We just got back and I have to say that the Beach Club/BCV continues to be a favorite of ours. Even with a room down a long hallway of doom, we quite enjoyed our stay and the location. I just wish they were running more buses. Seemed the BC/YC buses were little unicorns at times while we saw Boardwalk bus after bus arrive.
As to Stormalong Bay, this was one of the things we were most looking forward to trying out. I didn't manage to go during my last trip due to timing. This time we had a cabana one day (cabana #1). If it is possible for you to do so, I highly recommend the cabanas. It was so glorious to have that space. We spent 10:30-4:30 at the pool one day and cannot imagine we would have stayed nearly as long without the cabana.
The one other day we went to the pool was a VERY busy day. We did manage to get chairs right away but we had to wait on a few people ahead of in line to get seated before us. Unfortunately the chairs we were given were seated on the sun itself and I felt like a melty puddle o' goo. Thankfully, someone near us left shortly after we arrived and a CM let me swap places with them for the now vacant spot in the shade. Lesson learned: request a spot in the shade and wait even if we have to get one.
Now I also have a question. We had so much fun, I went to book a trip for next year and could get nothing mid-April in BCV. Do y'all know if they are limiting what can be booked for next year at this time? There actually seemed to be relatively little openings for some hotels all the way into April 2022.
