Coffee Drinkin' DVCers:

[MaxsDad]

I have a question about the Coffee makers in the full kitchens. I understand that you are given a "starter pack" at check-in. Would a starter pack last 4 days(@pot/day)? Also, same question for dishwasher and laundry detergent.
I also understand they will sell you more if you need it. I am thinking we may be better off bringing our own if that is the case. So,...

What kind of Coffee makers are they? Meaning, what find of filter does it use or is it one of those Pod types? Timers? At least two drinkers, maybe three.

Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure on the coffee, it was a full size coffee maker, but DH made the coffee so I'm not sure of the rest on it (I think it was enough for 1 pot of decaf and 1 pot of regular). There was enough dishwasher detergent for 2 loads and enough laundry powder for 2 loads. It's powder though, so I will be bringing my own in the future. I can't stand the powder detergent :lol: I think it would probably be cheaper in the long run to bring your own stuff than buying the starter packs.

if its a studio I believe those have only a 4 cup maker and you
get 4 packs of coffee for them..but only for 4 cups...
the 1 or 2 or grand villas prob have a bigger pot cause obviously
they sleep more.
The coffee is blah tasting at best..I always bring my own to brew..

We usually stay in a studio and we've had both size coffee makers, 4 cup and 12 cup. The starter packs are pre-measured coffee inside filters so all you have to do is drop it into the basket.
One of the things I bring from home is a package of coffee packed in its own filters; just like what you get at the resort. Maxwell House makes the product.

Of course, you can buy the same thing at the grocery store at your resort. It'll be a couple of bucks more, but it's there. I bring it from home because, the more things I pack that aren't making a return trip means more room in my luggage for souvenirs!

Not enough for 4 days- I always bring a can of coffee, filters and sugar packets. Then we get milk at the store there.
