    Surprise trip to HHI

    I'm so excited...I just booked a surprise trip to HHI for fall break! We had looked into renting points/having them transferred to book the trip, but cash reservations were actually cheaper. We got a studio (which wasn't available on points this late in the game) for only $205 per night! Even...

    Question about renting points/having them transferred

    Thanks Evan, that is really helpful. So would the other person just contact DVC with my member number and transfer them that way?

    Question about renting points/having them transferred

    I have a question for you guys. What is the difference between renting points from someone (where they make the reservation through their account) and having them transfer the points to my account? What are the logistics of having them transfer points to our account? Do we have to have the...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    Thanks for reading! Actually, I think it would be an awesome place to come as a couple. There are kids everywhere, but if you love Disney you are used to that. It's such a relaxing and magical place. I honestly feel a tranquility the second we drive back on the resort after going to dinner...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    After dinner and Frosty Frog, we headed back to the resort for a pool party. They kept the water slide open super late, and all the summer interns threw a smashing dance party. It was my first DVC pool party, and I haven't had that much fun since college parties. The music was...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    Today way just plain awesome. Seriously...you know that feeling you get on vacation where you sit back and look around and think..."boy, it's doesn't get any better than this..." I had it multiple times today. We went to the beach this morning, where we dodged jellyfish for a while and played...

    Our inaugural trip with DVC: HHI...there right now!

    There are 3 quick service restaurants and one walk up bar with lots of frozen drinks. But HHI has amazing restaurants, and our 4 favorites are within 2 miles. Only time we have gotten in our car so far! Check out my full TR with pics...I'll post some pics of the restaurants for you tonight...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    Foreverbelle...we had to go on the waitlist, but after about a month it opened up. Now that we are here we see why...the place is incredibly small. And if you're trying to get a deluxe studio, there are so few of them! There are only 30 buildings with 4 suites each, and a lot of those...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    Besides the swimming options, they have a full assortment of fun activities for the kids to do. Most of them have been for kids older than ours (2 and 6), but we have just done them anyways and told them we would help the kids. Honestly, they were completely cool with that. The lifeguards...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    On to the awesome facilities. There are two pools at the resort...one right outside our building and the other at the beach house. The one closest to us has a waterslide, a hot tub, and a kiddie pool with little frogs that squirt water at the kids. McKenna, the 2 year old, actually has been...

    Becanya's HHI "boy did I need another vacation" trip report...

    I wanted to post a special trip report separate from my ongoing one because that is just how special Disney's HHI resort is turning out to be. Seriously, this place is amazing, and we are already on the waitlist for December points. Fourth on the list, unfortunately! We got here yesterday...

    Our inaugural trip with DVC: HHI...there right now!

    So we got to Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort yesterday around noon. This is our first trip since buying DVC at WL last fall. I can be a bit of a snob about hotel rooms...I have some serious germ phobias. But let me say, these rooms far exceed my expectations. They are beautiful, super...

    Becanya's Great Year of Celebrations Pre-Trip Report

    Thanks Hollybelle! And believe me, the only reason I stuck it out on the snorkeling was because there was peer pressure. After the shark thing I was totally hyperventilating. Craziness!

    How Old Were You When The Parents Kicked The Stroller To The Curb

    I have to agree with this. We have two kids...2 and 5 on the last trip. We never do a double stroller, but we do take two umbrella strollers that fold up tiny in our hotel room. The only time we use them are for our long days at the parks. This is the way I think of it personally. We get...

    When is your fall break?

    Does anyone on here have September fall breaks? We are taking our 2012 trip to the World in Sept...but I want to schedule before Fall Breaks start if possible. I know October is the biggest month for fall break...just wondering if there are any that are earlier than that.

    Best and Worst Restrooms in Magic Kingdom

    I realized that we usually keep our restroom breaks reserved for restaurant stops. Because we do deluxe dining, that's always a sit-down restaurant and none of the bathrooms are that gross in the table service restaurants. But this year we have a newly potty trained 3 year old, which means I...

    October Availability

    How does Wilderness Lodge look? We stay there and the boat ride to MK is way quicker than monorail. IMHO, WL is the most convenient resort on property.

    Becanya's Great Year of Celebrations Pre-Trip Report

    There are several reasons why I have better expectations for this trip. First...we are staying at a Disney property! Can't get any better than that, right? Second, we have been married long enough to finally figure out how we vacation together. Third, our kids have finally hit ages (DS 6, DD...
