I believe somewhere on the boards is a link for researching renting points. I found it very easy to do and cost wise for us to stay at AKL in a Savanah view deluxe studio it was much cheaper. Yes we could have stayed at POFQ which we do really like, but this might be our last trip for a few years and AKL is home for us. We love it so much. So just as an idea...
We are staying 8 nights Oct. 18-26 in a DVC deluxe studio at AKL (I think it's at Kidani but am not sure yet).
our cost with renting points $1742
if we had booked the same through Disney it would have been $4272 and to book a traditional Sav. view with Disney non DVC it would have been $3807. Even with say a 30% , the traditional Sav. view would cost $2665 and the DVC room would have cost $2990.
If a discount does come out, the last few have had a lower discount for POFQ (we can't stand CB and while we have enjoyed Coronado, it's just too spread out and we did not like the busing there). So a garden view at POFQ for the same dates, while at a resort we like would have cost $1724 without a discount. With say a 25% discount it would be $1307. so for $400 more we are staying were we love not just were we like a lot
