The ones in Orlando (that I have used) are all charcoal.

As a result. charcoal and matches are on my permanent DVC shopping list.

When will you be going?

I just reserved Bay Lake Towers early November. Can't wait.
I have a wait listed for one night, hopefully it comes through. Hate to move resorts for one day right smack in the middle of our stay.
I am taking my nieces for their birthdays - one 16 & one 13. They love my DVC points!

I can confirm that all of the Orlando DVCs have charcoal grills.

DVC Grills Master List

Grand Californian and Aulani have gas grills. I haven't used the ones at Aulani (yet) but the ones at Grand Californian (which I used a couple weeks ago!) are VERY nice.

Thanks for the info!
Wish the grills were gas in Orlando.
Will have to make sure I put charcoal on the grocery list!

Vero Beach and Hilton Head have Charcoal.

Not that you asked about this, but all the marriott resorts have gas grills -- and they have people who clean the grills every night. Grilling at any of the Marriotts is so nice - Disney makes you work for your meal by buying charcoal and having to clean the grills.

I was a DVC owner and we never grilled because of the charcoal issue.

Been to Aulani twice and have never seen any grills available for DVC members. Are they hidden somewhere that I haven't explored? I can confirm that VGC has propane grills. thanks

Barbecues at Aulani

We spent a week there in January and saw no barbecues. We were told that some might be installed on the south side of the resort once the south wing is open.

We always use the gas grills at Grande Vista. It really is wonderful to be able to grill, even when you have a studio.

Disney has restaurants to fill, too. Every meal cooked outside means one less expensive meal purchased. Starwood has great well- maintained gas grills and we use them a lot.
