Thinking only of this Use Year (UY), what size DVC accommodations have you booked using your DVC points?

This is a multi-choice poll. Please select as many unit types as apply for the current UY.
  • Studio
  • 1BR
  • 2BR
  • 3BR (GV)
  • Specialty Unit (Beach Cottage, Treehouse, Bungalow, Cascade Cabin)
  • Exchange (booked something outside DVC)
  • Other (Used points in a different UY through Bank/Borrow; Rented Out; etc.)
My answer: Studio, 1BR, Specialty Unit (Treehouse). We tend to hop around with respect to both resort location and unit type; this year was typical behavior for us. How about you?
 
We did 10 nights in Poly studio (we had 2 adjoining, my parents and my DH and I are both DVC and always go together) and 3 nights in the bungalow. We stayed non dvc last year on a free dining trip and banked points for our Poly trip.
 

It was a very good year.:goodvibes
March 2018 UY
Studio, 1 bedroom, Cascade Cabin and Grand Villa (Aulani)

March 2019 UY BOOKED
Studio, 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom!
 
I'm now in 2019 UY but answered 1BR since that's what we stayed in last Oct. and I figured you wanted 2018 data. If that's incorrect, let me know and I'll change my vote since we'll be in a 2BR in Oct. 2019.
 
We initially bought to stay in 1BR's. Now often bring family and have done 2BR's and a GV once but in the past few years have been doing far more multiple studios than any large units. The worst nightmare for the system.

I was going for whatever you consider your current UY. (Almost a "pick one, recent, 12-month time period. Any one ... but try to stay w/in a single 12 month period.") Just watching for a measurable, recent, period. If your 1BR in Oct was the only stay for that UY, you did fine! Thank you! :)
 
Did GV in Vero 2018 with family. It was a bucket list thing.
Just checking, as I pondered this when constructing the pole: Does Vero GV = Vero Beach Cottage? Or are there both Cottages and GVs? Thanks for your help with this clarification. :)

The Beach Cottage is certainly on our DVC Bucket list, also!

We've done part of your path (from initial 1BR to "friends/family=larger units") but have not yet progressed to multiple studios. Hmmm ...

Heh, heh ... this has been a good year! Well done! (Last UY we stayed in a Cascade Cabin ... but that was all we did. We were thankful for banked points from the prior year to make it happen. Just love the Cabin. Sigh. Dreaming of a return ... someday!)
 
UY are June and Aug...650 points

Trips in current UY (2018) were/are from October 2018 to May 2019. Mostly did a 1BR.
CCV studio 1 night
HHI studio 1 night
HHI 2BR 2 nights
BLT 1BR 7 nights
SSR 1BR 2 nights
*BRV studio 1 night for niece to use

2019 UY trips will be Sept 2019- summer 2020.
BWV 2BR 8 nights
CCV Cabin 2 nights
* rented out studio at BWV for 7 nights
*HHI 1BR or 2BR for 2-4 nights?? not booked yet (will go May-July...Aug UY)

So studio is our least booked, then 1BR and 2BR are equally booked. The cabin will be a one and done and we only have stayed in a GV one time for 3-4 nights at HHI. Booking the big daddies (GV or cabin or bungalow or treehouse) will be rarity. Maybe more often once kids get married (they are all 20somethings now).

I have two UYs:
In my Jun UY we have stayed in multiple resorts Studios and taken 2 DCLs.
In my Feb UY we have stayed in multiple resorts Studios, some time multiple rooms at the same time with family.
 
2 Bedroom at AKV in December when we treated family....studio at BWV this month on a quick visit with just the three of us.
 
June 2018 use year was be two 7 night trips in an OKW one bedroom, June 2019 will be 2 7 night trips in an OKW 2 bedroom.
 
We stayed in a BCV studio and a BLT 2 BR LV Lock-off in the 2018 UY. Our Feb UY just rolled over.
 
We stayed in a 1br and 2br at BLT in 2018, because we had banked points from 2017. Now we are points-poor.
