Favorite DVC Resort

I'm sure this has been posted before but I'm just curious. What is your favorite DVC resort and is it your home resort?

Mine is VWL and it is not my home as it didn't exsist when we bought into DVC, but we do own some points at VWL.

We honeymooned at Wilderness lodge and fell in love with it. When VWL opened my husband bought me (us) 50 points as a Christmas present (I wish it would have been more, but that is all we could afford at that time)

I can't wait to here you favorite!

Jennifer

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

So far V at WL but that's the only we have stayed at so far. We will visit SSR this June, which is our home resort.

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Our favourite are the Beach Club Villas - we loved the Beach Club and when we heard they were building the Villas, that was the time for us to buy into the DVC and that's our home resort.

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Oh, let's see...

For theming, definitely VWL and it is our home resort. But for space and convenience, we love OKW. Whenever we drive, we stay at OKW, even though we don't own any points there.

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Our favorite resort(s) are the two that we own -- for entirely different reasons.....

We love VWL for our fall trip. DH and I love the northwest woodsy feel and if we won the lottery we would immediately retire to some luxury log cabin. It's so nice to board the boat at the Magic Kingdom, or the bus at any of the other parks, and be transported to another place entirely.

On the other hand, for our January trip, there's no place like Old Key West for us. By the end of January we've had it with the snow, ice and cold weather of the northeast and are ready for some tropical music and beautiful flowers. We can sit on our LARGE balcony and think about our friends up on Long Island shoveling snow! I guess in our "lottery winning fantasy" OKW would be our vacation condo .

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Great question! It's neat to read everyone's responses!

Ours is BCV, but our home resorts are HH and SSR. I am planning on BCV being our next "home" though!

We'll be staying at VWL for the first time in a few weeks, so all of these VWL lovers are getting me excited!

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

So far, I've only stayed at my home(BCV) and VWL. Even though I love the location of BCV, I absolutely love the VWL. I love the theme, I love the lobby, I love the boat ride to the MK. I can't wait to stay in our 2 bedroom villa in June!

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Our home resorts are OKW, VWL, BCV and SSR. Which is our favorite??? Porbably OKW for room size and BCV for location and VWL for theming!

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

My home resort is VWL and it is my favorite but OKW is a close second. I'm looking forward to staying at least once at all the DVC resorts.

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

We own at Boardwalk and Vero. We have stayed at all of the DVC resorts except SSR (we have toured there) and Hilton Head. Boardwalk is by far our favorite and I'm really glad we own there. I love being able to walk to Epcot and MGM. We've got a boardwalk view booked for this June and I'm really looking forward to staying there again!


We tried Vero for the first time last December and will definately be back (we mostly bought it to use as a gift for my in-laws).

My favourite is the BCV. We don't own DVC but our best friends do who we do all our Disney trips with. The BCV is their home resort.

Thanks for sharing!

DVC is by far the BEST investment we have ever made and I do not regret it for even one second!

Thanks again !

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

Our favorite DVC Resort( and home resort!)is VWL. We just love the theme and atmosphere (as well as the great piped in music!). We've stayed at OKW and the rooms there are great. They are so BIG. Our next stay (in 26 days!!) will be at BWV. We keep hearing great things, so I expect to love it there as well. We have a boardwalk view room so I am really looking forward to it.

Re: Favorite DVC Resort

My favorite is definitely BCV. We absolutely adored our stay here. Running it a close second would be VWL even though we have not stayed at the villas here yet. However, we have stayed twice at WL and love it a lot. Unfortunately my home resort is neither of these. My home resort is Saratoga Springs which I actually truly detest. I'm hoping it improves with time as it nears completion.
