Yes, those premier season points are very high.
We're thinking of doing something very similar. Buying a (relatively) small BWV contract resale to give us enough points for 5 nights in a 1 bdr, 2 years out of every 3 (most likely, it will always be July for us - so hot but no choice). So we need (approx) an 80 point contract.
I agree that BWV is the way to go as you have a great shot at the 'standard' view if it's your home resort.
I've already contacted The Timeshare Store. I'm impressed by their response and efficiency.
May I ask, how do you find the contrast between offsite and onsite? I see in your sig you do both. We're thinking of 10 days off and 5 days on. Up to now, both our trips have been onsite only. Thanks.
mrs-mac, so sorry to hear about your separation. 
I wish you luck in selling your contract. Sorry it has come to this though. 
Hi Deb,
One thing about the Boardwalk, we stayed there last year, was that the standard view we had was very nice so we don't feel compelled to go 'preferred'. Having viewed the SSR last August we really liked it there, but prefer the location of BWV.
Our accomodation plans are complicated in some ways, Joshua is autistic so hotels over the last few years have been a non-starter as we really prefer privacy, cooking facilities and that extra room - relaxation is a big part of our holiday.
Villa's will always be our 1st choice, Josh is so at home in one plus he loves water so having that private pool is important too.
More recently on our holidays , whilst in some ways it's against what's best for Josh we have really felt the need to vary things more, and no longer want to stay in a villa for the whole holiday, especially as we go for 3 weeks now.
Over the years we have travelled around Florida and not just been based in Orlando, however recently for his needs we haven't travelled as much. Next year we are going back to Fort Lauderdale for 3 nights.
Last year's we didn't really enjoy, for a variety of reasons, I had a car crash 3 days before we left, Josh and Julie didn't like the stifling summer heat at all and I also had a fall at Magic Kingdom near the Pirates ride. 3 ADRs were cancelled too, tried to go for breakfast at a couple of off site restaurants but Josh just got very upset, so we figured best to cancel the ADRs.
Also we stayed for 17 nights in a villa, out of the 21 nights, but once it gets to 4pm in the afternoon Josh really doesn't like to go out - once he had his tea , he is happy to watch DVDs or videos and play with some toys or in the pool etc
Hence after a while the evenings became a bit dull, I didn't feel like going out on my own and was restricted to the odd drink at the bar at the Outback restaurant whilst waiting for our take-out!
We never go out at home at all really, and I cannot remember the last time I had a drink in a pub, just on holiday I like to 'pose', nice Tommy Bahama silk shirt, nice shorts and go out once in a while.
Staying somewhere else other than a villa gives us the best of everything, we have booked a villa for Easter 2008 and will stay there for 12 nights at the end of the holiday. Just feel it's a nice balance staying 4 or 5 nights at a DVC resort too, especially as you get the facilities of BWV and BCV (I love the ESPN bar).
So yes, I think it works very well, I wouldn't consider staying 'on-site' for all or most of the holiday though, mainly because we do not visit the parks each day and like to relax, do some shopping , go to the beach etc too.
Familiarity is a big thing for Joshua, he likes the comfort of a villa and doesn't take too well to changes and doing different things, we cannot even get him to go in a restaurant without him getting upset, so you can appreciate we have had to think long and hard about buying into DVC.
. Its very sad that we are selling but this is due to DH and myself separating, going to keep our fingers crossed that we hear something soon. They seem a very friendly bunch of people to deal with
