Has anyone managed to get a 2015 price for a studio in OKW with the free dining promotion? I'm hoping they're holding them back for a later release, rather than not being available at all under this promotion.

Really want OKW, but cannot justify the price of a one-bedroom for just the two of us.

TIA
 
Have you called them? I have seen people report that they've booked a studio for next year but not sure how they booked them - whether it was WDTC or not?

Yes, I was looking at prices for OKW deluxe studios for Oct 2015 (with dining) direct with Disney earlier today. What dates are you looking for?

I did notice that VH were only quoting for a few Disney hotels for next year though.
 
Wow, quick responses.... thanks.

I really hate phoning for quotes, I have the patience of a toddler with automated telephone systems and always feel like I'm going to get caught up in the moment and book something that was never in the plans.

I have emailled Florida4less and Complete Orlando - F4less haven't got availability for studios and CO are really cruel and don't work over the weekend, so not sure about them yet.

Last time we booked CO were a lot cheaper for us than WDTC.

We're going January (let's hope the weather isn't a repeat of this year!).

Maybe availability is different depending on the month, or maybe it's because we're not booking a flight (already sorted).

Which of the disney websites were you using (@LiquidSunshine)?
 

When I booked for August I was offered a studio direct with WDTC. They could be sold out or just have no availability for your dates :goodvibes

Disney's own travel company: http://www.disneyholidays.co.uk/walt-disney-world/

I have stuck in Hotel & Ticket from 1st January for 21 nights (just to see if OKW comes up) which it does!

What dates are you looking for in January?

I saw them as available when I booked. While I was on the site though it did change what was available a couple of times. I cleared my cookies and started again a couple of times and saw different availability at OKW so try that.
 
I was able to get a studio for OKW for July 2015 for 14 nights. WDTC were so easy to deal with when I phoned on Friday (not like other travel companies I have dealt with). I have decided to let it go as I think the 1 bedroom would better suit our needs. A lot of the travel agents don't do OKW although one said they could get it for me. I am still trying to decide exact dates as I don't know flight details as yet. I was impressed with WDTC and it's even a freephone number.
 
booked okw studio
oct 14th 2015 for 17 nights, free ddp, 21 days tickets, 3 adults
direct with WDTC-UK
£3779
 
Thanks for all the info - you guys are great.

Dope that I am, I forgot to include that the availability I was looking for needed to include the discount that OKW usually gets as part of the free dining promotion.

I have been able to get prices but they were crazy expensive in comparison to what we paid last time.

Looked again today at WDTC and Complete Orlando - no studio for our dates (27th Jan - 11 nights) at WDTC but CO now have a studio at a comparable price to some of those quoted on here. 25% increase on our 2013 prices, considering the exchange rate is quite a bit better now than then it's a bit more than I was hoping for but think we will go ahead and book as soon as I get paid!

Thanks again for your help.

PS Sorry it took so long to reply, Mum cracked her head (four staples, ouch) so no chance to check in on responses.
 
We've just got a studio at OKW with DDP and $200 voucher tonight. We are there from 25th September next year for 10 nights. All through WDTC. And all done over the internet, no phone calls required!

And it was all thanks to you DISers. We are very independent travellers and have never had DDP before, but the offer was just too good to miss.

We are staying there this year, same dates, and have rented points which has cost us £2160 just for accommodation. The next year's booking has cost us £2527 which includes £800 worth of park tickets, free dining and the $200 voucher. Oh, and there are three of us travelling.

An amendment to that price above: this year's studio is costing not over £2000 as I said, but $1500. Sorry, I'll blame the husband for giving me duff information!

We are looking at OKW for next year and I put the details into Virgin Holidays and it is letting us book a studio for 2 adults and 3 kids 12,9,6.
I thought OKW only allowed 2 adults and 2 kids with a baby into a studio. Does anyone know any different?

Just looked at Expedia etc for your dates, and nothing is coming up for OKW. Maybe give them a ring or drop them an email to see if they are holding back?!

But at least you have a quote from CO! :thumbsup2

Hope your mum is ok :)
 
I'm looking at the WDW site now and a studio at OKW is available in January with free dining. 4th to 18th January is £2,436 and with tickets as well which you need for free dining (for two adults) the total is £3,014.

They sleep 4 so im not sure why that has come up??? Perhaps because they are quite big they are allowing u a trundle bed.
How much have you been quoted for that with VH?

Husbands are great fall guys - especially when they don't read the DIS :goodvibes

That was a good price you've got.

Have tried different date combos and the studio availability is there but just not for the dates we need. I will psych myself up and give WDW a call, in the hope that they can work some of that Disney magic, but as you said CO is there.

Thanks for asking about Mum - she's on the mend, hopefully (until the next time....).

It seems to depend which dates and how many days are chosen - as we already have flights booked we're committed to exact dates. We'll work something out - if all else fails we'll have to switch resorts.

Anyhow, thanks to all of you who responded and tried to help, it's very much appreciated.

What dates have you got? I put in at least four different ones but only posted one example.

I have been a price of 6500 for 14 nights in feb, which is only about £150 more than the POR. It must just be a glitch in the system, I'm sure it won't let us book
