I was just curious to know if others opted to book directly through Marriott to get points or prefer to rent DVC points. Earning points through Marriott is nice, but I didn't know if there could be more savings going the DVC route.

Thanks
 
Ok, thanks for the information. I thought I came across a post elsewhere that mentioned DVC and the Swan which is why I asked.

DVC can get you BW or BC in the Epcot area though! If it’s a better deal for you depends on what it prices out at. Swolphin has dynamic prices and if your dates cross offer with a big convention rooms can be as expensive as rack rate BC, if not Swolphin can be a deal (although it charges for parking).

Good point about conferences. Just another factor to consider when booking a trip to Disney.

We've briefly looked into BW but I still need to look at BC. There are so many options!
