I am not sure about the relative sizes but I looked very carefully at the various water villa types and compared them with our experience of the DWV before deciding upon the best room for our next trip. Unless the photos are very artfully contrived there seems to be little effective difference in room dimensions (although the bathroom may be a little smaller this was not enormously usable space in the DWV).

I couldn't really justify the additional cost of the DWV based on my understanding of relative sizes and our last DWV experience and was highly reluctant to pay over c. $500 a night extra for the RWV which looks significantly larger but where most of the extra space is taken up by a useless treatment room (I would prefer to have my treatments in the Spa rather than my own room).
