Selling Grand California Villas yet?

[lovedoggies]

We meant to stop by the DVC counter during our recent trip, but there was always a line, so we just never did.

Curious about the Grand California Villas that they are currently building. When do they go on sale? Or have they already? Do you know how much the points will be, or are?

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

They are not selling as of yet.

They will not begin selling DVC at the Grand Californian for a while.

The founding members option just means that if you buy now at AKL or SSR. from a California Guide (while visiting the Disneyland Resort) you will get first chance to buy add on points at the Grand. (about 2 weeks before other members) However, you have to be a new member to do this. So if you are already a member, and did not buy in California, you are out of luck.

However, there should be enough points avaliable after this 2 week period, to add on for any other interested members.

we live on the west coast so I dont really want to buy in florida. I'll just wait for the Grand California Villas to go on sale. Do you have any idea how much it will be? Are all the DVC points the same cost?

DVC points vary in price depending on the resort.

There's been no annoucement of actual price per point for the Grand Californian Villas, but for a minimum 160 point contract, I will make an estimate of around $17,000 (give or take).

Once they start selling the pts., will we be able to start to make ressies? I am planning on making one for fall of 2010 at the 7 mos. mark. So if they start sales late 2009, was wondering if I could also make a ressie?

No, reservations would not available as soon as sales begin. They would be begin sometime afterwards. When they do begin, they would most likely only be available to GCV owners and then to others afterwards.
