The "Notice of 2014 Annual Meetings" for each Disney Vacation Club resort--which includes budget figures for the coming year--have begun appearing in members mailboxes. Annual increases range from 1.1% for owners of Disney's BoardWalk Villas and Aulani to a 5.6% increase for owners of Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort.
Disney Vacation Club owners are obligated to pay annual dues in assocation with their timeshare ownership. Dues cover the operating costs of the resort (employees, park transportation, housekeeping, utilities, etc.) as well as property taxes and some allocation for long-term repairs and upgrades.
