A few years back we coordinated a trip with 2 other families. The other two families (4 adults and 5 kids) shared an off-site Marriott condo. They drove to and from the parks each day. My family of 5 plus my sister stayed on-site. We met up with the other families in the parks and ate some meals together but not all. We planned 2 character meals together but we had the dining plan so had 1 sit down each day. We all had a great time even though we did not stay together in the same house/condo or even in the same hotel.

There are a few 3 bedroom timeshares out there including Marriott Imperial palms but even they may not provide enough room for 12. I think the resort company would also have a problem with that many people staying in a room (fire code). (I checked the site, up to 10 guests in the Imperial Palms 3 bedroom)

My Mystic Dunes 3br sleeps 12, but that is with four on the two sofabeds, one in the main part and the other in the lockoff, which sleeps four. I agree with others that say you need at least two units.

I don't see the issue, unless I'm missing something. We had 9 together on our last trip.

We stayed in a timeshare in Feb. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, 2 kitchens.

It was a 2-bedroom unit, that could be connected to a one-bedroom unit. Our daughter, her husband and their 2 babies in the one-bedroom unit. They had portable cribs, a living area, small kitchen and a full bath. They opened a door and walked into our area, the 2-bedroom unit. It had, of course, 2 bedrooms, a HUGE living area with plenty of seating and a full kitchen.

One bedroom was for me and my husband. Our older daughter and her partner had the other. Our teen daughter slept on the couch a few nights, and also slept on the double bed that was in our room-it had 2 double beds.

We had 3 rental cars between us. We all left each day for the same park, and toured semi-together. We kept splitting up and joining up again in the parks. At night, we all drove back to the condo when we were ready to go, and spent evenings discussing our days.

We ate breakfast in the condo, and had plenty of snacks and drinks there. The babies could sleep peacefully in their unit, and the rest of us could still talk in the other half.

We had problems with water leaking in our unit, but nothing that had to do with us having 9 people. The unit actually could technically sleep more.
