How would it work

[popisme]

I am looking to rent some points for my families vacation in October 2004 for a 10 day vacation. We are wanting a 2 bedroom villa and then a studio. Is that possible to get and is it possible to have them be near each other? We were considering a grand villa but with the cost and the very low availablity we were thinking that was not going to work. Please let me know so that I can better plan how many points I would need and in what form.


Thanks for any help you can give.

It is the 11 month window now so I would go over to the rent and trade board asap. The GV is very nice but you usually can't get one except at the 11 month window. It would be easier to get a 2 bed and a studio. You can't be sure they will be together, which may be a problem if you want them together. I would decide the number of points you need for both options and see if someone has that many points to rent. You then could take whichever works for you. The GV is much more expensive but it is worth the extra for large groups. We always stay in one and wouldn't have it any other way. Good luck with your rental.

Would it be possible to request that the rooms be close to each other understanding that it might not be possible (like at the other resorts) to have them be close to each other. I guess what I am trying to say is can the DVC member make a request like that when making the reservations.

Has anyone done this and had it work?

yes MS tries hard to please - so does the front desk - just asked that the reservations be linked - they will as close to get other as possible -

of course some of us want our relativies not close

Yes, we have asked for rooms to be close to each other, and they have always been in the same building. My concern is that for that many points at the 11 month booking window, it might be difficult to find someone ready to rent that many points this far out.

Which resort are you looking for? That might make a difference. OKW, BWV and SSR are the only ones with GV's and there can be quite a difference in the number of points (translate that to $) needed. Also how many weekend nights are you talking?
