VDH Questions for Purchasing

[Girlstar30]

Not a fan but adapt to it. Only place it works pretty cool is with the duo. No murphy. Actual bed. (Lose the couch option though).

This actually sounds pretty good

Is the actual bed the same queen bed that's in the studios?

Your use year is in February so later in the year you could make one for Feb 1 2027 and then have them to use for 2/1/27 - 1/31/28

But would this MMB that expires in december cover those dates for the 12 otup?

Interesting about the SoCal deal being cheaper than upgrading. I get the top pass every year. It best suits my needs as I work M-F, so having Saturdays for the parks is key for me. And at least in the past, Saturdays in the summer are better than most other days. And then I can use Sundays to rest. Plus, I get all holidays as available except the 2 weeks around Christmas when I honestly don't want to go to the parks --- I have been then and prefer not to again.

That pass is best for us too, but I dont want to pay

The Garden Duo (hearing/wheelchair is this way. Huge bathroom area & looks to have slightly better square footage. #0155.

Well yeah, there is that. I put it on the monthly payment plan this year for the first time ever. Still not a fan of doing that, but my finances at the moment made it make more sense right now.

We do the AP in WDW but not DLR. We go for 15 nights or so at WDW and the DVC pass works out for us. We only go for 7 or so nights at DLR so 5 day park hoppers is what we get. Besides the WDW AP is cheaper and has 4 parks. DLR is expensive for 2 parks. Seems really geared to locals. I wish they had an equivalent DVC pass at DLR, then maybe we would go for it. And I use points to buy the AP. Not the "best" use of points but works great for us.

I wish that as long as you were direct, they would allow resale points to purchase the sorcerer pass. They dont so no way im using all my direct points on it unfortunately otherwise I would probably do it too for at least one of us. DLR is ridiculously expensive

The Garden Studio is just HA hearing. #0255. Won’t even know..unless like me & studied the difference. (Just some light pods added)

 

[Girlstar30]

There are more of us Than I realized!


My Mother In Law was in a wheel chair after a stroke. I would say if you reserve a wheel chair room and dont really need it, you are really messing with Karma. I think those rooms should be left to the folks that actually need the accessibility. We found it difficult to find parking or other accessible amenities due to able bodied people taking the spots. Really gets my blood boiling. We took care of DMIL for over 10 years before she passed. Those were our DVC drought years.
So HARD NO ON ACCESSIBLE ROOMS for me. Unless you really need it.

Other than that I have no opinion.

Ive only been in one and thats because they put me in one for one night of a last minute booking I didnt ask for it. It was at akv and didnt have the island so I wasnt a big fan

If the actual bed is the same as the deluxe studio I am down

For VDH. You actually must search HA for the options. When looking for a short notice trip. Got to do what you got to do!

I think when we had it our monthly payment was like $300 a month That being said i like going during the holiday and of course we're blocked out of all of them. Too late to go on monthly payments. When it expires we may need to upgrade now that were going to be staying at vdh

I had the hearing studio at VGC in December and there was no differences in that one that I could see. I booked 11 months out and it was the only studio I could get so I took it and waitlisted the regular one which did not come available once in the 11 months. Seriously thinking of getting some VGC in a different UY as can't walk a December UY for early December reservations there. (Sorry for the vent - frustrated as could not get for this year either and am booked at VDH instead and waitlisted for VGC).

I believe I have the Garden Duo wheelchair/hearing accessible at VDH next month for Moonlight Magic. I booked when dates were announced (which was way less than 7 months) and it is only 1 night. Will be interested to see what it looks like.

I grew up in Lake City, but have been in California 20+ years. My brother just moved back to Seattle so I should be there more often?

#0155. That’s the room I was in for the opossum sighting that night, in that ‘garden’ plant strip off the patio.

 

[Wedgeout]

0155 isn’t one of the large patios but still very nice.

Are there any MM this year that registration hasnt opened for, or did I miss them all

My monthly payment is $145.75 (I just looked), so I guess for 2, it would be about $300 per month. You can always set it up for monthly payments and then when you have some extra money, stop by the booths and pay one off. My pass renews early September, and I would have liked to pay it off early, but thinking that is not happening this year. At least, it is 0% interest so not paying extra to pay monthly.

I go for a lot of the holidays (or on those weekends) - went last Saturday, love 4th of July (special flag retreat), Labor Day, Memorial Day. I have also been on Christmas and Easter before too, but those always depend on the holiday plans with family. LOL

Happen to dust one of these hats off for you? Were better than the generics.
