Should I be interested in DVC?

With the loaded contract, we had 100 pts to use/lose/rent by Dec 1, so we spent 99 of them for a long-weekend in a 1BR Savanna View at Kidani ...

And the villa was AMAZING!!

The DD loved having her "own room", even though she had to sleep on the sleeper-sofa - and we literally had to drag her out of the whirlpool tub! And we had our own room with a King-sized bed (and shower to match ... LOL).

For our next week+ stay in November, we booked a Standard View 1BR at Jambo House (with the DD telling me "I want my own room again ... OK?" - so she's already spoiled!). For the longer stay, we think the convenience of Mara and Boma will make things a bit easier ...

I have a TR work-in-progrees in the DVC Trip report section (unfortunately, none of the links in my siggie will get you there). There's some pictures of Kidani, with more to come ...

We had seen some of the othert Deluxe and DVC resorts before buying in, but we toured a few more this past trip.

And after seeing those resorts - although they are nice - it just confirmed that AKV is something extra special. So any lingering doubts we had about buying a "second home" were obliterated ...

Now I just hope the DW and DD won't be disappointed when we go to Aulani in a couple of years and "only" stay in an Oceanview Studio ...
