I need help! Please explain to me about renting points. Which resorts or those?

[bcarson]

Let me say I have always stayed off site. Not this time But I am used to timeshare type accomodations. However, most of these have been given to me. So I am willing to stay at POP or Allstars. But am I understanding that you don't even get a fridge? I was wondering about the renting points and how that works. Or those places what you consider a timeshare and are they reasonably priced? I am looking at Dec 8-15 if that helps. Which ones are they to please. Any hlep would be appreciated. I just booked my travel so there is no turning back. I have to really get my butt in gear and get the rest of it as cheap as possible of course! Thanks.

Let me start by saying you can check out the DVC section and people have points for rent there you will also find a points chart and calculator. From what I have seen points rent out at anywhere from 9-12 dollars a point depending on the resort. If you stay at one of these through disney it is much more.

DVC loactions~
OKW~ Old Key West
SSR~ Saratoga Springs Resort
BWV~ Boardwalk Villas
BCV~ Beach Club Villas
VWL~ Villas at the Wilderness Lodge

Coming Soon AKLV~ Animal Kingdom Lodge Villas

This is from the points calculator for your dates.
12/8-15 BWV standard view studio 85pts
12/8-15BWV preferred view studio 104pts

Another thing that you might want to keep in mind is that you can get a family suite at ASMu that has a fridge and mic in it. You can also rent a fridge at the value resorts and if you check out the budget board they have several fridge swaps going on at the value resorts some even have mic and coffee makers. Moderate resorts have a fridge and coffee maker in the room.
