Simple question

I am sorry you think Saratoga Springs and Old Key West don't have the Disney feel. We, on the other hand, think the opposite. It does have the Disney feel with all the hidden Mickeys and such. It is the best of both worlds, Disney and a relaxing laid back atmosphere!
We have loved all 13 years we have been members and plan to enjoy all the remaining years!!!

The difference 24 hours can make! We've narrowed our selection down to 5 options... 3 Saratoga and 2 Old Key West.

Now, the decision... our most likely Saratoga pick includes 450 points. This would guarantee at least 1 of our gaols would be realized... waking up in a Treehouse villa on Christmas day.

Our most likely OKW option includes 490 points. The only reason we would choose this is for the high point value.

There is another option if you don't want to limit yourself to one location. If you have two favorites consider getting half your points at SSR and half at another resort. In this way, you stay at one resort one year, and the other resort the next, and continue rotating. In the years you are not staying at a resort, you bank those points to the next year, where you will then have double the points for your reservation. Hope that makes sense.


Oh, and this is very important. It is highly adviseable NOT to purchase a single contract over 200 points. These are difficult to sell, sell for fewer $ per point, and leave you with only one option if your plans change (sell).

Multiple contracts in smaller amounts are far preferable. You can sell only some points, you can sell more easily and at a higher $ per point. If you want 400 points, I suggest 4 x 100 contracts or similar.

We are now the proud owners of 450 points at Saratoga Springs. Mission accomplished
