Vacuum in Studio Villas?

[wendlle]

I'm staying at three resorts all in Studio Villas (Boulder Ridge, Boardwalk and AKL Jambo House.
Can anyone tell me if they have a vacuum in the room?
I want to use the space saver bags for our clothes but they are only good if you have access to an appropriate vacuum.
I tried to buy a portable one online but the valve is way too small and it doesn't have enough power to actually suck out the air.

I don't know about the Studios, but in the 1 and 2 bedrooms we have stayed the vacuums would not have been able to be used for this.

Yes, that's what I need to know. If they are a normal vacuum or an upright (which wouldn't be suitable)

I’ve only ever seen/used an upright in Villas.

They do not have parts to suck out the air from one of these bags. You'll need the roll up bags that you force the air out of yourself.

What do you consider a "Normal" vacuum. I think my upright is a normal vacuum. But as the others have said, the DVC Vacuums will not work

I know this was not part of the question, but there are bags on the market that do not require a vacuum. You can either roll them or lay or sit on them. I used to use them, but now I find packing cubes more convienent.

Thanks for the replies, I ended up using the ones I have at home for storage and purchased some from Amazon that come with their own pump.
I don't like the roll up ones, they just don't expel enough air.
