    Sanaa: Lunch or Dinner?

    Another vote for lunch. Plus, I tend to eat less at lunch so it works perfectly when we order the bread service, some wine, and then maybe split an entree or have an additional appetizer as a meal. Also, if you have any "pickier eaters" the Sanaa Burger at lunch is really good! In regards to...

    Split stay. Will all our days open when our 1st resort stay opens?

    You will need to wait to book dining for the 2nd half of your split stay. It will be the 60 days from the start of the second stay. I just had to do this a few weeks ago.

    trying to get ADRs, is it still this HARD!??

    I just wanted to give some hope regarding reservations, since I was worried going into by booking window. My window opened up today for a trip 6/5 - 6/9 and I was on at 6AM and was able to book the following: Topolinos for a 5:50PM dinner (2 people), Homecoming brunch at 10:15AM (3 people)...

    Favorite DVC Resort Ranking

    We have stayed at all of them except VGF and CC/BR. As noted by others we like different ones for different reasons. We don't always visit parks when we go, so for those vacations we like hotels that offer onsite activities or great pools. We like BCV for the awesome pool w/ lazy river. We...

    Homecoming reservations

    Hey everyone. I saw on the boards people mentioning that they were able to call Homecoming directly to get reservations they couldn't get through the Disney reservation system. Can anyone confirm they have done this and tell me how far in advance I can call and book?

    Split stay

    I have split stayed at up to 5 resorts in 12 days. Yes, you are without a room from checkout until check-in but if you have something planned during that time (i.e. pool time, park, Disney Springs) I don't find it that disruptive. I like that it feels like I am on different vacations just by...

    San Angel Inn Reservation - Wait in Line?

    You will go to the appropriate cast member (ours was found under the yellow umbrella) and they will direct you to an alternative entrance. They told us we could only arrive about 15 minutes before our scheduled reservation and when we did we had to show them our dining confirmation. Then we...

    Disney Springs Capacity?

    We were just there November 7 - 15th. We had reservations at Boathouse on Saturday, November 7th. Since we arrived to Florida that day we couldn't head to the reservation until 6PM. When we arrived (by car) signs said it hit capacity. I called the Boathouse directly and was told they "hold"...

    Disney Springs buses

    Can anyone that has been there in the last few weeks tell me currently how early buses depart hotels for DS? We have a 10:40AM reservation at Homecoming in a few weeks and wanted to know if we will have the option to bus. Thank you.

    DVC parking costs

    Hey everyone - need some help. We have been DVC a few years (resale) but have never rented a car during our stay. We are thinking about renting a car for our trip this November. Can you help me understand parking costs. For the first 3 nights we are using points at Old Key West so I...

    Resort availability overload!

    Last week I was able to get a AK concierge studio for 2 nights for the first week of June. Hopefully concierge will be up and running by then. I have owned for years at AK and haven't ever been able to snag concierge even first thing at 11 months (I am too lazy to try walking). Fingers...

    Steak - Cali Grill or Narcoossee's

    Seems like Narcoossee's may be the way to go. I haven't been in years, so it I am excited to try it again. I usually find the CG menu more diverse for non-beef eaters, but with the current limited menus I actually like what Narcoossee's is offering. Thanks to everyone for the input.

    Steak - Cali Grill or Narcoossee's

    Need your help. Between California Gril and Narcoossee's who has the better steak? These are the 2 restaurants I can choose from this November (I know many will have other restaurants they prefer for steak). The kind of steak doesn't matter (i.e. filet vs sirloin), but these guys are coming...

    Has anyone tried Paddlefish at DS

    We ate at Boathouse in July. We love their food, but out of all the restaurants I felt they did the worst in regards to social distancing. There was quite a few tables that I didn't feel were actually 6 ft apart and they were not leaving tables empty (all were full when we went). They sat us...

    Early Check-In?

    We stayed 7/16 - 7/28 and split stayed at 4 different resorts. AKL Jambo ready at 4PM (not early), Riviera ready at 2PM, BLT ready at 4:30PM (late), and BCV didn't send out room texts until after 5PM. There were a few frustrated guests at BCV.

    Anyone with a split stay and info on moving luggage and groceries?!

    I asked about luggage transfer when talking to DVC member services yesterday. They stated they were transferring luggage (didn't ask about groceries). I have a split stay between 4 DVC resorts so hoping that is the case.

    Animal Kingdom Villas - Jambo House Closed for Initial Walt Disney World Resort Reopening

    I have talked to 2 different cast members today and both are saying Jambo doesn't have an official opening date. I am still awaiting a call from the supervisor. I would prefer to stay in Jambo, but if it isn't open next week I just want to know they will move me without having to use...

    Animal Kingdom Villas - Jambo House Closed for Initial Walt Disney World Resort Reopening

    I have a reservation in a value studio at Jambo on 7/16. I called today since I haven't received a call about moving me. The member services agent said they can't move me unless I am willing to spend more points which I don't have. Did anyone got a complimentary move from Jambo to Kidani for...
