I’m actually dying at how much better FCV is than Vista, it’s actually sending me 😂😂The fact we just had a little service desk to get parcels/ do anything

This is an awesome video! I love the detail behind it. Really captured the vibe of flamingo, and this is literally the only place you can find a full tour. Great video idea 💡

Thank you! So glad you found it helpful!

I hope Disney compensated you for this video because it’s a great tour! Also, my home (US) was built in 1890 and sometimes it feels like I have three total outlets within a two-story house so all this technology/port/charging access is making me jealous, along with all the storage. And I like the Sally Generic brand shampoo in the shower - love a guy who knows quality at a good price haha

This campus looks awesome. I'm not sure why some people say it isn't worth the money, that gym alone has better equipment than the one I pay $150+ a year for. I can't wait to start my CP in January.

I’m going to save this video to watch as something to look forward to! I just saw the length as well and, sitting in my room at 11:20pm, did a fist pump and said yeeesss out loud! Can’t wait to watch it!

I live(d) in east. West is more newer and a little quieter. East is busier. If you live at east, you won't be moving into an empty apartment. People will already be there when you move in.

Such a good video! Wow, we can't believe how amazing this housing is. Is there no shop like they used to have at The Commons? Will you show us the Flamingo Crossing Shopping bit, is that new too? can you walk there or do you need to get a bus? Keep the videos coming we love them! Ashley & Tom x

There is a walking path to the stores across the street, I walk there at least once a week and it’s about 10-15 min walk. It has a baby target, 5 below, Starbucks, pieology, five guys, and few other things coming later

Hi! Thank you so so much for your video! I'm doing Spring advantage 2024 and this video helped me so much. It was the best and most detailed tour I've seen! I have 2 questions for you, how far are East and West from each other? It's hard for me to understand lol. Second, how did you guys deal with the horrible Florida water? Water bottles or a Brita or something? Thanks so much again!

@StephensJournal 10 ай бұрын

Aw thank you so much Olivia and congrats on Spring Advantage! So East/West is about a 15 minute walk. It's like an L shape walk between the two, and all buses will run between the two as well. In the beginning, we bought Walgreen's multi-packs of water bottles like 12/24 packs, but then invested in a Brita that we kept in the fridge filled at all times!

I heard the ppl who has a disability most likely get more. I don't know if I have a disability or not but just wanted to know I really want 4x2 or 4x4

Hi! Disney sort a bank card for us, but I went to Partners Federal Credit Union which is a bank with Disney and set up a proper account with them. I then just ordered a sim online to be delivered to me and put it in and paid monthly to have data etc out there.

hello! the old housing has been sold to private companies and are now used as family living/private condos. they are not affiliated to disney anymore! Its solely flamingo crossings east/west villages.

I'm going to be part of the program January 9th! Is the gym usually empty? And are you sure its a 24hr gym?

@StephensJournal Жыл бұрын

It is indeed a 24/7 Gym. After a certain time of the evening you just have to scan your Flamingo Crossings card to enter the Community Centre, then everything in there (except the service desk) is 24 hour. (Vending machines, bathrooms, mail room, gym etc.). The gym is so big that usually seems quite empty, there is plenty of space for every thing!

I was doing this during the day and a lot of people would have been at work, it does get busy! This was right at the start too before all the Cultural Representatives where invited back to the states, so now, a year on, it has doubled in occupancy!
