Contemporary Resort Points

I called Monday to make our DVC reservations at OKW and our stay at the Contemporary using DVC points. You can now be guaranteed a MK view for a few extra points [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img] I saw this on the points chart on the DVC web site. It must be new because the CM didn't even know!!
Reward: Angel Pixie x 1 Reward: 1000 Threads Medal x 1 Reward: 1000 Replies Medal x 1 Reward: Halloween Pixie x 1 Reward: Holidays Pixie x 1 Reward: Banana Pixie x 1

Re: Contemporary Resort Points

That's great. DW and I were just discussing staying at the Contemporary, but we'd only want to stay there if we had the MK view. Now that we know it's possible to use our DVC points to reserve an MKview room, we just might have to take them up on the offer.

We've always said that we'd only stay if we could have an MK view. Maybe we'll have to look into that... [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Contemporary Resort Points

It's only 3 extra points more per night S-Th for a MK view versus a Bay Lake view-definately worth the points!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
