Can points be rented for Animal Kingdom?

[Gabby&Liv's Mommy]

Can points be rented for use at the Animal Kingdom? If so, can the be applied to the two or three bedroom suites? I don't see that on the points calculator.

Thanks,

You could rent points to use at AK, but you would be better off booking it with cash.

And you can not book 1 and 2 bedroom suites there on points.

I'm not sure if AKL has any 1 or 2 bedroom suites???? DO they?? Since AKL is not a DVC resort renting points to reserve there would cost a fortune. Can DVC points be used to rent there, yes. But the point differential is pretty large.Example...pool view in March would be Sun thru thurs 38 pts per night and a weekend would be 69 points per night. Thats for a standard room. Now compare that to the BWV studio......Sun thru Thurs 14 pts per night and weekend would be 29 points. So the week would be 123 for BWV to 328 pts. DVC wants owners to stay in one of the 5 resorts so they do not make it very appealing to go to any of the other Disney resorts at all.

Cash res is the only way to go. You would pay a fortune if you used DVC to book it on rental points.

Yes AKL does have suites, they are very very nice.
