If you are fine with either OKW or SSR and can fit in a 1 bedroom it is hard to beat an RCI exchange (if you have RCI and a cost effective means to trade in).Looking to go to Disney next year and stay on property, where/wht is the best source for DVC rentals?
Thanks!
Whenever, I rent my DVC points I always use Disboards. Find an owner that will work with you if you have to postpone (cancelling is another story) your reservation, also find someone with a use year that doesn't expire soon. This way if you have to postpone your reservation you may have a few months to work with in finding another date.In addition to the rental agencies, there is also the rent/trade board on DISboards https://www.disboards.com/forums/dvc-rent-trade.29/. Just be careful there - if you post on a thread that you’re interested in renting from that person, and someone else contacts you offering to rent to you, ignore them. They may be a scammer. Deal only with the person who posted on DISboards.
Is there the option to visit with a discounted rate like how Hilton Grand Vacations does?
keep in mind, renting is usually a final trasnx. As many (sadly) found out with Covid--no cancellations, so out the full amount without any options.
For the foreseeable future I would say that booking directly through Disney is better than renting. Disney’s cancellation policies are much more flexible than renting can be. There’s a glut of points for rent on the market right now, so prices are low, but with uncertainties about travel I’d rather have an easily cancelable reservation. And Disney is offering some very competitive discounts as well.Would I be better served just booking on my own? I’m looking at Aulani and HHI as being my home resort. I find HHI availability VERY hard to find from Disney... I also hope their resort restaurant options are better than Vero Beach, which is quite limited for a hotel commanding such high rates....
If you're looking for HI and HHI then there are a ton of non DVC options as well. Certainly Aulani is great but there are other good choices as well. For HHI, IMO, there are better resort options that are non DVC. For HHI there is not a formal restaurant on property but there are several within walking distance and many more a short car ride away.Would I be better served just booking on my own?
