Mousekeeping Charges

[lilvinny]

Hi All. I am new to dvc ownership and was wondering about daily mousekeeping charges. I read that it isn't a daily service. If anyone has used this service I would love to find out costs.

While not having daily housekeeping seems odd to most of us when we first buy into DVC, most members prefer not to have daily service after their first trip home. We don't have to worry about being out of the room so i can be serviced.

We usually stay for 10 plus days at a time, and I can tell you I do just fine with the free services provided. The trash and towel day and one full cleaning are more than enough for us. In fact, we have been known to hang a do not disturb sign out on T&T day and just throw our own towels in the washer and make a trip to the trash room. It is so worth it to me to not have folks rumaging around in "my" home when I'm not there.

Question about how you pay for this? I gave a reservation for 5 nts at AKV to my sister and her family. They'll be staying June 1-6. If I wanted to buy housekeeping service for 2 days for them, can I pre-pay that?

Thank you for the speedy reply. Thats great to know. I did not get my password for the dvc site yet. So I was unsure. Thanks again

I don't think so, as Member Services reservation system, unlike the regular Disney system, is not equipped to handle cash deposits or pre-payments.
