When renting DVC points do you receive toiletries?

[Dakota731]

Wondering what I'll need to pack?

An initial set of toiletries are supplied. Then replenishment on the fourth day (counting arrival date as one). You can actually purchase extra ones while there but cheaper to bring your own. Also supplied is enough coffee, sugar, powdered cream for a day. Fourth day replenishes things and changes towels, but best to assume that items you think are needed everyday should be coming with you or prepare to purchase some extras while there (hotel stores have things y6ou may need, but often at prices that shock many).

Don’t they all now have big bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body wash attached to the wall?

All of these items are now replenished for free. Just call Housekeeping and ask. From the member Web site:

Not all. The monorail resorts appear to be holding out.

Not all. The monorail resorts appear to be holding out.

And not even every unit at any given resort. I think they install as they can (staff/unit available).

So does AK villas have shampoo in big bottles attached to shower?

Depends on the unit

OKW one bedroom has bottles in shower for shampoo, conditioner and body wash. There was a tube of hand cream. There were several bars of soap, but I'm so glad I brought a bar of real soap! I always pack a pound of good coffee, coffee filters and a bag of laundry pods and a zip bag of dryer sheets. Laundry soap is now 1 bottle of liquid which was never replaced on a 11 night stay. They didn't do towel change on day 4 so I had to call and it was done on day 5 then they never did a full clean on day 7 and I had to call about that which was done on day 9. CYA, bring what you need...

For a stay of 11 nights should have been full cleaning on day 4 and trash/towel on day 8. They also provide laundry soap (as referenced above) for free to the 1, 2, and 3 bedroom units, if you call they will bring more for free (same with the coffee, though that is all units and towels can be replenished too).

We stayed at Jambo House this summer, and our room had the large attached bottles.

Every Disney resort unit has a hair dryer.

Shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the shower, bottles attached to the wall. Bar soap for the sinks. Hair dryer should be in either a drawer or closet. You may need to poke around to find it, but it's there.
