We own at SSR and had our first stay there last October. It was wonderful and we had a fantastic time. :goodvibes Our adoption of our daughter came through in January (adding number three to our brood) and now we are expecting another baby in September, :love: so it's been a busy year! Due to all the family changes, we opted to bank our points this year and wait until next year to try Disney again. Between banking and the points we'll have available, plus the fact we'd like to invite my parents again, we're trying to think about the option of renting a Grand Villa again.

We'd have enough points to stay at an OKW grand villa for the time we want (about 10 days) but the GVs at SSR cost considerably more. I wouldn't mind staying at KW *at all* I've heard lovely things about them. But I also want to be realistic....how hard is it to book a grand villa at OKW at the seven month window if we were looking to come sometime at the end of september/early october time frame? (07, not this year). Is there a possibility we can get a GV in the seven month window, or is that pretty much a pipe dream?

Thanks so much.....as you can see, I already can't wait to start planning for the next time around!

Just bumping since this board seems so busy! I'm sure someone more experienced than I has an answer. :goodvibes
 
If you are wanting early October, it may be tough since the F&W Festival may be underway then and that is a very popular time for DVC members. Early/mid September may provide a better chance for success.

It never hurts to call MS and see what you can get though. Regardless what opinions are shared here, the real answer will come from MS when you actually call. The dynamics of the DVC reservation system are such that situations change daily.

OKW has 27 GV's and they are a popular accommodation, in part due to the lower point costs. I'd definitely plan to call right at 7 months and plan for daily calls to fill your desired dates.

Good luck!
 
Good luck on getting what you want.
