    I’m still blown away that DVC Rental Store offers a cancellation policy and they don’t require all of the payment up front…seriously a game changer!

    I’m so glad that you have taken the time to share all of your experience and personal knowledge about DVC.I have lessened so much and feel optimistic about us being able to “splurge” for our (most likely)once in a lifetime visit to Disney World and stay at a fabulous location. You’re channel helps make the magic ✨ more accessible.

    We are finally getting ready to actually book DVC for a February trip for my 30th birthday, and it’s legitimately only because of you telling us about the DVC Rental Store and their extra perks. And we will absolutely use your affiliate link! If they’re reading this, get this woman a sponsorship!

    Ma'am, your tips have been a game changer for me with booking great travel experiences. I'm sooo grateful. I've been using DVC Rental store and they are the best. And I've been able to find prices for very nice rooms cheaper that Disney rates. I really appreciate your research and willingness to share the wealth! You're a gem!

    11:41 I was just looking tonight at dedicated reservations and found a few reservations on the DVC Rental store for $11/point. These are all reservations that are coming up in about a week or so, but a couple were at nice resorts. One was for a 1-bedroom at Copper Creek (7 nights for $2,607), 1-bedroom at Boardwalk Villas (3-nights for $1,056), and several Old Key West and Saratoga reservations.

    Have you ever added the Disney Dining Plan to your DVC rental? We have a confirmed rental through DVC rental store, but having someone else purchase the dining plan for us makes me so nervous.

    So we missed the opportunity to rent for our January request. The dates we needed were no longer available and they couldn’t match us in time. BUT we’re not giving up hope and will continue looking. This seems to be the most affordable way to stay on property with our larger group size. ❤
    Thank you for all of the amazing information!

    Question- If you rent DVC points, how does dining work? Can I still purchase a dining plan? Do you book dining reservations in the same way you would if you had a disney resort package? Thank you!

    • @BekahHart
      @BekahHart  Рік тому +2

      Yes, you can still purchase the dining plan ☺️ The owner of the DVC points would need to add the plan to the reservation on your behalf. And yes, how you book dining reservations is exactly the same 👌🏼

    Hi, love your video. I I do have two more questions. I need two rooms as I have a bigger family. Would I be able to book it together? Second question would DVC owners cancel your reservations due to them selling their DVC or wanting to use those points.

    • @BekahHart
      @BekahHart  Рік тому +1

      The latest our room has been ready is the official checkin time with DVC villas at 4pm 🙃 We don’t have a stroller napper either, so we do everything we can to get an early check in. Call ahead, get to the resort asap, make a small purchase so it signals to the resort you are there, and check with the front desk once you arrive. Those are the things that have helped us get early check ins on all of our trips this past year 🙌🏼

    Doing my research for an upcoming trip and really planning on doing DVC rental. I really want to stay at the contemporary because of how close it is to MK. It looks like the DVC option is Bay lake towers. Can you talk more about Bay Lake Towers? Is it as close as a standard contemporary room? Thank you❤❤❤

    • @BekahHart
      @BekahHart  Рік тому +1

      BLT is great!! It’s the exact same walking distance to MK as contemporary ☺️ The pro of a bay lake tower studio is the kitchenette, and of course the lower price point by renting points. The con is that the bathroom is very small, you have a pullout sofa instead of the second queen bed, and they’re not updated.

      Thank you so much. Finding your video allowed me to feel comfortable about being able to give my kid a Disney vacation. The DVC rental that you preferred they didn’t have any of the dates that I was looking for. DVC shop retail did have the days that we could go. I just wanted to make sure that they were legit. I have insurance that will cover any loss for me, so I’m OK.
