We stayed on the 14th floor, lake view, 11/15-11/19. Loved the view & feel the room was our favorite of any WDW resort we've stayed at (over 30 trips). The food at Contempo Café was very good and pretty reasonably priced. So cool to see the monorail passing through up above! The pool areas were very nicely done. It was a little too cold to enjoy most of the outdoor features, except for one day. Love the boat transportation and walking to MK. Look forward to returning in the future in warmer weather!
Pros:
Fantastic, spacious room with a great view. Boat transportation to WL & campground, walking to MK. Pool areas & Contempo Café.Cons:
Very limited menu at Villas pool bar.Reviewed by lauridg Review Date: 05/26/2019

We just returned from a week stay in a one bedroom villa, and loved this resort-it is our now officially our favorite. We had a lake view (rm 7910), but could see the fireworks from MK easily. The common living space seemed to have more room that other 1 bdrm villas we have stayed in, and we loved having the extra bathroom for our teenage daughter. The staff was helpful and friendly- even when our TV stopped working, it was replaced within 1/2 a hour. There is a little wear and tear showing, but nothing that would prevent me from staying here again. I liked the toned down \"Disney theme\", and found the decor relaxing.
Pros:
Proximity to MK, loved the room, view was awesome.Cons:
rooms could use a little refreshing.Reviewed by Tink1027 Review Date: 04/17/2019

One of my favorite places, Walk across the street to MK, hop on the monorail to TTC to Epcot. Beautiful rooms, comfortable beds, very few bad views in the building, great food options.

It doesnt have a real Disney feel but it is themed very well to be a modern but comfortable resort. The nearness to the Magic Kingdom cannot be overstated. There are so many food options and shopping options as well.
Pros:
nearness to MK parkCons:

We absolutely LOVE this resort. If we weren't DVC members, we would pay to stay here using a service like David's to rent points. BUT, we are members and this is our home resort. I cannot say enough good stuff about staying here - friendliness and efficiency of cast members, spacious design of villas, comfy beds, convenience of being on the monorail, the views, the pools, having our own laundry and full kitchen, and everything is kept so clean. Absolutely, hands down, the best on property and one of the few to have an extra bathroom... the 1 BR has two baths, the 2 BR has three, and so on. LOVE THIS PLACE - we just stayed there a week ago and have plans to go back in early February. Can't get enough!
Pros:
Convenient location and all the amenities one would expect from WDWCons:

Location location location! It can't be beat. I mean you can walk to MK. The Monorail is right there! BLT is great part of DVC. Pretty cool decorations. The pool is ok, small in a way, but cool. Slide is fun.
Pros:
Close walk to MK. Monorail to Epcot and 2 other resorts!Cons:
Have to walk over to contemporary for food and shoppingReviewed by Lisa B Review Date: 09/26/2018

Bay Lake Tower
Pros:
Bay Lake Tower is one of the best resorts on Walt Disney World property. The resort is well appointed, offers a lot of amenities for everyone to enjoy. The rooms are of ample size too. The best feature: the Magic Kingdom is literally in your backyard and you can walk there quickly! I like how it is connected via walkway to the Contemporary Resort.Cons:
No cons.Reviewed by rjhmon Review Date: 01/19/2017

BLT is our home resort and we stayed 1/8-1/15, this is our first time in a one bedroom here, we had plenty of room and the full kitchen was great to have, there also is a very large flat screen tv in the living room and that was a big plus with all the football games.
The room was very quiet and clean, the 2 bathrooms came in handy In the mornings.
we had great view of the pool area and the lake behind the pool.
