Villa Discount

[MickeyMickey]

We are looking at spending a week in one of the DVC 2 beddroom villas the week of October 1st or sometime in November. Has anyone received a discounted rate on these, AAA, AP or other? If so which property and what rate?

Thanks

We are going Feb.4-12 and staying @BCV in a one bedroom. I booked back in aug. using AAA and got that rate. When AP codes came out I got that rate. My understanding is that it is rare to get AP rates for villas. For eight nights it is $2700something. This is much cheaper than last year on a AAA package. We are pretty pleased with the price. You can also rent points from other disers, there is a another board for DVC members wanting to sell points. I hope this helps.

You could rent points from a memeber and save money that way. If you go to the DVC rent board you will be able to find out some pricing information.

I've been trying to get AAA rates on a 2 bedroom DVC villa (BCV, VWL) for November. They have AAA rates on some 1 bedrooms but not on the 2 bedrooms. Here are some of the rates I was quoted:

VWL $396, rack is $450
SSR & OKW $355 1 bedroom, $575 2 bedroom

Those were all the ones that had AAA rates. They said to keep calling back to check. Good luck!

Bump!

your best bet is to rent from a member. OKW is the lowest in our points, so you can get a great deal there. rent from a member.

I've been trying to rent points from a member for November, but it has been difficult! The points seem to be taken right away and it is hard to get someone to even email me back. Do you know when points are usually easier to rent? Less than 7 months out? Any tips would be appreciated!

I have the e-mail of someone we have rented from for our trip this summer. Everything is fine so far, reservation in my name, etc. PM me if you want his e-mail.

You book from your checkout date for dvc. Say you wanted nov1-7, you would book 11 months prior on the 7th. I would try with several members. I'll see if my contact has anything.

Thanks for your help and offering to check with your contacts. I was hoping to find a VWL owner so that we could reserve before the 7-month mark (we're trying to go at Thanksgiving, November 19-26). But maybe we'd consider BCV if there was someone there with points. I guess I just have to be patient!
