I did notice the high rental demand for Poly. SAP makes sense. It’s a little odd that the three monorail resorts have all become SAP. BTW, why do you think the dues at the monorail resorts are relatively lower than the other properties?

Poly rack rate is very high compared to DVC rental. I haven’t seen Poly rooms below $500 regardless of season. I think because the three monorail resorts are part of a standard Disney hotel therefore they share monorail maintenance. The three DVC resorts don’t take a lot of footprints either.

I don't own BLT (almost did but backed away before the 10 days), but if I did own there I wouldn't use it as SAP points. I'd want the 11 month priority for standard rooms there. Then again I do have SSR points which we use for SAP. Do people use BLT for SAP?

BLT qualified as SAP but I use mine for standard one bedroom. It’s one of the best value one bedroom, it’s big, it’s on the monorail and it has two bathrooms.

Based on my analysis, Poly has become a SAP advantage over the other resorts due to Disney exercising ROFR of other resorts which have traditionally been better options for SAP. I think the reason Poly's prices are being suppressed right now is due to the speculation that Poly 2 will be a new Condo Association thereby locking out the current Poly's owners from the new tower. Some are selling their Poly in anticipation of the new tower and buying direct there. But based on my calculation Poly is better than other options.

Agree with Chia, SAP. Always at top of most economical resorts to buy in the report by board's sponsor. Dues are low and very easy to rent if want to.

Poly is extremely economical if you put full weight behind the 2066 expiration date. If you discount the benefits you'll receive when you're old (or dead), it doesn't quite maintain the clear advantage it appears to have over Saratoga or OKWe.

Exactly. We wanted poly, because that where we usually stay. Or AKL But the fact is we are 48/50 years old. I have never had a problem getting poly or AKV at 7 months, but if I did, have no problem staying elsewhere. But fact is I can buy SSR for a lot less and still have low dues. I am going to keep on trying AKL and SSR until I get one to go through. I got time. Already have fall trip and early 2023 booked so don’t need anything to clear until need to book fall 2023. So keep going disney… I will keep trying. If not I will rent until I can. I won’t pay $30-40 more per point for poly just to beat ROFR.

Why would you choose Saratoga over Poly though? Even if you exclude the expiration dates, both resorts have very similar MFs and both have plenty availability at 7 months. Is there a specific room type at SSR that is highly sought after? I can clearly see the reason for OKW's preferred rooms or the GVs. I'm just trying to understand better.

I would pick SSR over Poly due to the lack of 1 & 2 bedrooms. If I get stuck at my home resort and can't switch at 7 months, then I want more options than a studio.

that makes sense. thanks!

At the same price point? I wouldn't.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Separately, it's easier when your SAP home resort has a cheaper points chart than your target resort. If you want to book a week that's 150 points at your home resort and 180 points at your target resort, it's easier to book 150 at 11 months and then borrow to get to 180 at 7 months than it is to borrow to get to 180 at 11 months and then have 30 extra points on hand when you switch at 7 months.

SSR has a lot of room choices (Cheaper Studios, 1&2 BR villas, Treehouses, GVs that are bigger and cheaper to book than a bungalow). Plus I'm not a spring chicken. So 2054 expiration is more than enough.

WOW!
This would be great if I was wanting to unload some of my SSR contracts, but I'm still in the clutches of the addonitis monster, hoping for a small June BCV to drop from the sky, unnoticed!
