We are DVC members taking last minute trip week after Christmas. We are staying at a value resort due to no availability with DVC resort. Can we use pool at Saratoga Springs or Old Key West?
Officially, no. Terminology is that you need to be "staying on your membership," which would be a points or DVC member cash discount.
Pool hopping also has blackout dates. This year's blackout dates include December 22, 2017 through January 2, 2018. So even if there is occasional flex on the "staying on membership," the blackout dates are pretty firm.
