means exactly that. Just like a studio apartment. One room...lmao. If it is a one bedroom it is no longer a studio. Good vid though.
