I'm a relatively new DVC member since purchasing in August 2011 and can't thank this board enough for all the help and advice I've gained since then. This is my first post and hope that you can help?
We're from the UK and currently own 260 points at AKL. We usually visit WDW twice a year, normally for 14 night stays both times, once during the summer and then over Christmas/New Year. We love AKL but our favourite resort is BWV and in all honesty I think we purchased in haste as we were given a great deal on DCL. We were able to use our points last Christmas at the Boardwalk as member services booked us in as a favour as we only closed in September.
At the moment I have a reservation at Kidani for Christmas and I'm going to waitlist at 7 months for anything that I can get at BWV and hope for the best. We like to stay in a pool/garden view so I'm keeping fingers crossed.
I've read all the posts about selling points and rebuying but I'm so unsure as to whether this would be the best route for us to take. I think we'll always want to use out points for the Christmas trip and pay cash in summer and we really prefer the Boardwalk for access to Epcot at this time of the year.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance for the help
