How is Disney Different?

Since 1991, the Walt Disney Company has been selling memberships into the Disney Vacation Club. DVC offers a unique approach to timeshare ownership. The flexibility of a Disney membership is because of a point program. It allows members to travel with their families any time of year to various size accommodations. Currently, members have access to 14 Disney Vacation Club. Resorts at not only Walt Disney World but other locations including Hawaii, California, South Carolina and Vero Beach, Florida. Also, DVC members have access to thousands of resorts all over the world through Resort Condominiums International (RCI).

Retail vs. Resale

The cost of a DVC Membership varies based on many factors; such as home resort, size of the contract, and current points availability. Annual dues and resort expiration dates also tend to be factors for buyers who purchase resale contracts. Click here to learn more about Resort Expiration Dates and Annual Dues. The primary reason for the popularity of purchasing a Disney Vacation Club Resale is the price! Often, buyers who purchase DVC contract on the resale market save as much as 20-50% rather than purchasing directly from Disney. [direct_purchase_disney_prices][/direct_purchase_disney_prices] Purchasing a Disney Vacation Club resale is much cheaper than purchasing from Disney. Thus buyers often think there must be a big difference in the product and how it works. In reality, the differences are minimal. They’re what’s called ‘incidental benefits,’ and the following is an explanation of those benefits: “You will receive the same great service as any other Disney Vacation Club member! You’ll have access to Member Services and all the DVC Resorts and all of the World Passport Collection Resorts (RCI). The points purchase on the Resale Market cannot be used towards purchasing Disney Cruises, stays at Disney Hotels (that are not DVC Resorts), Adventures by Disney and the Concierge Collection. These options are not a popular use of points. Many people who are considering vacationing in this way would likely elect to rent out their points. With the extra cash left over, use that to pay for their cruise. Also, note that Disney denotes these options as incidental benefits of Membership. Disney reserves the right to discontinue them at any time regardless of how the membership is purchased.”
