Rivera is no exception, with quite livable (by DVC standards) dining and living areas. Recent newly constructed DVC villas have much more adequate dining areas (and living areas) than you will find in many older DVC units except for Old Key West. THE DINING AREA IN ONE AND TWO BEDROOM VILLAS AT DISNEY’S RIVIERA RESORT Lower cabinets around the sink and dishwasher include cleaning gear. There’s more storage space in a cabinet above the refrigerator. The drawer under the range includes a baking sheet and broiler pan (not shown).Ĭabinets above the range include bowls, fun square plates, platters, and wineglasses.Ĭabinets above the sink include ovenware, cups and mugs, a toaster, and some open space to store food.

Note the range with microwave above, and dishwasher and coffeepot at the end.Īcross the space is the last major appliance, the refrigerator…įor those unfamiliar with DVC villas, they come with all the basic tools needed to prep, cook and serve meals. Most of the kitchen is on one side–with the fridge on the other. THE KITCHEN AREA IN ONE AND TWO BEDROOM VILLAS AT DISNEY’S RIVIERA RESORT Spin yourself about and you can see an overview of the rest of the kitchen dining living space in Rivera. Note the shelf on one side and coat rack on the other. In lock-off units, the shorter hall and absence of a second closet creates space in the Studio beyond for the Studio closet.īack to the entry to the kitchen dining living space in Disney’s Rivera Resort, this is the entry area shown from deeper in the room.

Lock-off units have a shorter hall here than dedicated units–see the floor plan at the top of the page.ĭedicated units have the shown longer hall, with this second entry closet, behind the door seen above on the left of the hall. The hall on the other side of the entry leads either to a connecting door, if a lock-off, or the second bedroom if a dedicated Two Bedroom Villa (above). Images of these are near the end of this page.

The doors on the left open to a large closet, and on the right to the washer-dryer. One side hall goes off to the bath shared by folks sleeping in the living area and those in the master bedroom. The entry to the kitchen dining living space in Rivera is T-shaped. I’ll note the one exception as we go through the entry. The combined living/kitchen/dining spaces in One and Two Bedroom Villas at Disney’s Riviera Resort are almost identical. (For the first page of this review of Disney’s Riviera Resort, click here.)
