We would really love to stay in the Beach Club Villas next February. I know as a non-DVC member we can't make a reservation until 7 months prior. What are the odds of us getting a 1-Bedroom for the first week in February? Thanks experts.
There is no 7 month window for someone who is booking directly through Disney. I'm not sure exactly how they work it but I would just go ahead and try to book your trip whenever you are ready and see what happens. They have a variety of ways that get rooms to book, some come open closer to the date and some are available early on.
If you want to rent points from a member, then you have to find a BCV owner who will book it for you between 11-7 months. At the 7-month mark any DVC member can try to book the ressie for you.
I think your chances are probably pretty good since that is not a real school break time period.
