I am considering to join DVC can anyone tell me if it is worth it? Pros and Cons? Please and thank you.
There are definitely cheaper ways to do Disney but the villas sure are comfortable.With our family growing, we would now need 3 rooms, but a villa is so nice, we can all be together. Also the cost of 3 rooms (even value) makes Me shudder!
Yeah. Let’s just say that my kids have a warped sense of what is “normal.” But it is very easy to get used to nice things.There are definitely cheaper ways to do Disney but the villas sure are comfortable.
We went to VGC earlier this year. Spent a few nights in a 1BD and then switched to a cash pay room. After the 1BD we were like “ugh. That’s it???” in a $1000/night hotel room.

Why is addon-itus a con ? (Says the guy who intended to have 500 points and ended up with 3,500)
My problem is that I WANT more points than I have vacation enough to USE, but we don’t want to be bothered to rent them out. So no CCV envelope though I keep looking at it.Why is addon-itus a con ? (Says the guy who intended to have 500 points and ended up with 3,500)
The primary advantage of DVC---or, for that matter, of any timeshare---is that vacations are prepaid and use-it-or-lose-it. This tends to make vacations a priority around which you plan other things, rather than the other way around. For instance, I am quite sure I have not saved money by owning timeshares, because I take many more vacations than I would have if left to my own devices.Pros and Cons?
