h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 We are looking into a split stay this Christmas. 3-4 days at a DVC and then 7 nights at our timeshare. We've rented from a third party vendor several times and will probably use him again. The only problem is I don't know what he has available. He doesn't check for availability until you request the resort and put up the money. I think he gets a lot of lookie Lou's. Or does DVC only show availability after you put up your points. I find it hard to believe DVC makes you put up points. So is there a way for a non-dvc member to look for dvc availability? thanks in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My friend and I were looking at her DVC access and searching for points. She didnt have to put up any points to check availability. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll look it up on the website for you if you tell me the dates and the accommodations to look at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you so much. Checking in December 20 for three nights. Our first choice is a studio at the poly. We'd also like to know if there's availability for the same time and room at the grand Floridian, beach club, December 20 for three nights. We'd also like to know if there's availability for the same time and room type at the grand Floridian, beach club, and boardwalk. And also animal Kingdom Lodge but there always seems to be availability there. Thank you so much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dvccamper 32 Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Wow, I just checked and it's showing no availability at any of those resorts. I opened it up to all resorts and all that was available was the first night at SSR in a preferred view. Sorry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
