Do you mean MS (Member Services)? If so, the answer is yes, you can reserve the day of arrival, as long as there are rooms available

Though not first hand experience, there have been posts of people being able to do so on the weekend with the resorts themselves.

Good luck and enjoy, let us know how the last minute availability is.

I've done it at least twice. (Vero & OKW)

And, if you decide to extend your stay after MS is closed, or even on the weekend, the front desk can help you with your point reservations, as well.

guys we got the grand villa this morning from MS.........they had the thing booked in like 15 minutes.........short notice was no issue and we faxed our grocery list and they arranged a limo to come get us all............awesome we leave tomorrow at 9 AM

And if MS will not be open prior to your visit, you can call the resort directly.

Wow

Grand Villa. For the weekend, on a last minute trip plan.

I am not surprised that you got the grand villa as much as curious of how many points this will take for the weekend and hw many is in your party. Do you have annual passes? Did you get any last minute plane passes? When you said limo, did you really mean stretchchchc limo?
