The Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Owners & Lovers Group - 3.0

[thadhouse]

We're there the first week of December. I'm _really_ hoping GCH annual meeting is that week, I will be there 100% if it is. Between the "refurb" and now this, something is up and we need answers.

Just boggles my mind that they would treat DVC Members worse than cash guests. I can't fathom it.

This won’t go over well, as it shouldn’t. I feel like this policy will end up changing after the pushback though. They have gone back on things before and say something like oh we were figuring out the logistics between parks and DVC and couldn’t disclose until it was solidified blah blah blah. Kind of how international guests always get the discount or whatever waaaay later

You’ll be in Florida or California? I believe the meeting is in Florida right?

I thought they were changing them to be done at the resort. I'll be in California.

I will be in CA early Dec, previously I said I would not take time away from my vacation but maybe I will. Although it's not a real meeting since we are CA owners we have to attend via video. Maybe you are right @thadhouse they dont value us CA owners the same vs FL.

This says DVC is included. It would be hard to sell those VDL points otherwise.

Hmm actually you might be right. I think the big one encompassing all of DVC general/bigger news is in Florida but the VGC and VDH will be in Anaheim.

Great news! Now we just need the announcement that it applies to every day for DVC Members

Man we do really run with the first rumor don’t we? lol

Ha! I just so happened to cancel my DL stay next year last night in favor of Dw. Was considering borrowing for DL and going longer but nope! Will wait this out until new management comes to its senses. Terrible! Maybe they are trying to flush deluxe owners. Maybe they are overloaded in the morning with VDH?- wait what- it's not popular???


idk I'm glad I went twice this year. Done for awhile.

That's generally a reliable source though

Fair, that’s why I also believed it. Should’ve known though because it didn’t make sense to single out DVC when even Pixar Place guests as a moderate would get this benefit.

Is it not true?? I clicked the link. Ok I see partially true.

 

[thadhouse]

Losing the Pixar Place entrance still sucks though. That was amazing for VGC, and very nice for VDH.

I do wonder if it will be closed as an exit too. Even when it was closing at noon for entry, it was really nice to be able to exit that way after World of Color.

Not sure, nothing was official from Disney/DVC.

I actually appreciated it more for VDH than VGC. Even though last Halloween I went from my VGC room to inside the park in under 2 minutes. It was amazing so amazing I almost cried with joy that I was a new owner.

In case you missed this morning's announcement.

Already posted on the thread about this change, but I am really disappointed. 1 LL per stay vs Early Entry EVERY DAY. What a bargain.

Yeah, loosing that entrance and exit is a MASSIVE blow to both DVC resorts.
