Disney Travel Day and Boardwalk Villa Room Tour

[@danielkim7841]

I never knew the concept of an owner's locket existed until I watched one of Jen's videos explaining it. She described how people put some strange and random things in there like of all things, a crock pot. Now I cannot get the idea of bringing a crockpot to Walt Disney World out of my head! I mean bringing a crockpot and having it there at Disney World is just genius. Can you imagine getting a five pound chuck roast from the Kroger, then getting a stick of butter and a packet of Lipton onion soup mix and some precut celery and carrot sticks, putting them in the crockpot at the setting of low at 8 am before you leave your Coronado Springs hotel room, then having a blast during the day with rides like It's a Small World and Magic Mountain, watching some fireworks, then coming home at night and having a completely cooked pot roast, succulent and juicy, with its own sauce and gravy plus side vegetables! I mean come on, that is just genius. Now I cannot stop thinking and obsessing about it and I have it on my bucket list that one of these days I WILL bring a crockpot to my Disney World resort room and I WILL have delicious pot roast after a full day of Disney fun!!! Thank you Jen for planting that seed in me!!

Been a rough couple of weeks and this vlog was such a light in my day! I really appreciate your approach to Disney vlogs!!

[@JenLefforge]

Thank you, Brittany!

[@CoralJoyTravel]

Oh Jen....this vlog is bringing me every feel I needed this morning. I LOVE it. fyi: I'd bring you tea in the lobby any day :)

[@JenLefforge]

Wait you watched one of my videos? What?!?! 😂🤣❤️❤️❤️

[@tammydahl386]

Loved meeting you and the others, Jen! Thanks for making my kids think I'm cool because I made it in a KZbin video! 😅 I bought the diffuser you suggested and it fit on the hair dryers I used at OKW, AKL and BLT. The bed at Boardwalk was our favorite on our last trip!

Thank you SO MUCH for measuring the fold-out twin bed!! I have wondered for a long time if a shorter adult could fit. That was absolutely the most perfect review I have been needing the most. Thank you!!

[@JenLefforge]

I know that’s what I wanted to know too and measurements don’t help me as much as a visual so I was happy to do it!

[@alexisbk9576]

[@trishap4721]

Love the video. I literally JUST booked a one bedroom here for April. We always stay at beach club but couldn’t beat the price of boardwalk this time. Rented dvc points. Watched your video about that as well. Thx for the tips.

[@Support4isrl]

I love the Boardwalk!

[@JamieMiles_southmainmuse]

How fun - your Patron meet up! So jealous of your “relaxing” day at Disney. It seems like enough time passes between our Disney trips and our stays so short - that I feel like I have to go. Go. Go. Loved that you had such a nice gathering. Not that I’m jealous. 😀. PS. I LOVE the redo of the Yacht Club lobby.

[@vickiemendoza9252]

Great start to a Disney Vaca! minus the rain....hehe What a cute and adorable room with everything a girl could need :)

[@JenLefforge]

Yes! I felt a bit like a Queen! As it should be.🥰

[@bronniepaterson4694]

Love that studio… The separates bath and toilet to the sink is great… Love the way you didn’t hide from the rain…. I like to unpack…doesn’t matter how long I’m staying..I unpack. You look so cute in your ears… It’s lovely watching all the “ friendship” boats..love that name… We would call them transfer boats…. Don’t understanding they do not do tea in the lobby so odd… Great you get to meet your patrons…..👍🇬🇧

[@MTravelVlog]

I really enjoyed your video. 🤩⭐️ Thanks for Sharing! 👍🏼💕 Greetings from Albania. 🇦🇱

[@kimberlylavoie4940]

It was so much fun talking with you at our chance meeting walking around Crescent Lake (near the Yacht Club) in the evening. I could not believe that I actually met the famous, KZbin vlogger, Jen Lefforge. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your vacation.

[@JenLefforge]

I’m so glad you said hello!! Hope the rest of your trip was amazing!

[@chevonnewallace8370]

This video made me sooo happy! There is both an excitement and a relaxing feeling I get at WDW that I absolutely love and which this video embodies!

[@JenLefforge]

I'm so glad you loved it, Chevonne!

[@Liezjeuh]

Yaaayyyyy Disney triiiipppppp :-) Loved the room tour, loved the excitement, loved the puns and jokes, love love love love love! :-)

[@SarahAnn2314]

This video is exactly what I needed on my lunch break this Monday! I love all your packing video's, so this unpacking video at Disney was a lovely surprise. :)

[@JenLefforge]

Hurray! Yeah, I don't know why I don't normally show that part but glad I did!

[@kezw6554]

I do the same thing, my husband and I will usually stay for a week or almost a week and as soon as I get into the room, after I wipe down everything, I completely unpack my suitcase. I hang up everything, lay out all of my shoes and fill all the drawers and that's my home for the week. No living out of a suitcase when you're staying at the Disney Villas. 👌🏽 Just makes sense.

[@JenLefforge]

Exactly!! I take that welcome home thing seriously! 😂

[@twinderful]

😂😂 love this room tour. One drink and an early morning flight makes for a punchy Jen. 😊😊

[@JenLefforge]

It's true - I can do lack of sleep or drink but BOTH is . . interesting. 😂

[@thediztasticfamily]

Just what I needed on this Monday morning! Thanks for the perfectly timed magic!! 💗

[@JenLefforge]

Oh goodness, my pleasure!

[@juliemitchell6561]

Boardwalk is so peaceful and calm. Tea would be great! Sounds and looks wonderful!

Hi Jen, I’m planning on using the same transportation service that you do when I go, thanks for sharing that little bit to get some familiarity. Also this got me really excited for my January trip!

[@jennforrunningoutloud9507]

"I know. I'm extra." 😆😆😆 Girl, you're hilarious. Boardwalk is one of the places I'm looking at for our next trip and it was so cool to see it like this. I'm so glad you had an amazing time.

[@kimlamonte5593]

Love the background Soarin music on resort TV channel. It makes a great video to keep on while you are doing household chores!

[@JenLefforge]

Honestly it's on at our house all the time now "for the dogs"

[@crystalpate7535]

Yay! How fun! Thanks for sharing!

[@kristensmith80]

Would love to stay at the Boardwalk one day. Fingers crossed for some good 7 month DVC juju one year! Just beautiful! Thanks for the glimpse into your owner's locker. My hubby (the more hesitant "do we really need that" one in the relationship) wants to get one and in this case, I'm actually the hesitant one. Hmmmmm...

[@becksstuff9451]

Love your Vlogs. They educate & raise my spirits. Thanks for posting!

[@rachelhill9407]

🥰 I just love it!

[@margaretmurphy6623]

Yay! Things are feeling incredibly heavy in my world and I spent the morning dream planning a DL vacation instead of grocery shopping and the other necessary things I need to be doing. This was infinitely better than even planning a trip I am not taking.

[@sheilaa1333]

😂 Good to know I’m not the only one that does that! Every time work is particularly bad I plan my next trip instead (whether or not it’s a real one).

[@JenLefforge]

I'm honored to be a small part of your dreaming!

[@marybiggs6233]

Me too. If the borders would only open.

[@sharonrollins2386]

I love Boardwalk! It may have to do with the fact that was the first time my hubby and I stayed at a DVC villa room, plus it was my birthday! We also stayed on the first floor. The convenience was awesome & the room was beautiful. We had a great time! Thank you for the happy videos Jen.

[@JenLefforge]

Honestly OKW is still my favorite but this is a close second!

[@kathybraden5062]

Thanks for the vlogs. Will definitely be using Orlando transportation by Mike when I go in December. Hope you have a wonderful trip.

SO fun, Jen. We will be staying at Beach Club in January.

[@emilysolomon5977]

So miss Disney, we are going to have to plan a trip again.

[@jo-annedeklerk8089]

I love the boat scenes 😻

[@Ashleew]

What a lovely relaxing time! Today my oldest is fully vaccinated! We are 75% of the way to a fully vaccinated house…I cannot wait until we are 100% so we can go back to Disney. It’s been just far too long.

[@JenLefforge]

That's amazing, Ashlee, and hurray for one step closer!!!!

[@TheLauren1113]

We stayed at the Boardwalk Inn last month. The resort is beautiful although the room itself sorely needed an updated and was really dusty. The location itself was amazing though. If they renovate the Inn rooms, the resort would be perfect. We ended up moving to the Yacht Club the last few nights because the carpeting in the room aggravated my daughter’s allergies. The rooms on the Villa side look much better than the rooms on the Inn side.

[@bridgettturner7787]

I’m sitting in front of my 2 FANS watching your channel 😂

[@JenLefforge]

I'm saying this is how we need to live well. I approve.

[@nicoletwisk5122]

I would love to see how you packed and organized for your entire crew!. Isn't it luxurious traveling alone? Lol. I love me some packing cubes and our Disney trips are going to be a little different now that we own DVC. After our big Christmas trip definitely shorter. We are also new owners at Aulani and I really wish someone did owner's lockers there. We plan to go frequently so they would come in handy.

[@kristincortina6274]

Thank you so much for your vlogs! We live just around the corner from Disney and used to go every weekend. With two young babies that are still unable to get vaccinated, we've only been dreaming of Disney since the great unpleasantness happened. Your videos keep us going!

[@jcbnyc2009]

Wife loves the boats too. She also has a problem.

[@allisonbarton5525]

Loved this video! I am headed to the Boardwalk in December and loved seeing all the footage of the Friendship Boats. It might be my favorite area at Disney.

[@JenLefforge]

Allison SAME. I don't even need parks when I'm over there!

[@HeatherTravels]

Thank you for lying down on the pull down bed so we could see how big it actually is! I do still wonder if the ones in the deluxes/DVC resorts are the same size as the ones in the moderate resorts, like Caribbean Beach or Port Orleans Riverside. My son slept on one at POR when he was 6 and I feel like it would be too small for him now.

[@packyourpixiedust]

The comment, “I’m extra.” Loooove it! Also, as for the hook- are you sure there weren’t any hooks by the front door. In the one-bedroom, there was a mirror by the front door and there were hooks there were lower ones where we put our masks. Then upper ones in the side where we hung our stockings for a Christmas. (We stayed there over Christmas.)

[@JenLefforge]

There weren’t but that doesn’t mean they weren’t supposed to be there - I find sometimes things are just missing!

[@hannahthompson9984]

Yay!! I was hoping we would make it into a video! So glad we got to meet❤️

[@JenLefforge]

You TOTALLY did!! So great meeting you and Hunter!

[@journeys_with_jen]

Looks like an amazing Disney Day. I love the renovated lobby. So nice! You have me once again dreaming of a solo trip. We had our family of 5 in that studio room at the Beach Club for 9 days and it was a bit overwhelming. Having it all to yourself is AMAZING!

[@JenLefforge]

Yeah, when I was watching your videos I was wondering how that went! LOL

[@lisasproul8027]

Love the boardwalk!

[@nancyb4977]

Thanks for sharing your day! Love how you crack yourself up. When I’ve stayed in a BWV studio with adult son and daughter, I’m the 5’6” who sleeps on the pull down. Works for me!

Honestly I obviously didn't need to use it but would have been just fine!

[@lindawags]

We were there for the first time last week. We stayed 2 nights. We had a second floor room way down by the dvc pool. The walk was sooo far (we were traveling with my handicapped son) so the room location was not good. The room was beautiful and clean but we found the tub was very very slippery. We were surprised the pool area was dirty (garbages over flowing) and pool furniture by the tables were all chipped and cushions were stained. This was a 2 week trip so we split our stay between bay lake, akl and boardwalk. Idk if we’d stay here again but I’m glad we tried it.
