We are hoping to have a week at HH in July of next year (not 4th July week!!) but can only book 7 mnths out as not owners there.

I know it is their peak season......so what is the likelihood of me getting a 1 bed during this mnth? Would love to hear all your experiences, good and bad!

Last year we tried to get 5 nights, 1 bdrm at HH the 2nd week of June. Began trying at 7 month window and got 2 of the nights - Friday/Saturday which were VERY high point nights. (You think onsite WDW has a point difference on weekends, you should see the HH spread!! Yikes!)

Went on waitlist for remaining 3 more nights either before OR after that weekend, we were very flexible. About 6 weeks out we got 1 more night, nothing more ever came open.
 

This dosen't sound too promising!!! What have other people's experiences been? Would I have more chance getting a 2 bed? I don't know how many of each unit type there are at HH!

Our first trip to HH was booked at the 7 month mark. We were able to get a 2 bedroom. Definately call day by day -- as early as possible in the morning.

I booked 7 months out during Christmas time. I don't know if it made a difference or not, but MS was closed some of the holidays so I only had to call a couple of times to secure our entire week.
 
Can anyone tell me what the break down of the resort is in terms of how many of each type of unit and where they are located?!!

5 Grand Villas
76 Dedicated Two Bedroom
21 Lockoff 2BR (i.e., 21 possible 1 BR and 21 possible Studios).

Nearly all of the 1BR and Studios are in the main lodge.
 
We got HHI for 8 nights in June (10-18) 2 bedroom, by calling day by day at the 7th month window...

I am not sure if July is harder to get..... but I would give calling day by day a shot.
 
Anyone else had any luck in getting in during July at the 7 mnth window?!!

Is it possible to make a cash reservation and then cancel that and pay with points if it becomes available? Does anyone know how much it is per night in July for a 1 or 2 bed?

1BR -Sun-Thu 26pt; Fri 52pt; Sat 77pt
2BR -Sun-Thu 33pt; Fri 66pt; Sat 99pt :earseek:
 
Typically, It is easier to get studio,1BR,2BR BEFORE June 10th or so, after that, I would say it is ALMOST impossible. Now, the cavet is 2BR are more available, and Fri/Sat nights are usually open due to high points.

I would not say forget it, but highly doubtful June 10-Aug 3-15....
