The newest rooms at Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa are now available for booking with an anticipated grand opening of June 20, 2022.
The newest additions to Disney Vacation Club are set to make their debut on the last day of spring.
Resort Studios at the Grand Floridian are projected to open on June 20, 2022. In total, new construction at the Big Pine Key building will add 202 studio rooms to the program. Half of them have already been declared into the Condominium Assocation, and will be initially available for booking by members using points. Additional rooms are expected to be added to member inventory as sales progress.
Beginning March 14, 2022, owners at the Grand Floridian can book the Resort Studios for any check in date from June 20 through February 14, 2023, with the 11-month booking window applicable going forward. This applies to both DVC members who recently added points at the Grand Floridian and to those who have owned the resort dating back to its 2013 inception. The original stand-alone DVC building and the new Resort Studios located in Big Pine Key are all part of the same condo association with owners having equal rights to reserve all rooms.
New Grand Floridian buyers can use their points toward any reservations beginning June 20 or the start of their 2022 Use Year, whichever is later. Points cannot be used for any destination within the system until the owned units have joined the timeshare program, which is June 20 for many buyers of the Big Pine Key espansion. Those with Use Years of August, September, October and December will not receive their first set of points until the start of their 2022 Use Year. However, these owners may borrow up to 50% of their points for use toward earlier reservations.
Currently, owners can only make reservations for the Resort Studios by calling DVC Member Services.
Beginning on May 13, 2022, reservations for the Resort Studios will move online with access open to all DVC members. On that date, owners of other DVC properties will be able to reserve Resort Studios for arrival dates between June 20 and December 13, with future dates subject to the 7 month window.
