CCV Direct or More Resale (CCV or SSR)

[Brian Noble]

Too much sugar for a dime. That's a lot of work for a benefit that is both marginal and hypothetical.

I know of one duck that would disagree...

The Mouse would also disagree. But the Mouse and I have an adversarial relationship when it comes to money.

Alright. I am tempted to change my spring break plans from 4 nights at BWV in a 1 BR and 4 nights at VB in a 1 BR to 8 nights in a 1 BR at SSR. Give SSR a real test drive. Or, could split the baby, keep my BWV and switch out VB to SSR. That might be the better move. Test out how I feel about walking to Epcot/HS followed immediately by the SSR bus loop and see just how much I value that park proximity.

I don't know about you but we have much more energy up front as we are excited to be back and then we relax more on the later portion of our trip.

If you are like us you might want to reverse it to start with busses at SSR to see how it really is when you want to get to a certain park and then end with a nice stroll or boat ride back to BWV at the end of an evening.

Not a bad idea, but I think BWV would be pretty tough to change at this point. Looks like a few days available Easter week in a 1 BR, but would have to waitlist.

I know, I know, it is sort of crazy. There are a few other reasons I have thought about for switching - biggest one is that there is a possibility DW is going to have to fly back before the weekend for work, leaving me to corral the kids on my own (she's a nurse and it's her weekend to work, and hasn't been able to find a switch yet). I think I'd rather do that at WDW than the beach. Still, can't argue with the fact that I'd rather be at the beach than looking at a SSR fountain from my balcony.

Do you normally rent a car? You will have to if you are leaving things as they are with VB. If you already have the car you might as well use it for SSR too to make things a little easier if you do decide to do the switch.

Don’t forget you can walk into the DVC office whenever you want and buy more points at Saratoga and then drive away on a surrey bike to celebrate!

We do normally rent a car. Have been thinking about trying a car service for one of our trips since we don't really use the car very much, but that might be a nice reason to keep it.

Honestly, one think I really liked about our 1 night stay at SSR this past weekend was being able to park so close to the room. When we checked out of our CCV 1 BR, instead of letting bell services do the work, I took all our suitcases to our car and then we drove to SSR. Loading at WL was much more difficult than unloading and loading at SSR.
