Older resorts receive price bump

Financial News & Pricing

As Disney Vacation Club launches sales for Copper Creek Villas & Cabins, most of the older resorts see their prices climb higher.  

Bay Lake Tower

While Disney Vacation Club chooses to focus its sales efforts on its newest properties, a resort is never truly "sold out" since DVC is able to reacquire points in small increments.  These points are most readily available to existing owners looking to add gradually to their holdings.  But buyers of the older properties are faced with dwindling contract lengths and rising prices.  

Effective immediately, DVC has increased its direct sale prices by $5 per point on most older resorts.  



To add-on additional points at Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, Villas at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel or Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort will now cost $185 per point, despite those contracts having as little as 43 years of ownership remaining.  The popular Disney's Beach Club Villas is up to $165 per point with only 25 years left on the contract.  At the low end of the spectrum, Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort and Disney's Vero Beach Resort can be had for just $115 per point for 25 years of ownership.  

By contrast, current DVC members can now buy a full 50-year contract at Copper Creek for $176 less incentives.  Discounts on a 200-point purchase take the rate down to about $167 per point.  

Naturally these are prices for a purchase direct from Disney Vacation Club.  Resale brokers incuding our sponsors at The Timeshare Store offer alternatives which are much more economical than a direct purchase.  Resale contracts offer the same rights and privileges as points purchased direct from DVC, except that buyers may be excluded from Membership Magic perks programs and certain non-DVC uses of the points.
