I have a request with Interval International for a week at a Disney timeshare for next December. I wanted to see if anyone was ever lucky enough to get one through Interval, and if so, which timeshare?
I've gotten a couple of them, both 1BRs at OKW. One was a friday check-in for Memorial Day weekend, using an AC. The other was for week 8 (the week after P-week) that I just got via flexchange. I've also seen 1BRs for week 8 in SSR and VWL, but with 4 we wanted the extra space in OKW. There was a 2BR at OKW for week 8, but a Friday check-in, and I already had flights. 2BRs don't make it past ongoing searches very often---they are relatively rare except for the low-demad DVC times. You see a lot of them in September. A few of them pop up other times here and there. One of the big questions is whether your deposits will "see" Disney. It's not the hardest trade to get, but it's not easy. To figure this out, you'll need to compare what you see with what others see. Perhaps the best way to do that is to join timeshareforums.com They have a very active sightings board.
As long as you're going for the first two weeks of Dec chances are you will get it (if your exchange has enough trading power). It will most likely be OKW or SS as these are the largest of the DVC resorts. OKW would be my preference between these two. Actually OKW is one of my favorite DVC resorts.
OKW and SSR are the two that seem to come up the most often. I wouldn't expect to get BWV or VWL in that time frame. Lots of BWV owners use their points in the bginning of December.
got a studio at ssr, a studio at BCV, 1-bedroom at SSR as had been say - expect OKW or SSR- but who knows you might get lucky and get VWL - my favorite place in Dec!!!
