Just beginning to explore this option and I'm wondering what we might lose out on?
I priced a 7 night stay at Poly and it works out to $300 per night if we rent DVC points. Current rack rate is about $470.
If we rent DVC points, how will our experience be different than booking the "normal" way?
ADRs
FP+ booking in advance
Magical Express
Magic Bands
Buying park tickets - can they be packaged?
Free dining - I assume there is no chance of this with a DVC rental?
My thinking is that the number one thing we are losing is the potential for a discount - free dining, ticket discounts, etc.
The Pros are obvious - staying at a much nicer resort for much less. However, if there happens to be a 30% room discount, the per night rate is close to $300.
Thanks for your input!
