I know you're not saying this but for the benefit of anyone reading this in the future.. it's not a requirement that all of your contracts be in the same UY, it's just that most people just prefer it that way (as do I).
Last year we stayed at week at Port Orleans during the Disney+ sale (which had been repeated this year as well) after we ran out of points. Can’t beat $168/night for something that sleeps 5 and not far off from a DVC studio. The DVC cabins were on sale earlier for $300/night with is cheaper than owning there resale or
We’re the same as we’re are local and looking at SSR SAPs for this reason alone.
I think resort mugs in general aren’t worth it, especially when you have a full size fridge in the 1 bedrooms and can buy soda to bring. We actually invested in one of those refrigerator coolers that are actually refrigerators but small so we show up with a full cooler of cold soda. It’s paid for itself not to have to
WDI released a video with some behind the scenes footage of Lakeshore Lodge:
The villas are in the original Reflections concept art so I'm going to assume that they will be announced as part of future releases.
The Horse-Back Riding and Golf Carts in Fort Wilderness, The carriage rides at Port Orleans, and the Mickey Tie Dye Shirts at the pools are reasonbly priced keepsakes :)
I think this is one of those "if you have to ask" situations :D
Perhaps the blog writer isn't a fan of DVC :). That being said, I just don't see them not including a DVC component in any resort of the Lakeshore Lodge caliber given the fact that DVC prints money. The original Refelctions concept photos still has the villas in them, so I would assume those will be announced sooner or
They feel so long because they are long!, haha.. and I'm completely underwhelmed at the food options there as well. The Kidani pool and the parking garage is nice though, if you can find a good spot.
May 6th is probably a bit early for soft open given that it doesn't officially open until the 26th (but anything's possible). They have announced (but not given dates I believe) on the DVC/AP previews for RnR:Muppets. I hope by the second week of May something will be announced and open for you!
I can see them switching out for a murphy bed and being ok, not sure how they'd add a 5th sleeper spot, but we'd really appreciate the extra capacity in the studios. Right now we're forced to a 1BR (which, let's be honest, is a good place to be :)) and being able to book more nights with the same amount of points would
The first time I bought it, I did so while walking towards the Epcot lounge on a hot day and was able to get into quick as the membership showed up immediately on my profile.
The same thing I tell my wife when we check in to the 1br there :)
July - OKW for 10 days during the America 250th celebration
Does anyone know when the hard goods refurb on the schedule is going to kick off and complete? Is there any chance that the studios get a bump to 5 adult capacity if they add a murphy pull down and a console pull down?
We have bought three direct contracts. We never had a good experience with the "Welcome Home Stay". This most recent time a few months ago, (and I realize this is my fault), I rebooked a stay longer with the new points while there was availabilty before calling to trying to book a WHS. Well because I did this, I was no
We moved to North of Tampa in 2019 (from San Antonio) before the world closed for Covid (that was fun)... I know everyone's different, but I'd do it over again if I could.. although we bought a house in 2019 as well and I'm not sure what we could afford these days.
