We have rented points through David's a couple times, and we have nothing but good experiences. I am currently trying to rent points for a split stay this summer (Boardwalk/Poly), and I am on the wait list for points to come available for the Poly stay. I've been waiting a cople weeks, and I...

Thanks for all the good information. I'm sure this will add to our enjoyment of the trip. No matter how many times I go, there is always something new to experience or a new "hack" to make the trip better.

Do refillable mugs work if you switch resorts? Do they move you bags from room to room, or is it Bell Services to Bell Services?

Wow. I can't believe I've never heard of club level. I guess I've never shopped for a deluxe resort on the Disney site, and it looks like that isn't an option when renting points. I made the mistake of including my wife in the reaserch last night, and she, of course, wants to do it. We were...

My family of 5 has stayed the Poly 4 times now, and we love it. Everything about it fit us and our preferences. We book through David's, and it works out great. We plan to stay there every summer. The kids are now 17,15,and 12, and are WDW veterans. I still would like to find ways to give...

My family just completed just completed our first trip as AP holders. I have three kids from 11 to 16 that saved though covid to buy their own APs. We like to teach them about being responsible with their finances, so at WDW, we give them independence to purchase their own merch and snacks...

Last week, we were at the Pandora "rope" at open. There were maybe 50 people who can claim to be be in front of us. Still people were steadily trying to squeeze their way to the front as we stood there. The 5 of us got shoulder-to-shoulder as the cast members escorted the crowd through...

How do DVC members check availability? Is it similar to David's where a middle-person has to check dates individually, or is it more transparent for members?

We would likely be spending most, if not all of our points in the summer. The last two summers, we booked through David's within a 7 month window. We stayed a Moorea house both times, and it felt pretty empty each time. We love the Poly for numerous reasons. It's a perfect fit for my family...

My family of 5 has rented DVC points from David's the last couple year at the Poly, and it has worked out great for us. Every couple years, I dip my toe into researching the DVC. It's a pretty complicated if you really want to understand how it works. It doesn't take long to see the DVC...

I am planning on buying APs on the 20th, but our trip isn’t until July. When you buy an AP, does the clock start immediately, or can you choose your start date? We already are booked for the Poly. My kids had all saved up for an AP before Covid, and have been waiting for it to be available...

We will be staying 10 days. Everyone was excited about getting MB, and the kids are getting old enough to earn some independence. So, if they want to run grab a churro, I won’t have to wait in line with them or dig out some other form of payment. Thanks for the info. I’ll just clear...

We've been 5 or so times since the introduction of magicbands, but I've never bothered to try to use them as payment. I was mainly under the impression that they were just tied to a CC that your have to put on file at the resort. We always have redemption cards and gift cards, so we just use...

Thanks for responding. I’ll try to add it as a payment method on the app.

We’ve been using the points at WDW for over 10 years, and we have $2000 for our trip this month. Today, I preordered our magic bands, and there wasn’t an option to use points. I didn’t see the option when I booked our character breakfast a couple months ago. I’m getting concerned that we...

I've been trying to book online every day for between July 11-19, and it just says "no times available". I've tried other dates and only 1 guest, and I can't get it to even show me any availability any time.

Trying to book now for July, and I can't find anything available at any time or day. Surely they didn't all book up that fast.

We are booked for July at the Poly, and I've been wanting to hear some first hand experiences of how people maximized their experiences with or without Genie+. Frankly, I haven't seen much here about strategies since Christmas. It seems like the 30 minute early entry rope drop is a great way...

It seems as though the Villas were recently renovated to include the Murphy beds instead of the sofa beds. Is this correct?
