quick question about free dining

[SIMBA&NEMO]

Can people who stay at one of the villas participate in the free dining or is it only value/mod/deluxe (not campsites or villas)???

The promotion is available for a certain number of rooms at each resort. It is not available for DVC members or their renters, since they're not puchasing a vacation package from Disney. FWIR, there isn't any availability for the promotion in suites at any of the resorts, so I'd figure that would carry over to the 1BR and 2BR villas, even if booked for cash. Not sure about that though.

It is also available for villas (if you are not DVC or renting), I have free dining 8 nights OKW 9/30 - 10/8.

What size villa? Studio?

Last year my family booked a 1 bedroom villa at the Boardwalk Villas with the free dining plan without any difficulty. I would assume that they would be available this year as well.

Here is the thing my dad is giving us a week anywhere thru interval international which also lists disney's villas as where you can stay. So i picked either boardwalk or beach club. I wasnt sure about the dining because technically it is not on dvc points that i am getting the room. TIA for any help

I just booked a 2-bedroom villa at Saratoga Springs with the Free Dining package.

So they're not doing the "no free dining with suites" thing any longer? Interesting.

Simba: You definitely cannot get free dining with a II exchange.

I assume they won't let you get it with any suite but the villas are not consider suites. Several people were told they couldn't get it at the new family suites and I remember reading on another board that someone there couldn't get it in the Princess Suite at the Poly either. So I think suites and villas are different.

"Villas are not considered suites..." Hmmm... I don't think that's it. The 1BR and 2BR villas have been considered suites before. I think what we're seeing is the impact of overbuilding of SSR -- I think they've built SSR far faster than they've been able to sell it...

Can I get the free dining with a stay in a VWL studio booked through member services but with the cash discount not using points? (same with BCV studio)

2 bdrm villa, OKW, but you can get the free dining at any villa, there are no restrictions & seemingly plenty of availability.

Probably not. You didn't pay rack rate.

The DVC villas are villas. They are not suites. Suites are suites.

Suites at Deluxe resorts, CSR, and ASMu dont offer free dining. Same thing with campsites at FW.
