Two years ago, when we were planning a trip with our son for a runDisney event, we decided to take the plunge. What if something went wrong? Can we still use Magical Express? Have Magic Bands? Make advanced dining reservations? Can I see the reservation in My Disney Experience? It just was a little too “unknown” for our comfort zone.īut the more we read about it, the more we were intrigued. We’d heard about renting points as a way to make staying at a deluxe resort more affordable, but frankly we were a little leery. In addition to studios which sleep 4 or 5, DVC resorts offer 1 or 2 bedrooms and even grand villas which sleep up to 12! Additionally, these villas have kitchens and washer/dryers so it’s truly like a home away from home. Our family has rented points twice through David’s Vacation Club Rentals, and we’ve LOVED how easy it can be! (DevoCab Disney has used The DVC Rental Store – be watching for reviews of his experience too!) If you’ve ever wondered if renting points may be right for you, keep reading!ĭiva Tip: If you have a large family, or are traveling with a group, renting points may be especially appealing. You can also rent directly from DVC members you may know or meet through various chat boards. There are various third-party brokers which will handle the transaction for you. When, for whatever reason, members don’t need the points they have for a certain year, they can choose to rent them to non-members. My husband has attended twice and earned a $100 gift card each time! You may even qualify for a Disney gift card and/or extra FastPasses to compensate you for your time in attending. You can sign up to attend a DVC informational workshop and take a tour. You can find a DVC booth at all the parks and deluxe resorts.

( Fancy Free Diva offers her insight on issues to consider if you are debating purchasing a DVC membership.)ĭiva Tip: If you are interested in learning more about DVC membership, I’d encourage you to speak with a DVC cast member.
You become a member by purchasing points, then use those points to book your room. If you’re not familiar with Disney Vacation Club, it can be a little intimidating. We’ve been checking deluxe resorts off our Disney Bucket list for a couple of years now, and it’s all thanks to renting DVC points. There may be a way to make your dreams come true! Disney Vacation Club offers marvelous accommodations at the deluxe resorts, and there’s a way you can enjoy those rooms WITHOUT being a DVC member. They offer tons of fun, all the perks of staying on property, and still let you manage to have some money left over for a Dole Whip or two!īut have you ever dreamed of staying in a deluxe resort? Ever wondered what it was like to stay on the monorail loop, or wake up gazing out over the savannah to see giraffes enjoying their breakfast? Have you longed to enjoy the famous lazy river at Stormalong Bay, but just knew it was out of your budget? If you’re on a budget, (and who isn’t?), you’ve probably chosen the value or possibly moderate resorts. Being in the “Disney Bubble” adds a huge dose of pixie dust to your trip. If you’ve ever stayed at a Walt Disney World Resort, you know how wonderous it is to be surrounded by the magic 24 hours a day while on vacation.
