Do the dvc rooms have a hair dyer and body wash/shampoo etc?

Yep.

 

[VGCgroupie]

I looked up how many GV there are and there are many more than I expected. 20. Does anyone know off hand how many are declared?

I cant believe I am in the position point wise to afford a GV for 5 nights and actually need it for our travel party size but it's not available.

Sorry 15-16 declared or total?

Well... I am looking out at the 11m mark.... so I am guessing 15-16 declared for the Ocean View

FWIW, all the GV's are on the end-cap of each tower.

Thats quite a few declared. The thing I looked at said 2 standard view and then there is the model so that is 3 right there.

This says that there are a total of 18 OV GV and 2 SV GV on the deed: https://*******.com/dvc-information/resort-information/dvc-room-inventory/

So, that’s at least 83 to 88% of the OV declared.

 

[AstroBlasters]

As another reference, it looks like there are 80 OV studios available past 11m vs 104 deeded. So that’s at 77% declared.

64 2BD OV vs 85 deeded. So that’s 75% declared.

So if you’re there for a week and don’t pay for extra trash/cleanjng etc/ if I bring my own trash bags is there a dumpster I just toss it into somewhere?

Housekeeping comes every day to empty trash. If you are running low on some supplies, you can leave a note near the biggest waste basket to ask for more. There are usually extra bags in the waste baskets and the trash room is marked on the door, often near the elevator.

Pretty sure they still do trash, they just dont clean up and switch towels but they do trash everyday or minimum every other day.

Thanks for some reason I thought they only did trash on day 4 or something.

Thats when you get a proper cleaning and towels.

It was that way for many years but now it is every day for trash but still towels on day 4 during a stay of less than 8 days.

Talk to me about September. Is September significantly less crowded than August? Points are much much lower.

Pivoting days to get your GV?

Seems so. Didn't want to go in Sept but if it's not as crowded that would be a nice bonus for not going on my desired dates. I had decided to switch weeks in August and then someone booked one of the days.

We haven’t been in Aug, but have in Sept and Oct. Resort doesn’t seem too crowded to me. I would think it’s a bit cooler too.
