We bought BLT in Jan 2009 before it opened. We've loved the 1BRs for the size, the windows and the off-center MK views. We also love the short walk to the MK and the monorail access to other resorts. Ironically when we first bought, BLT was a "high points" stay for us. But since our other (newer) favorites are now Rivi
We stayed at Riviera in Oct 2024 expecting it to be a one-and-done for us. We had walked through the lobby and public places and were underwhelmed. It knocked our socks off, and we added on for the first time since our original purchase in 2009!
After 17 1/2 years as DVC Members (BLT since 2009 and RR since 2024), we bought VGF resale after spending 5 nights in a 1BR this January. It was a top 3 DVC stay for us! Can't wait to go back. We're considering next September: low points and low crowds, plus air conditioned monorail to offset the heat. We love Riviera,
Can confirm. Recent case of addonitis. Our first resale contract after 17 1/2 years as owners. Kicking ourselves for not buying it a few years back when it was a good deal...

We took a Jan trip this year (end of the month) and we both have 80-year old mothers. We realized we dodged a bullet by being able to take the trip. We would've had no backup
Hoping for something similar. We didn't find a loaded, but it is "full" and much larger...and $19 more pp.
@TheROFRMonster wrong! You took our VGF contract on 6/10. That's okay...I talked hubby into a larger contract 🤞🏼
Well, I got my answer. They bought it 😭 Now I have to decide what to do next.
It has changed for us a lot over the years. We bought 300 points in Jan 2009 when we were first married. We had kids shortly after (2010 and 2012), but hubs was still active duty military, so 300 points was about as much as we could use with regularity. At times I regretted purchasing DVC (or at least the 300 points) b
