Split stay and DDP

[AmyM]

Anyone no if this will work? We are checking in to the Poly, garden view, for one night and then moving to Poly concierge for 3 nights. We are using DVC points for the stay so can just pay to add DDP without having a package.

What I am considering doing is having regular DDP for all 4 nights and eating at 2 signature restaurants. That will give us 2 TS for the first night room and then 6 TS for the last 3 nights for our party of 2. I know you have to use all of your credits by midnight on checkout day.

If I book a signature restaurant for night 2 can I use the 1st night 2 TS credits for one person and then 2 of the 6 TS's for the second person? I would think this would work. Has anyone done it? I would add DxDP for the stay, but I think that will be WAY to much food considering we will have access to the concierge lounge.

Hoping this will work. What are your thoughts?

it should work

we have done something similar to this, booked 2 nights at akv, added dxdp. Checked out Sunday and used the credits that night at FF.

I would suggest adding dxdp the first night and ddp the second stay

this would get you 1 ts and 1 signature dinner, with appies

Yes, it'll work as long as you have 2 TS left over from the first stay. If you only had one you couldn't combine it with a TS from the second stay for a signature restaurant.

Just use key cards from both reservations to pay for the dinner.

Perfect Thanks I thought it should work! We have California Grill for our last night and I'm thinking Artist Point for night 2. Hubby and I are going for our 20th anniversary and these are two restaurants we've never eaten at.

I had honestly considered doing this very thing. The ONLY reason I would not is the fear/hope of being upgraded to concierge the first night. The last time I stayed at the Poly I had a garden view booked the first night because we were coming in at 11pm and then moving over to concierge. The pixie dust hit us and they upgraded us to the concierge room for the first night so we ended up in the same room the entire stay

Because of this I'm wondering if it would even be a possibility to upgrade if I have a different dining plan on the reservations. I certainly am not expecting an upgrade and would be very happy in the garden view for the first night. However, if the Poly wants to upgrade me the first night so I don't have to move, I won't complain.
