Tell me about cash ressies...

[Nette]

DH, Me, DD, and my mom are all going to be staying in a 2bdrm villa during December this year. The original plan was to do DVC for Sunday-Thursday and move to Poly for Friday and Saturday. (At a lovely rack rate of 2 rooms for > $1300 -- we have APs, but that's not a sure thing)

But now DH and I are feeling lazy. We don't want to move. *AND* in our curiousity we looked up rack rate for a 2 bdrm villa at BCV and it is LESS than the two rooms at Poly. (~ $1200)

So I swear I remember hearing about cash ressies and DVC member discounts on them. Can someone give me a heads up before I call MS and find out if there is any availablity?

Thanks.

Cash rack rate (CRO) ressies come from a different room inventory than Member discount cash ressies, they come out of our "point" room inventories and must be booked through Member Services. The member discount is 25%, but it is not always available, buit certainly worth a call.

Wow. It is done. And we will be saving a LOT of money.

That suite is 409/night with the member discount... which got and booked. yay (even with an AP discount on the room at Poly, I figure we'd spend $200/rm/night.

Whew! Thanks!
