How did you get seriously interested in DVC?

[cruisehopeful]

We've only had 3 DVC stays so far, in this order...

Studio (BRV) - 6 nights
Studio (VGC) - 6 nights
1 Bedroom (BRV) - 7 nights

Our next stay is back in a studio (VGC) for 6 nights. We'll see if I'm less happy in there now that we've experienced a 1-bedroom!

I think it'll depend on how much time you actually spend in the room. For most of my life, I only showered and slept in the room. Nowadays, I will have a meal/snack or a chill out break. I think the biggest pull towards the one bedroom is the second bathroom. My family members spend a lot of time in the shower and on the toilet. The second bathroom makes a huge difference.

When i was younger I could care less about the room, but now the room matters, a lot.

The first couple times we were happy enough for the studio again... like in the way you react to tent camping after staying in a hotel. Everyone kept a "together we'll make it through" sort of attitude.
It was the stay at the 1 bedroom in Riviera that really did us in. My youngest tried to demand we don't give the room back, he wanted to move in.

To circle back from my other response, I think the darkness of the VGC studios is also what made me feel so much like ugh I need out of this tiny room to breathe.

Im willing to bet a dole whip you will be. I know you will still love it, since after all its VGC but it will feel different like you need to step outside to breathe or some feeling like that

For all other non-Disney travel, we're always just in a regular hotel room. So I'm hoping we won't be too bothered with it. But strangely, I think I will mostly miss having a washer/dryer.

We spend a decent amount of time in the room. We take our time in the morning, take an afternoon break for a couple hours, and we're usually back in the room by 8:30-9ish a lot of nights. We're just three people so we don't really "need" extra room. But it was definitely nice at BRV. Though it's just 1 toilet there. I'm looking forward to the 1-bedroom at VGC next year. I think that's when I'm definitely need to get more points for 1-bedroom each time. Funny how that seems to happen to most of us.

Its like going from a condo to a house
