BWV Boardwalk View Sold Out December 14th?

[ABJrGuy]

Does anyone know why the Boardwalk View villas at BWV are "sold-out" for December 14, 2026? Shouldn't that not occur until tomorrow? Is there something special happening next December on that day? Does DVC have the right to block rooms that are otherwise available?

Because everyone who has the 13th booked has also booked the 14th. You can book 11 months out but can reserve a week following that first night. So if I had booked a BW View studio this morning for Dec 13th, I could book additional nights out until the 26th.

As @Willow Ufgood was stating you can book for 7 days at 11 months so someone may already have your days booked.

If someone was booking a 14 night stay they could then add 1 night at a time for the rest of the trip before your date even shows.

If I was checking in on 12/7/26 and checking out on 12/21/26 I would follow the booking pattern below and have my room secured for the length of stay on 1/14/2026.

1/7/2026 Book the first 7 nights (12/7 - 12/14)
1/8/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/15)
1/9/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/16)
1/10/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/17)
1/11/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/18)
1/12/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/19)
1/13/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/20)
1/14/2026 Add a night (12/7 - 12/21)

December is a very high demand time for rooms, particularly for BWV resort or boardwalk view studios (and 2BRs which can disappear with studio reservations). That members can make multiple-day reservations extending beyond the 11-month-out date is one factor that can lead to fills of a date before 11-months out. But there is a likely second reason for why Dec 14 is already gone: no one is checking out on that date. If any members are checking out on that date, the rooms they are in would be shown today as open for Dec 14.
