    DVC DDP payment

    I'm sending a friend to WDW for days on my points (her mother just passed after a long Illness). She wants me to add DDP, which she will pay for. Can I still add it on the phone with member services, and she can pay & activate it when she arrives? Been years since I dealt with DDP-i seem to...

    Saratoga 5th sleeper

    Hi everyone! We are super looking forward to our trip in June! This is our family's first time staying in a 1BR at Saratoga Springs. I was just wondering how comfortable the 5th sleeper under the TV is? I'm only 5ft so I very much doubt my height will be a problem, but my little (but much...

    Best area at Saratoga Springs near polo/playground/laundry room?

    I’ll be staying with my 5 year old twins for 15 days at Saratoga Springs, and I know for sure I’ll need to do laudry twice. I noticed at the resort’s map that laudry rooms can be quite far from some buildings. Has anyone stayed in a building close enough to go back and forth to the room between...

    Step 4: Full Circle to Aulani – Unearthing the Rare Gem of Subsidized Contracts and Adding a Splash of Grandeur with VGC!

    After securing Saratoga Springs as our SAP haven, I stumbled upon an intriguing term: Aulani Subsidized Contracts. These are rare finds where Disney itself partially subsidizes your annual dues, making them a cost-effective choice for members. Fortune favored me in the winter of 2019 when I...

    Resort mug refill locations at Saratoga Springs WDW

    I’m staying at Saratoga Springs in March. I’m a big fan of getting the refillable resort mugs and plan to do it this time. My only concern is that Saratoga is a big resort, and I’m not sure exactly where mug refill stations may be. I’ve had issues with this at Old Key West — the only places to...

    Old Key West or Saratoga Springs - Buying Direct

    Hello, I'm looking to buy a 150 point contract direct. I'm torn between OKW and SSR. We would rarely stay in studios. Prefer one and two bedroom villas. We have a 5 year old and 2 year old. I'm leaning towards OKW because of the availability charts. With the 11 month window I feel like I...

    Saratoga Springs resort Question

    Hello, SS is our home resort since 2004, but we had a really bad experience there early on and have avoided staying there ever since. One example, we were one of three families (with young kids) that got off the boat from then Downtown Disney one night in a torrential downpour. The door to the...
