What supplies are in a DVC unit?

[dphie28]

So, our first DVC stay begins 4 weeks from today! I was wondering what we don't have to pack because it will be in the 2 BR unit we chose. Ex, hairdryer, soap, etc. Are normal 'hotel ammenities" included? What about things like condiments, salt, sugar, etc? Any of that in the kitchen? Will there be paper towels? Will they replace them if we run out? I have stayed in a timeshare before but we had to supply EVERYTHING. I wasn't sure (since Disney also offers cash ressies) what would be included.

Thanks!

For AKL Kidani Village/Jambo House, I scanned copies of "one-bedroom and two-bedroom amenity list"...

hairdryer, soap, paper towels, etc in our 1-bedroom

salt, sugar, etc we got them from Mara (over-the-counter restaurant).

As you can see in the link above, they are well stocked with dishes/utensils etc.
You will have a starter packet (1) of coffee, 8 (I think) sugars and creamers. These are replenished on Trash & Towel day.
You need to bring additional coffee and filters. There are no seasonings or condiments of any kind.
You will have a sponge, small dishwashing liquid bottle, small packet of dishwasher powder, and paper towels. These are replenished as needed.
You will have a small 1-2 load box of Tide laundry soap. This is replenished on Trash & Towel day. If you need more you need to purchase it.
You will have small bottles (hotel size) of shampoo and conditioner per bathroom. You will have a small bar of face soap and a small bar of body soap per bathroom. These are replaced on Trash & Towel day.
Just about anything else you will need to bring.

I looked at the list and have looked at many pics of the bathrooms but I don't see that hairdryers are provided. I can find pics of them in the regular rooms at Jambo House but haven't seen any evidence in the villas. Are they in a drawer somewhere or not there at all?
Thanks. Hairdryers take up a fair amount of luggage space, especially when you have girls and will need more than one!

when DW mentioned no hair dryer on the wall?!...and I immediately found the Conair hair dryer 1875 (very powerful) in its own bag in top right drawer/mirror in the master bathroom.

Edited: added master bathroom pic for top left/right drawers for hair dryer.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the info. That will leave more room to bring home more souvies!

Paper towels and toilet paper---will these be replenished daily (if we call)? Will they charge for these or should I bring my own? TIA!

when we checked into our 1-bedroom in KV,

1 paper towel on kitchen rack and 1 extra paper towel under the kitchen sink.

1 toilet paper in master bath and 1 toilet paper in the full bath and extra toilet papers in master bath and full bath.

On the day of Trash & Towel Service, Housekeeping restocked everything...if we needed more just dial Housekeeping on the room phone without charge where we would give a small tip. For all our past stays in 1-bedroom or 2-bedroom, we never found that we needed to call Housekeeping for more paper towels and toilet papers.
