    *The Official VILLAS AT DISNEY'S GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA Owners & Lovers Group*

    Anyone been recently? our welcome home trip is at the VGF on February 8th! Hoping that the lobby doesn't go under construction whilst we are there. Is there still lots of construction going on / scaffolding or is it mostly back to normal?

    Got our welcome home stay in February next year, taking my parents with us who have never even been to the USA before (we are from UK), will be a bit disappointed if the Lobby is under refurb still when we go, but even if it is its such a lovely resort <3

    Current Magical Beginnings promotion with Direct

    May not effect anyone here but when we bought our first direct contract in march they said they couldn’t buy back our points as it’s only open to members from the USA (we are from uk).

    2 bedroom 7 month availability

    That is correct. So there is potential of not getting the 2 bed I would want and also losing the studio. I think we may just stick with two studios more. It’s me, my wife and our 2 small kids (3 and 1) plus my parents going so maybe having different rooms could give us more private space.

    2 bedroom 7 month availability

    I don’t have enough points for a 2 bedroom at vgf and at the time thought 2 studios would be best anyway. Now having second thoughts and wondering if a 2 bedroom may be better so now wondering what availability may be like since I don’t have enough points for my home resort.

    2 bedroom 7 month availability

    Thank you so much for such a detailed reply. As a dvc newbie I hadn’t considered the 7 nights only being available in the exact 7 month window so good of you to mention.

    2 bedroom 7 month availability

    We’ve booked our first dvc stay for 9 nights February 8th 2024 currently have 2 deluxe studios booked at vgf. Was thinking of maybe trying to swap at 7months for a 2 bedroom instead. Is it realistic to expect any availability for 9 consecutive nights at 7months (ssr, okw and akl are more...

    Bought march 2023 says I owe 2022 dues by may this year?

    That makes sense thank you so much. Guess it’s just a typo in their email saying it’s for 2022.

    Hey, I’m a new member who bought grand Floridian march 7th this year with an august use year. Im almost certain they said when I bought that 2022 points were ‘free’ and we didn’t have to pay the dues? I just got an email with a subject of: Your 2023 Annual Dues Statement is now available...

    Animal Kingdom Park???

    Animal kingdom is the second most visited Disney park (according to 2021 report online) so it’s very unlikely they would close it.

    *The Official VILLAS AT DISNEY'S GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA Owners & Lovers Group*

    Wow. Thank you so much for all the replies, it’s very much appreciated. We are going to be in WDW a week on Monday (staying at Caribbean beach) so I think we will look around both riviera and vgf before we make our final decision…but I am leaning vgf! You have reassured me on some of our concerns.

    Trying to decide between vgf and riviera for our first dvc contract. Thought we were set in vgf but having second thoughts. Read a few bits online about the walls being paper thin and being able to hear a lot of noise from neighbours. We have very young children so almost the reverse situation...
