Just thought I would try to get some opinions on taking friends and family with you to your timeshare. My husband and I own at BWV and bought with the intention of taking friends and family. We are going in January with my parents and brother, wife and 2 boys (4 and 18mths). We are not asking anything for the room. However we are planning another trip in September of next year and are taking about 4 families that are all friends. I had an idea that I ran by my husband and he thought it would work, but I would like some other opinions on this from DVC owners. I thought about telling the families that I would get them a studio at BWV or OKW depending on where we stay and let them pay us $50 a night. We always go from Sun to Friday, which is 5 nights at $250. I think this is fare and here is the reason I feel it might be best to do. We took a big group of friends and family in Oct last year and I had 6 rooms. I did not charge anyone anything and the entire time people were trying to give us money and were right there trying to all be with us. This is not what we wanted. It is our vacation too and as much as I love to hang out with them my husband and I wanted time on our own too. It felt like they all felt they owed us for the room and all.
Do you think this would work for the upcoming trip? I do not want to charge my parents and brothers family for Jan, but think that this might be best for Oct. Please give me your input. I do not think that $250 is bad for 5 nights at the resorts and too I try to cook for all that go with me at least once a day for either breakfast or supper. I love to cook!! When we went in Oct last year we hardly ate out at all!! It was so much fun!!!
Thanks for your input!!!! Don't you just love Disney!!!
