PVB Tower Charts, Sales Date and more!!!

[Philsfan77]

That's significantly more rooms (131) than the original declaration (40 units with a max of 50 rooms if all 2BR lockoffs were split). No new declaration have shown up since then. Guessing they want people staying at Island Tower so they can convince them to buy points.

Original declaration had (40 total units, if all ten 2BR lockoffs were splitthere were a potential for 50 rooms).

• 9 duos
• 14 dedicated studios
• 4 dedicated 1BRs
• 10 lockoff 2BRs
• 1 dedicated 2BR
• 1 penthouse preferred
• 1 penthouse dedicated.

If my math is correct, here is the extra available beyond the original declaration:

• 11 extra duos
• 43 more studios (depending on 2BR lockoff breakdown)
• 25 more 1BRs (again depending on the 2BR lockoff breakdown)
• 2 additional dedicated 2BRs.

I wonder how this compares to past resorts?

I know...I was shocked when I ran the DevTools on it for the last week of October 2025 (through the 26th) and saw that many listed for inventory, based on whats been reported thus far. My gut instinct here is that more has been declared based on current sales paces, and we will get that update soon from the people who put out those articles.

By comparison, 63 cabins have been declared at Fort Wilderness that has been reported, and thats exactly what shows on the site remaining for the cabins for October 2025 over that same week.

Would you guys do a TPV studio or a standard 1BR for a 1 night staycation in the tower for 3 people? . The TPV sounds nice to be able to watch the fireworks from the room and also saving 17 points but so does being able to see a 1BR since we've only ever stayed in the longhouses there. Giving it a shot as a prospective Poly tower buyer next year.. decisions decisions.

TPV studio. The 1 BR may be a parking lot view so it'll take you out of the Poly vibe and its not really giving you much more sleeping area. 3 people will fit comfortably in the studio. Especially for 1 night.

It’s all about the TPV at the Tower! Especially if it’s just 1 night - you won’t really be able to put the kitchen to good use. Save the 1/2br for a longer stay.

You might be onto something about another declaration coming. In the case of Riviera, they have roughly a million more points declared than @wdrl has documented in his monthly DVC sales data.

Original (only) Island Tower declaration was written (date in Disney's paperwork) for July 31. It was documented on the county website August 2nd.
Riviera's last one showed up on 10/25 (was dated 10/17 by Disney).

I just checked the comptroller website and still no new declarations by Disney showing on the comptroller website as of 2:40p Florida time.

Per CFW... The funny thing is that DVD can't seem to sell these to save their lives, but trying to book one of these at 7-months is getting very difficult

I was online a few mins early and also surprised by the availability. I was just trying to simply swap an old standard view studio to a tower one. Unfortunately one night was missing so I put in a waitlist and went to sleep as it was very late here.

I wake this morning and see there’s still some cheap duo studios left. I hadn’t expected that. It’s a solo trip and I’d needed to book a different stay with one time use points. Had I thought there would be duo studios left I could have saved the points.

Hopefully my waitlist comes through but I’m not hopeful. If I hadn’t been so tired I might have stayed up and tried to piece together the booking with just the one night waitlist but I just didn’t trust myself at that hour.

People like the charts but nobody likes the dues ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[mkatsy]

after what felt like an eternity of angst obsessing over this Tower project … I just popped in and picked up a Labor Day reservation because I could the calendar is wide open.

 

[GrumpyInPhilly]

Got a night in a 2BR Lock-off Standard view in April, it looked like there was some availability still.

Same here!

Inventory available in Oct 2025 includes forecasted declarations that are scheduled between now and then. The inventory available Oct 2025 is not necessarily the bookable/booked inventory of Dec 2024 (and almost certainly is not).

They forecast sales, then forecast declarations to stay above their most ambitious sales forecasts, and we can see indicators of the forecasted declarations in inventory online. Watch it every night for months (as I did with VDH/RIV previously) and you'll see some nights it jump up at 11m+7d, and then roughly 11m later there's a declaration filed.

Good information!!!

No more penthouses to declare so future declarations will either include more rooms in units or more units to reach the maximum 81 additional rooms in the inventory.

Would that likely be 1-3 declarations by October 2025? (Depending on size of future declarations to reach the 81 additional declared rooms)
First declaration was 666,819 points. Would that likely mean 1.3-1.7 million points declared by October 2025?

If sales exceed, they simply bump up inventory and declare earlier. If sales are slower, would they slow down adding rooms to inventory beyond October 2025?

I think there are two more Penthouses to declare, one for each view, right?

Anyway, as for what happens between now and October 2025, I'm not sure anyone grabbed the 'day 0' inventory of every month when phone booking first started (if you knew where to look, it was viewable online). So kinda hard to say for sure. And even if someone did, plans have apparently changed already.

While waiting on hold to book on the phone, I did grab a select few months for a few categories in the first few minutes (before other phone bookers could grab much). The 'day 0' inventory had a maximum of 8 rooms in inventory for December 2024 in category [redacted]. In early July 2025 it was 12. By late July it was 14. In mid-September it was still 14. Today, in Oct 2025 it's 20.

However, I'm pretty sure they have accelerated at least a portion of the forecasted declarations because today, for at least one date in August 2025, there's 17 rooms in bookable inventory, above the max (14) that was available in September 2025 during the 'day 0' inventory dump.

As for if sales exceed what the declaration can support, they'll need to declare more ahead of schedule (a schedule which already appears to have been adjusted upward) and that will likely show up as a glut of inventory suddenly appearing.

If sales are slower, they can hold inventory levels for an extended period of time (I see you, CFW), or if there's availability to support it, they could even clawback some of it from future bookable inventory and remove it from future declarations entirely (there were signs of this in VDH future inventory).

 

[disneylandtour]

It's up! Can't believe how much availibility there is!

Booked four days in May, duo standard, with OKW points.

 

[Einstein509]

I know we talked points charts already in this thread ad naseum, but seeing them on the website is unreal.

Tower 1BR SV is nearly equal to BLT 1BR TPV. Just stunning, wow.

This all the way! It's a great option for families that want more space than a studio can provide, but don't want to pay 1 or 2-bedroom prices with their points.

That is good information to know...I always was under the impression that even into the future, they only list what's been declared. Your explanation makes a ton of sense now.

Speaks volumes about where they think the Fort Wilderness Cabins are going, as that number still sits at 63, 11 months from now.

 

[Floridian From Afar]

18 room categories!!!

How long before each room in DVC will have it's own separate point chart?

I'm actually glad people are booking here. I don't personally see my family staying in these cabins so it basically just opens up more availability at 7 months at other resorts. It also gives people like you said an opportunity to save points and get larger accommodations if they're willing to sacrifice location.

That just screams desperation to me.

I moved from a Standard Studio to Tower Premium Duo for April 6 to 11, 15 extra points. Lagoon view, I’m always a sucker for a view.
