Exterior work is scheduled to occur this fall at Disney's Beach Club Villas.  The work will include repairs to the physical structure and exterior painting.  The scheduled maintenance window runs from September 14 to October 2, 2009. 

Work of this nature does tend to involve the use of scaffolding and large tarps.  However, the work is typically done in small sections in order to minimize the impact on guests.

Last week we reported on Disney's intention to close the Stormalong Bay pool complex in phases for rehab work in early 2009.  The information we were given suggested that the pool would be closed from January 5, 2009 until sometime in late March. 

The closure has since been added to Disney's official travel agent rehab bulletin, but that document suggests that work on the pool could continue as late as April 15, 2009.  

Maintenace schedules are always subject to change given that they can be dramatically impacted by weather conditions or a host of other uncontrollable factors.  What remains certain is that Disney has every intention of keeping the pool open to guests throughout the rehab period.  But spring visitors should expect some elements may be unavailable as late as mid-April while necessary maintenance work is completed.
