Desiring To Go To DisneyLand & Sites

I told my wife the other day that I would like to go to California.  We discussed why I was so anxious.  I told her that it has been years since I was in DisneyLand, and I wanted to see all of the changes that have been made.

I then told her that I would also like to visit the Disney Museum that opens in the fall of 2009.  It will be on almost any map of San Francisco.  The Disney Museum will basically tell the story of the life, and work of Walt Disney. 

I wouldn’t mind moving to the area, and getting a job with Disney, as the main studios for the filming, and the real technology is out there.  I don’t think that she would be able to handle the weather, but a dream is a dream.  If I ever get the right offer I guess all I have to do is surpise her by having one of the moving companies San Francisco has come and get me out of New Jersey.

I will not tell anyone where the photo is.

The only hint is that it is from somewhere in Disney World.

Disney Check-In Mobile Room Ready

Disney World has added something that I feel is very helpful to all those people that vacation there.  When a guest checked in previously they were given their room cards, and told they could call to find out if their room was ready, and what the room number was.  This call was normally handled by the maid service.  The room not being ready is generally because someone arrived earlier than check-in, or maid service didn’t get to clean the room as of yet, or needed some maintenance.

Disney has once again made it easier.  They have implemented a system to notify guests by text, or automated message that their room is ready.

The system is up, and running in Disney World, and expected to be in operation in DisneyLand later this summer.

What is DVC? Disney Vacation Club

I am NOT a salesperson for DVC.  I do not represent DVC.  I am only giving information about a program that I find value in.  I have saved money by being a DVC member, and you can too.

Many times I have heard people around the parks in Disney World asking what is DVC?  Rather than sending them to a kiosk I carry referral cards, and I also try to talk with them a few minutes.

DVC… Disney Vacation Club… Many years ago timeshares popped up out of the ground, and companies started making money.  Around 15 years ago Disney saw this, and decided what better way to allow people to vacation, save money, and enjoy themselves.

With @ 10 locations in Disney, and over 500 worldwide locations that the points can be used at you can’t go wrong.  There are even member only functions that you can participate in once you are a DVC member.

Here is something most don’t realize when they look at other timeshares… You get a set week each year.  You own it for “LIFE.”  So what ‘s the matter with the other systems you ask.  Well, nothing is forever, so “LIFE” comes with strings attached.  Set weeks means that you must travel at a specific time each year.  You can trade off your weeks, but there are no guarantees.

I know you are asking… What is the big difference with DVC?  With DVC you purchase a set of points.  Those points come with a point schedule.  Each day of the week has a different point value, and different seasons carry different point values.  If you purchased 200 points you could take 2+ weeks in Disney, or travel somewhere really exotic.

The DVC Resorts are those that are in the Disney Resorts.

The Orlando Disney World Resort area has: The Boardwalk, Saratoga Springs, Old Key West, Animal Kingdom Villas, Wilderness Lodge, Bay Lake Towers, Beach Club Villas, and others.

The Anaheim DisneyLand Resort area has: The Grand Californian.

Another location that has been announced is: Hawaii.

Disney also allows you to cruise on your points.

Currently you can purchase a DVC ownership for @ $17,920 plus closing costs & annual dues.

Do the calculations… If you spent @$1000 a year for a hotel in Disney you would be able to go for 17, or so years.  That is in a hotel venue.  DVC villas are not in the same class as a hotel room.

DVC is fully deedable, and lasts up to 50 years.

Currently those that are DVC members can get a discount on Annual Passes.  This is good for those that go to Disney multiple times in a year.

Make a smart choice, and purchase DVC.  You don’t have to go to Disney only.  You can go almost anywhere.  The price has essentially gone up over the past few years.  This is because there have been changes to the program.  The program keeps getting better.
