Hey!!! Congratulations on starting the new thread! Though I don't own there, I am--how shall I say this?--intimately familiar with the resort. I'll spread the word that there is a new owners' thread for DHHIR in other discussions. Best wishes for your page!

 

[badeacon]

Thank you for starting thread. Have PM'ed to add me as owner at HHI

 

[Simba's Mom]

We own 150 points there, specifically so we can go every Thanksgiving. However, since we usually stay 10-12 days we're probably going to need more points soon. Or we could stay in a studio, but after a 1 Bedroom, I'd rather not.

And regarding the 25 years, there were 2-3 CMs who were there for the entire 25 years.

 

[sleepydog25]

Breaking news! Jerome Smith, currently the general manager at DHHIR, is on the move! He will be the general manager for the new Star Wars Galactic Cruiser hotel. He'll be great in that new role!

 

[Judique]

Owner there - please add to the list.

Thank you for starting this thread! I'll be there this year at Thanksgiving in a Grand Villa - first time in this size villa at Hilton Head, but have been there too many times to count.

 

[quinnc19]

Me, too! I sold 3 contracts and half my points recently but kept my original HHI contract.

 

[sun_seekin]

Add me, please! We have a 200 point contract at DHHIR Thank you!

Since we are an owners group page, are there any requests for what else to include on Post 1 for our home resort?
*All people that PM or posted on this page as an owner has been updated on Post 2*

 

[iloveokw]

I can’t figure out how to PM you but we have two contacts for DDHIR. Just left there yesterday. Sad but happy to hear about Jerome’s new job. He is fantastic.

SamR just got this response on 5/16 while checking in at DHHIR:
"I checked into Disney's HHI Resort this afternoon. At check-in, the cast member said, "I have some good news. Disney Corporate just called us to tell us that the change in mask policy at Disney World extends to us here. You do not have to wear a mask outside when on property."

I will update this post if the policy changes.

 

[DonMacGregor]

I have a 200 point contract currently in ROFR.

I sent you a pm. We are owners at HH for the past 20 years. We are supposed to take a trip this year for Thanksgiving week but DH's health is not the best so it is up in the air right now. We love it there and hope to make a return to our home away from home soon.

My prayers for your DH. If it helps, I've always said that DHHIR has healing powers. One year I went to DHHIR for Thanksgiving 5 days after I fractured my pelvis. I remember the look of disbelief on my DH's face as I lay there in the emergency ward begging the doctor to let me go. But at the end of our stay, I was sure that I recovered so much more than I would have at home. Although I'll admit that the part of GETTING there was no picnic.

Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers. It has been a long road for him this passed year and Covid has not helped. We are super careful where we go and who we interact with. The thought of getting on a plane is quite daunting. Driving unfortunately is out of the question with his condition. But we are taking things one day at a time.
