    Where to stay on HHI before checking in at DVC?

    Stayed at the Holiday Inn Oceanfront via Priceline.com for $25 the first night on HHI. It was Christmas night a few years ago. It is right at the water too. Good hotel, good sized rooms. Just remember there are no sure things with priceline.com, do your research before you go that route, if...

    I completed my BCV reservation today for six nights at the Beach Club Villas beginning Saturday December 20. Yes, I know I am using more points for a Saturday night stay, but what the hey, I had left over points banked into 2002-2003, so I see it as a free night....does it appear that I am...

    7 Month Christmas Reservation Window Question

    I assume that the best practice to get a reservation at one of the DVC resorts at Christmas would be to call each day at the beginning of the seven month window? Is that a best practice or would you suggest calling at the seventh month day of check out and getting the whole reservation at...

    Contemporary Lovers (Where are you)

    Having wanted to go to Disney World since I was younger, I finally got that opportunity to go in 1991. Only place I would even consider staying was in the Contemporary Tower. I had always wanted to stay there and be in the middle of it all. I had always wanted to see the monorail come in and...

    Boardwalk, then which other deluxe?

    I vote that you spend your other nights at the Contemporary. Really spurge and get a room in the tower and ask for a Magic Kingdom view. The view will be tremendous and you are just a quick monorail trip away from the Magic Kingdom. You will also have the lake to the rear of the hotel for a...

    Opinions please - Grand Villa vs. multiple rooms?

    I would vote to go with the Grand Villa. It is nicer to me that everyone can be together and share the experience. You have three bedrooms (two upstairs) that people can go to for some peace and quiet. The only sleeping area that could be in a bit of a quandry would be the person(s) sleeping...

    Simple (I hope) pool hopping question!

    The Lava Pool at the Poly is great. We went there this summer while staying at OKW. I called the desk to ask if they were allowing pool hopping that day and got a very pleasant person saying, "we would love to have you come over!!" Got there and it was a blast that day. Everyone had a good...

    HHI during MCI Golf

    I might add that the island is very busy and Harbourtown is congested for the Family Circle Tennis tournament too. A professional women's event that is held in the spring also. I don't know the exact date, but I have been there at the time and moving around in Harbourtown is TIGHT....
