Okay...so, humor me...please??!!!

Hi, Beca!
Have yet to stay at BCV and am afraid to do so because I don't want to end up selling all of my points and buying new ones like someone I know!
Also, have toured SSR but not stayed there. For what it's worth, here are my priorities as of this minute:
BWV (Love the activity and BW view)
OKW (Love the room size and parking)
BCV (Beca loves it so it must be good!)
VWL (Lovely, but I get enough of dark decor and pine trees in MN)
SSR (OKW without the big rooms and the parking isn't as close)
Based on experience + conjecture.
 
I've stayed at all 5 on-site DVCs:
1. BCV
2. OKW
3. BWV
4. SSR
5. VWL
 
I'll do one for DH. Since his are different from mine, he should have a separate vote.
1. OKW
2. BCV
3. SSR
4. VWL
5. BWV

Actually, DH wanted to know if he could choose OKW as his #1-#5 choices, all of them, because if he had a choice, he'd really never stay anywhere else.

Yowza! If we can put in a vote for the spouse, Here's Madam Gracey's:

1) VWL
2) BCV
3) SSR
4) OKW
5) BWV

If we can't do the spouse thing.... well, then just ignore this post! :teeth:

Oh see, DH and I acutally agree on the whole DVC favorite topic. We don't always agree on everything, but DVC we are on the same page. :goodvibes

You know stuff like that makes or breaks marriages. :) DH and own at VWL, but our heart is at BCV. (not that VWL is bad, let's not go there. :rotfl: )
 


Hi Jean!!! Nice to see you!!! :love2:

Here's another update:

Total votes: 111

Here's the results:

1) BCV with 372 points (22.34% of available points)
2) BWV with 343 points (20.6% of available points)
3) OKW with 331 points (19.88% of available points)
4) VWL with 319.5 points (19.19% of available points)
5) SSR with 295.5 points (17.75% of available points)

Now, if we look at the percentage of people listing each resort as their first choice:

1) BCV - 30 people (27.03%) for a resort that is 11.49% of the available rooms
2) SSR -23 people (20.91%) for a resort that is 30.5% of the available rooms
3) OKW - 23 people (20.91%) for a resort that is 29.33% of the available rooms
4) BWV - 20 people (18.18%) for a resort that is 21.16% of the available rooms
5) VWL - 15 people (13.64%) for a resort that is 7.51% of the available rooms


I will keep tallying as long as people post.

1. SSR
2. BCV
3. VWL
4. OKW
5. BWV

P.S. I forgot why we're doing this poll! Did it come out of one of the SSR discussions? Beca, you're a good sport to tally all this up. :)
 
I question the honesty of the votes.

I see SSR getting many votes at the top (almost always from ssr owners), yet I see threads all over the board from ssr owners talking about wanting to stay else where. I don't think I have seen a bcv or bwv owner asking if a ssr waitlist will come thru.

then i see stuff like the following post in the SSR Love thread......

"I own SSR and do not have, nor will I have the desire to stay at either BCV or BWV. I'm sure to others they are lovely and I have never slammed anyone else's "home". However, I will inform you that I live on the southern coast of NC so the theme does not appeal to me. Nor do the linens used at BWV and the clown slide freaks me out. BCV has too much of a "beachy" feel for me. I see the ocean day in and day out and I see the same color schemes around here day after day. Now, after saying this I'll sound crazy, but I do love OKW the reasoning for this is b/c it is tropical. Where I live there are no palm trees so those really appeal to me. The Yacht and Beach club are themes reoccuring in this area."

then i do a search to see how the author voted in this thread and I see

#1 OKW
#2 BWV
#3 BCV
#4 VWL AND bringing up the rear.........
#5 SSR

I think and this is IMO only that what SSR owners "love" about SSR is 12 more years.

I am curious if every resort were put on the market today for the same price, and the same number of contract years, and you COULD NOT stay at other DVC's........... which DVC unit would be the most in demand?
 
Okay, this is not an update, but after one pm and several emails from people, I am "caving" and adding information to this poll. The comments I am getting are saying that the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th choices of resorts do not matter...I need to be telling the how many people choice what resort as thier first resort (as I have been doing), but also adding the last resort.

So, here's the new information:

Total votes: 111

Here's the results:

1) BCV with 372 points (22.34% of available points)
2) BWV with 343 points (20.6% of available points)
3) OKW with 331 points (19.88% of available points)
4) VWL with 319.5 points (19.19% of available points)
5) SSR with 295.5 points (17.75% of available points)

Now, if we look at the percentage of people listing each resort as their first choice:

1) BCV - 30 people (27.03%) for a resort that is 11.49% of the available rooms
2) SSR -23 people (20.91%) for a resort that is 30.5% of the available rooms
3) OKW - 23 people (20.91%) for a resort that is 29.33% of the available rooms
4) BWV - 20 people (18.18%) for a resort that is 21.16% of the available rooms
5) VWL - 15 people (13.64%) for a resort that is 7.51% of the available rooms

Now, if we look at the percentage of people listing each resort as their least favorite/last choice:

1) SSR - 38 people (34.23%) for a resort that is 30.5% of the available rooms
2) OKW -20 people (18.02%) for a resort that is 29.33% of the available rooms
3) BWV - 20 people (18.02%) for a resort that is 21.16% of the available rooms
4) VWL - 19 people (17.12%) for a resort that is 7.51% of the available rooms
5) BCV - 12 people (10.81%) for a resort that is 11.49% of the available rooms


I will keep tallying as long as people post.
