Hilton Grand Vacation Club at Sea World in Orlando

[Miss Marty]

Sleeping ... Arrangements

We have a Three Bedroom Suite -

The Master Bed has a King Size Mattress & Box Spring
It is Really Comfortable - Four (4) Brand New Pillows

The Second Bedroom has Two Queen Size Beds
That is the one they forget to replace the curtains in

The Third Bedroom is designed like a Studio
One Queen Size Bed and a Sleep Sofa

So guess where I slept last night

In The Living Room - On The Couch...
Everytime I laid down - my nose would run
So I sat up in bed with 3 Pillows behind me
Until I gave up and moved into the Living Room

It was very comfortable and at least I didn`t keep
Bill up all night ....

Extra Magic hours

While staying at OKW last week, we did enjoy the extra magic hours for Magic Kingdom. We stayed almost until closing and rode everything in those three hours, some rides twice. It was amazing. The later it got, the fewer people. I cannot remember a time when we were able to ride so much in so short a time.

If the evening is chilly, just wear jeans and a jacket. Orlando is rarely cold enough to keep us from going to Disney, although we were there six years ago when they had record lows and freezing temperatures for about five nights in a row. It was cold the entire trip, but that was the first week of January, so that would be a more likely time of year for such cold temps.

Of course, you have bronchitis, Marti, so you are probably not feeling up to cool evenings.

It's nice that you have a larger unit at OKW. We had a studio that we rented from a DVC owner. The unit was small and had a tiny bathtub. We went from Summer Bay, with a whirlpool bathtub for two, to a studio. Well, the units were very drastically different.

They have wires available for free internet access at OKW, so keep us informed on the crowds at Disney. They are a little worse at this time of year, due to the Daytona car races that happen about now. We were there last year during this particular week. I was surprised because I thought the numbers would be down in February.

Have fun!

The Hilton Grand Vacation Club at Sea World
was our first Timeshare Vacation

We have stayed here for a total of 5 weeks

RE: The Question about Points

We traded in using RCI and was just wondering

How many points HGVC Owners have to use to get
a Three (3) Bedroom Unit this time of year (season)

Hmmm... That's a bit more than 5 weeks.

(Just being silly)

5,800 Gold, 3BR.

I believe it moves into Platinum next week, so it would be 8,400 through HGVC or still only 5,800 through RCI.

We stayed at HGVC Seaworld two-and-a-half years ago, 10-1 through 10-8.

The master had the largest, most comfortable whirlpool tub for two. The jets were fabulous. The decor was top-notch as well. Nice place.

Which is nicer, the International Drive resort or Sea World? I am offered both of them all the time, but we need to try the other because of those RCI rules.

I toured the on on I drive last year. Very nice. I did not think about the one in 4 rule. That's a good work around

This is our "home" resort, but I have never stayed there. Long story - we first bought at Flamingo, then "upgraded" our points. I did stay at the Tuscany resort and thought it was very nice. Tuscany may be better for adult groups.

I've enjoyed reading about the Sea World resort and hope to stay there some day with kids and grandkids.

Seaworld or Tuscany? We swam at this time last year at the Tuscany resort. The air was chilly, but the pool was heated. The pool areas were very nice and they were not crowded!
