Island Tower at Polynesian Villas & Bungalows

[CWTC]

In all of the news, any mention of when current PVB owners will be able to book the IT? Everything I can see is people who buy new points. And then when will booking open for non PVB current owners?

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Tower is the same as longhouses for a studio, but TPV category is roughly 25% higher than the newly renamed Preferred view, and 33-48% more than a standard view (UGH!)
• Duos are only about a 20% discount to full size studios.
• Preferred duos are significantly more points most nights than standard studio villas.
• One bedrooms are roughly 2X the rate of a studio
• Two bedroom villas are nearly 3X a studio, again, the highest premium I can recall (I might be forgetting something)

Honestly it’s AGGRESSIVE.

This reinforces my belief that Disney views the Poly and the Grand as dual-flagships rather than the Grand standing alone at the top of the heap.

It was already true that Poly 1 studios were priced higher than VGF studios during certain seasons, and that remains true for the 1BR and 2BR. The only part that feels really out of whack to me is the Theme Park view.

So if a family likes BLT, is BLT resale a better choice?

Yes!

It’s criminal. Disney charges like 10-15% more than the base rate for TPVs on cash, but since they know that our points are use em or lose em, they stuff as many as possible into premium views and force people to use them there.

Put me in the mindset of someone booking a tower Deluxe Studio instead of a resort Deluxe Studio for the same price.

Who is that for?

Two views in the DVC inventory are worth paying for, IMO... AKV Savanna and Aulani Ocean.

Someone who prefers the atmosphere/vibe at Poly vs GF?
