With the recent 'changes' that DVC is doing to curb commercialization a bit, I have been watching contracts thinking that resale prices may take a slight dip. Originally, we have been looking at SSR mainly due to cost. However, with AKL set to get a refurb later this year, and the price already...

We got 12 of us going this year from a few different families so it's going to be wild :) Open to thoughts on our trip and if it looks good or if you would tweak something: Resort: Port Orleans French Quarter (all of us via multiple rooms) Dates: 12/6 arrive (different times) and depart 12/14...

So we now have 12 folks planned for our trip later this year - my sister and her fam of 5, a family friend, my parents, my wife and I and my in-laws. Whew! I know you can't book for 12 on the Disney site (10 is max IIRC). Trying to figure out the best way to do this. Is doing seating for 5 (my...

Subject says it all :) We have stayed at FQ before and we really enjoyed it. There was really a few things in particular which focus around it's small size: The walk from the bus stop to a standard room in the far corner of the resort is not far - like a 5 or 6 minute walk if that. The...

We just got back from 3 nights at Universal and 5 nights at Disney Beach Club with 4 park days! Here is our trip report (for Disney part only)! Arrival Day 12/8: We checked out of Sapphire Falls right at about 11 and made our way over to Beach Club. We dropped luggage and made our way over to...

As subject says, staying at BWV for the first time (Studio) on 12/8 for 5 nights. Is there any neat things for the Holidays I should check out in the area? We will be hitting all four parks and probably go see some of the other resorts on 12/8 and their decorations, but as this is the first time...

Just posting that the Grinch Breakfast was released today. I couldn't find it on the Website but on the app: 1. Tap Extras. 2. Select Holidays 3. Select Grinch Breakfast.

So back in 2022 I tried to get Up Close with Rhinos at AK and I never once saw availability. The past few days, I have been checking (admittingly around 5 am or so) to see what availability ends up being like and I am still not seeing anything for 50-60 days out. Is this super hard to get? Is...

I remember when planning our trip in 2022 Disney was reserving some seating at resort-based restaurants for resort guests. Originally, I thought this was only for folks who were staying at that specific resort, ex. being if you want a better chance at getting Topolino's for dinner, you should...

Hopefully it is close!

The other day I posted about choosing AKL or BC. Welp, today I put in a request to David's DVC rental just to see what would happen, and what I got back was The Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian - Resort Studio - Lake/Lagoon View. I'm a tad shocked honestly but alas! Never stayed at VGF before...

Hey everyone! So currently we are booked for 12/9 - 12/13 for Disney (Universal beforehand) at AKL as part of the Free Dining promotion for Visa card holders. We would like to check into Disney 12/8 instead of 12/9, but I can't do that with the current promotion, I would have to book a second...

Just curious if you felt the OI event, specifically in December, was worth the cost? We plan to spend 3 nights at Universal starting 12/5 and while we will have park days that Friday and Saturday, thinking of adding OI as well to really get as much Universal in as we can until we transition to...

For some reason I was fully assuming that you could enter HS at4 PM similar to MVMCP. Just now saw that you can't enter until 7 PM with party starting at 8:30. 7 PM - 12:30 AM at roughly 180/pop (12/4 date) after taxes seems...nuts? What are your thoughts?

Have a small trip to Orlando for December (11/30 - 12/5 and first 3 nights are at Universal) and plan to do the holiday party at HS on 12/4, so we want to get to the Disney area when we check out of Universal on 12/3. I will first state that I want to budget/price two options, and the first...

We are considering an Orlando trip 11/30 - 12/5 and doing 2 Universal days on 12/1 and 12/2. I was hoping there would be some details about Mannheim Steamroller for this year but I can't find any. Any thoughts when that is finalized?

So on top of us possibly visiting WDW in December, there is a small change we are in Orlando Labor Day weekend (FSU vs LSU game). My wife has never been to SeaWorld Orlando and I haven't been since like the mid 90s. Would a day at Seaworld be enough?

Hey yall. Lord have mercy - I cannot believe I am seriously considering going on our 4th trip since 2019. I got bit - hard. I was shopping around for trip insurance as we are seriously considering renting DVC for this next one, and I believe I found a good one for cancel for any reason (mainly...

Scenario: Was looking at renting points 11/12 - 11/18. A particular company listed this as being $5,635 for the Riveria 1BR we were wanting, or about 933/night. I check Disney and that same week, the rate is 863 per night (excluding taxes) (searched for 5 nights compared to 6 due to...
