Via Napoli and DDP?

[jenny-d]

We loved Via Napoli last year but did not have the dining plan...this year we will have it (FREE!)
I'm wondering how the ddp will work if anyone knows or has done it there. We have 3 adults and 1 child. Last year we got the large pizza and salad and it was delicious!! Thanks for any info!

We were there in March and had the DP. I was ill and stayed in our villa, however, the family (DH, DD, DSIL, 3DGC) were disappointed because they did not have the full choice of the menu. Don't know what that was all about or if they have changed it.

My DH & I were there for the "soft opening" and had their individual pizzas and they were great. One pizza with a salad would have been enough for the both of us.

Per TDC Nala:

Here's the lowdown on Via Napoli on the dining plan:

1 TS credit: individual size pizza, drink and dessert. They will NOT allow two people on DDP to share one individual pizza. You would each have to spend a credit and order your own entree.

2 TS credits: Large pizza, 2 drinks and 2 desserts. They will allow only two people to share this. Any extra persons at the table will have to order their own entree and spend a credit.

4 TS credits: 1/2 meter pizza, 4 drinks and 4 desserts. Again, any party of more than 4 will mean the extra persons will need to order their own entree and spend a credit.

When paying OOP you can order and share whatever you like.

So, pretty much for pizza everyone who is going to eat a pizza MUST use a TS credit. You can not share and not use a credit.

The make your own pizza is not allowed on the dining plan. You can only choose the menued options.

You can also order any of the pasta entrees.

I forgot to mention that when my DH & I were there for the soft opening we were not on the DP. However, I am sure when my family was there in March their choices were restricted because that was the first thing my DD told me when they returned to the room. I don't believe they were trying to get more than they were entitled to. Just couldn't order what they wanted off the menu. Not everyone wanted pizza.
