None. I don't book single nights at DVC. I book lengths of stay, unpack and settle in. Then head home.

Vero Beach

Our contract came with banked points from the previous year. We booked a research trip to check out HH and VB (and a of course WDW). Loved Vero so much we are going back for over a week this coming August.

We booked one night at Treehouse Villas in 2010. It was the day before our cruise so we flew in just in case there was any weather delays. Other then that, never had another single night stay.

The only time I stayed 1 night was at BCV, an add-on to a business trip. BWV was soldout.

I must have asked it wrong.

It doesnt have to be a 1 night stay. I'm asking your 1 favorite night staying at dvc and where did it take place??!!

Simba's Mom · 04-14-2012, 09:29 AM

My favorite was when I was staying in a value studio at AKV and got lucky enough to get a view on the Sunset Savannah. Almost any night there was my favorite, since I didn't expect the savannah view, but probably when I got to see the most giraffes was my favorite night.

OKW - at DTD for the day and decided to stay the night. Called OKW directly (back before MS worked on Sundays) and checked in within 15 minutes.

We booked one night at BWV so we could play TSM. Then moved to Hard Rock to have front of the line access at Universal Studios

We booked Vero prior to our Dream cruise. So beautiful. Plus then it is a short drive to the port.

Back in 97 or 98 before buying in, booked a 2 bedroom promo at Hilton Head for one night on our way to WDW. Promo was $99 per night and a $25 gift card. So effective rate $74 for our night on the road. Fell in love and bought points! Four of us girls and everyone thought I was a genius when they saw the great room I got us! Then the Poly was almost a letdown after that......but not really!!!

We had the opportunity to pass through Orlando during a business trip and I needed my Disney fix. Three days before arriving, I decided to see what I might be able to get for a one night layover. My DH and I were able to get a 1BR Lakeview at BLT. I was excited to have a room, not terribly excited about BLT as I was sure I wouldn't like the decor theme. Boy was I surprised! We fell in love with BLT - decor and all. It was my favorite 1 night because it showed me I can still be surprised by the magic of Disney.

I had been with friends at AKV, then moved over to BWV where DH joined me. On the Sunday, he & I were driving to Port Everglades for a Princess cruise, so we had 1 night together. The entertainer for the Flower Power Concert was Chubby Checker, and he put on a great show!

Another 1 night stay was with the family & some friends after our 1st DCL family cruise. Again, we spent the time at a Flower Power Concert, The 5th Dimension! It was our DGC's first AKV stay, a dedicated 2 bedroom, savannah view, Kidani. They loved the whole experience!

DSis & I will be going to this year's F&G show on Wednesday. DS & family will again join us for just 1 night. It's great that they moved to FL, so when I'm at WDW, I can more easily see them. It was harder when they lived in Massachusetts!
