DVC is short for Disney Vacation Club. It is a timeshare run by Disney. Unlike other timeshares DVC has the flexibility of a point system.

You can book the time of year you travel and type of accommodation, including your resort of choice. With this style of timeshare you are not stuck in a particular week every year. You purchase an allotment of points that you can then choose to spend however you would like.

I (Heather) have been a DVC member for almost six years. I love the flexibility it gives my family. DVC isn’t for everyone. It does take pre-planning (usually 7-11 months in advanced). There are not usually much availability on short notice.

Want to know more about DVC? Check out all the ins and outs of it HERE. Recently, we shared that a HUGE perk is coming back for eligible DVC Members! Moonlight Magic is back at Disney World! Find the dates HERE.

Disney Vacation Club is updating the Big Pine Key building. This building is currently non-DVC. It will be converted to about 200 studios!

Disney Vacation Club describes it: These modern, sophisticated accommodations will sleep up to 5 Guests and offer luxe touches like quartz countertops, ornate crown molding and patterned tile. Resort Studios* also feature a flat-screen TV, a beverage center with a beverage cooler and coffee maker, and marble tile floors in the bathroom.

I (Heather) am personally interested to get a peak at these new Resort Studios. I love having the toaster and microwave to make quick and easy meals for my kids. These new Resort Studios will only have a beverage center and coffee maker (more like a traditional hotel room).

The newest addition to the The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian & Spa went on sale TODAY! Check out the starting price HERE. Did you buy any points?

Truthfully, I've always felt like their mini fridges are no better than that anyway. Maybe they're just renaming them?

Only a "beverage cooler" and not a mini-fridge? That's a deal breaker for me. I need the mini-fridge, as I bring most of my own food due to religious dietary reasons. I was hoping to stay there at least once, but as I wrote, no mini-fridge is a deal breaker for me.
