How Many Days In A Row Will We Wear Tie Dye (or Disney 2009 review): Part 5.1featured
I haven’t seen many pictures of the 1-bedroom villas at the Bay Lake Towers, and luckily for everyone who wants them, I take pictures of everything and anything (literally- you’ll see). Please don’t take my pictures and post them elsewhere without my permission.
So, this is a photo tour of a 1-bedroom villa (8134) at Bay Lake Towers. I’ll be sprinkling pictures of the public areas (like the pool) in the review. This is just the room. It’s very photo intensive (but what on this blog isn’t?) and if anyone has any questions, please let me know and I’ll do my best to find an answer.
Also, I took a picture of the amenity list (what’s in the kitchen, the closets, etc) but it didn’t come out well so I’ll key it in on the bottom. It’s valid for both 1- and 2-bedroom villas at the BLT.
