Resort room discounts with DVC membership?

[Princesswanabee]

Does anyone know if there are DVC membership discounts on resort room rates when paying OOP and if so are they usually better than an AP discount rate? Thanks!

The only discounted rooms would be at DVC Resorts only and subject to availability. The discount is 25% off rack rate.

after 12.5% hotel and sales tax, it is really 12.5% total discount

No matter how you pay cash (member discount or CRO discount), you still will have to pay the tax. So it's still 25% off what you would pay CRO at full rate.

I've found that AP rates are usually better for studios. Usually 1 bedrooms and larger are cheaper with the 25% DVC discount.
