Concierge Hotels booking fee?

[john storey]

Having just returned from 3 week WDW vacation, to say we are feeling a bit flat is a real understatement. Already thinking ahead to next year & fancy a road trip, staying in 2 or 3 different Concierge hotels. Question? if we book 3 different hotels (albeit booked at the same time as 1 booking) will we have to pay the 75 dollar booking fee for each hotel booked? Anyone got any experience of booking a similar type of holiday?

Booking fee? Never heard of one!

Ive recently booked the Polynesian concierge and there was no booking fee involved.

Are you calling CRO direct or using a Travel Agent???? Although, either way I have never paid a booking fee.

I've never paid a booking fee for a WDW concierge hotel either so can't help sorry

Sorry I didn't mean the concierge rooms in the Disney hotels, but the Conciege section in the Vacation Club, ie a road holiday around New England, California etc.

Moving this over to our DVC Board for you

Hi,
Bad news, as far I as know the fee is now $95 and I think it applies to each property you book as it is considered a seperate transaction each time. You might want to give member services a call or an e-mail to confirm this but thats my understanding.

My assumption is the same as mick's - the fee is for each trade, i.e. each hotel.

However, I've never actually tried this, so it just the way I interpret it.

Each trade $95 a trade so it pays to stay at one for a few days at least. We used to do CC trips a lot. Now we never do them. Too expensive to add an extra hundred to the high points necessary for the trade. I guess if I wanted to go to a resort very badly I would rent my points out and pay with cash. Much cheaper, and if you have to cancel no penalties. It's too bad about the Concierge Collection though. It seemed like such a nice perk in the beginning.
