Hi everyone,
I’ve been waiting to purchase DVC just waiting for the right contract but reading posts on the boards is making me second guess this. I was really interested in DVC for being able to stay at the deluxe resorts that I could never afford to pay out of pocket for each trip. However, I feel like I keep seeing posts of owners complaining that the DVC rooms don’t actually feel deluxe (I know they aren’t all technically categorized as “deluxe”) but is this true? Are the DVC rooms at these resorts less deluxe feeling than the regular rooms at the DVC resorts? If this is the case I’d rather just save the money and keep booking at AKL out of pocket and mixing moderate stays in in between.
Thanks!
I would suggest that the next time you go to Disney that you go to the resorts you are interested in and ask at the reception if you could see some of the DVC rooms. IMO Studio's are like a typical hotel room. 1 Bedrooms and above is where you notice the difference. Typically the space you have is similar to 2 hotel rooms and with a two bedroom is similar to 3 hotel rooms. If you have a family you really appreciate the extra space. The bigger rooms are more like apartments. There is also a big difference in the quality of rooms at resorts. IMO I wouldn't classify some of the older resorts as Deluxe... but I would put VGF, VGC and BLT in this category.
