I realize there is a DVC forum but most of the people on there are DVC members and I am looking for general opinions. I see many of you visit nearly every year, are you DVC members and if not why did you decide against it? On our last trip we met several DVC members that just raved about it so we started looking into it and I'm really torn. I understand the obvious pros (savings after a breakeven point, villas with kitchens, etc) and cons (money tied up that could be invested elsewhere, housekeeping, not eligible for other discounts like dining). But my biggest concern is just not liking the DVC options as much as we do the standard hotel rooms. Has this been an issue for anyone else? For example the Poly and GF do not offer DVC with guaranteed TPV. And the location of the DVC buildings at these resorts seem less desirable than the hotel rooms. And of course there's only studios at the Poly and as our kids get bigger we may need to book 2 rooms ( or the 1 bedroom villa at GF is double the points so not a lot of savings). Would love some input on those that were or are in our situation and what the deciding factor was for you to buy or not buy DVC.
