Absolutely! Aside from building our home, DVC and the boat are the best *things* we've purchased. This next trip to WDW will push us well over the break even point for what we paid for DVC. We have 30+ years left to use it. I wish we would have bought sooner.
I know DVC is pushing the world wide destinations but from what I have read, they are difficult to get into. We got into a great resort in Cabo but that was when you could have more than 2 wait lists. I waited 6 possible weeks we could go and I think after 3 weeks, a match came through. I'd love to go to Spain or Italy but can't tell enough about the resorts with the photos that RCI provides.
I wish I would have bought DVC sooner as well. I want to add on at GFV (whenever that is done and officially announced) and GCV (gotta own a piece of the Mouse on the other coast).
Did you see they ended their plans to build in Maryland? I don't know if I'd use RCI for other destinations or just book and pay cash. My brother and SIL own a timeshare through Sheraton on Paradise Island. It's right by Atlantis. They've used their "points" for tons of other resorts and the W. I the W. And while I'd like to try Aulani, I'm far more interested in the Four Seasons Maui. I love Disney, but have a hard time imagining what a Disney resort stay with no prospects of visiting a park would be like. Silly, I know! LOL.
Are you planning on trying Vero or HHI in the future?
