We are DVC Members and the Beach Club Villas are our favorite location to stay. We like the accessiblility to Epcot for all the eateries there as well as the accessibility to other things.

You can walk to Epcot through the back entrance, so much shorter lines. You can even then take the monorail from Epcot to Magic Kingdom. You can take a boat to MGM/HS. A bus to all else, but you have to bus it at times from whereever you stay.

The Storm Along Bay pool is the best. It has a sand bottom, a childs section, current river section, slides, waterfalls...etc. We usually don't go to water park if we stay here.

We love the room service if you have to use it. The Villas are accessible to the rest of the resort as well as Yacht club and the Board Walk. You can walk to Swan and Dolphin as well, although we never have.

The biggest con would be that the bus does stop at 5 resorts total. Swan, Dolphin, Boardwalk, Yacht & Beach club. You do hear the fire works from Epcot at night, but that does not bother us. The other is that you can get a room that is very far from the elevator, so LONG walks to your room.

Other than that, I have nothing bad to say. As for Magic. I think anything Disney does has Magic. It does feel like you are at the beach and especially when there is an actual beach outside.
