Cost isn't an issue since enjoying the parks is the more important. 1) I know they're limited, but we're planning on being at the parks Sun-Wed+Fri (May 5-8+10) Is it more likely availability will not be an issue since they can't be reserved? 2) We're staying off-property (renting a house.) My...

Thanks for the input. You all convinced me. (And my family) We're going to plan the NCL cruise then 4-5 nights at Aulani. Day tripping wouldn't be that big of a deal to me IF the airport side was streamlined - where you didn't have go to the big airport and wait in the same long...

Thanks for the info. I looked up a few travel companies that also do 'day trips,' and I know it would be your whole day, but that would only be maybe 3-4 days of our 10 nights, and we'd want to come back to Aulani's space and comfort each night. True we could split up our stay, but my MIL...

Does anyone know if there are inter-island excusions available through Aulani? Are there any excursions that DVC members get a discount? We're looking to go next year, and my MIL wants to cruise for a week THEN stay at Aulani for 'a few days' after. She feels that the ship is the best way...

Thanks for the TR! You mentioned that the quilt and lamp. How much? That's the most important part. :goodvibes

Thanks for the replies! I'll give them a call and see what I find out.

I didn't see anything that said "1br" or "2br" or DVC. I did see an option for a "Parlor Suite" that has a 1br, but it doesn't say anything about a kitchen, just a small fridge. I'm looking specifically to book DVC accommodations at Aulani, and I thought that DVC inventory wasn't released...

When can (or should) I book an Aulani DVC 1BR with cash as a non-member? I know you can book WDW-DVC resorts through CRO (?) I want to say two months before reservation date.

Exactly. Who signed off on the bathroom sink being inside the kitchenette? That was OBVIOUSLY stupid, and it should never have been done. It just cost "someone" time and money to fix

Something else to think about: Availability. If you bank your Apr 2011 points on Nov 30th 2011, you would very likely not find any availability for December 2011 - at ANY resort. I would not recommend banking early (or much early, anyway) either. The pp answered the basic question, but I...

We've been to 2 non-DVC timeshare presentations. One was mediocre and the other was not bad. Didn't buy the mediocre one - wasn't interested, even though they said it's the largest single-location timeshare in Orlando (they say.) The salesperson was visibly unhappy that he had spent 3 hours...

And free Internet.

I love this. My MIL is the the same way, except she doesn't get up early. At home she stays up until 5-7am and get's up around 1-2p. On vacation, she'll get up early (9-10a) and be ready by 11-12p. But if we must be somewhere early, and she's running late, she's say "go one, and I'll cathc...

I agree. If they expanded F&W to include Sept., the lower points would make it a lot harder to get.

Are these "Club Cordial" resorts available to the post 3/20 resale purchasers?

Okay, so the beaches will be "full" and that's public, we understand that. What I am wondering is, what about the Aulani amenities (eg Water features, etc.) How is this going to be controlled? If I'm paying good money for Aulani, it would be disappointing if Marriott or *anybody* else were...

Just think. If someone before you had taken 5 mins. to get these things taken care of; your stay could have been better. Pay it forward.

This won't help with getting the discount on BLT or AHV, but if you just want to see the video. Search YouTube for Samantha Brown Disney Vacation Club.

I wish that DVC would allow you to WL a resort regardless of booking category. Ex.: BLT 1BR July 10-12 and not have to choose SV, LV or TPV. I mean look at AV and AHV, they have 4 booking categories. I'm not complaining; it's just a wish it was an option.
