First DVC stay..Switching DVC resorts during stay, a few ???

[Threeh]

Hi all. This is my first "started"thread. Long time lurker.
My family joined DVC in the summer and have our first stay in January. I split the stay between SSR (3 night) with developer points and then 5 nights at BWV. We won't have a car so I'm going to have garden grocer deliver some breakfast and snack stuff, I don't plan on cooking actual meals. So my question is, should I do 2 deliveries from the grocer or just pack it up for the move from SSR to BWV??
Thanks in advance!!!

The hotel will arrange for your luggage to be transferred and you can just hop on a bus. If you're not talking about huge amounts of food, you could carry it with you on the bus. I wouldn't count on the bell services to transport your groceries since it may take a few hours to move your stuff over and perishables would be at risk. Also, if you have a studio, it's only a small fridge anyway so you might not have enough room to store a weeks worth of stuff.

Personally, I would place 2 orders and say it was $12 well spent. Enjoy your holiday. We're heading out on Friday!

another suggestion:
rent a car for a week, with pick-up/DO at the dolphin (alamo or national). use DME. with codes, you can get a compact for about $100 (we paid $86 total in may)

use the car for the two grocery trips, as well as if a few wish to go outlet shopping, DTD, etc.

we like having one for those unexpected medication needs, too

The hotel will transport your luggage and groceries for you but it may be easier just to take a taxi. This way you can make sure any perishables get placed in the refrigerator until your new room is ready.
