Google · I've used DVC Rental Store twice now, once 3 years ago and once just a few weeks ago, and both times it's been a great way to save a lot of money on DVC rooms. I have to say I'm getting spoiled at Disney resorts staying in DVC rooms as they always have a full kitchen, or kitchenette and just generally more spacious. Renting points with DVC Store, I got the room much below market cost by going directly to Disney themselves. Our most recent trip was to Disneyland last week and we stayed at a Deluxe Villa at the Disneyland hotel. Our cost per night was significantly less by booking through DVC Rental Store. And, we also wound up saving a little money by buying our park tickets through them as well. I feel like DVC Rental Store makes the overall process really easy. There are some hoops they have to jump through with the original DVC owners they are reselling with so that they can book the reservation under your name, but both times for us, the process was fairly quick and painless. The last one I had the reservation complete on my account within 24 hours, but I can't imagine that being the case every time because again I believe there is coordination that has to be done with the original DVC owner and their availability might be questionable. The only thing that I cannot speak to is we never had to cancel any one of our trips, fortunately! So if there is a cancelation, I cannot speak to how canceling a trip and recouping money would work. They do give you a lot of warning about their cancelation policy as well as a reimbursement schedule as to how much they can reimburse you relative to how close you are to the scheduled stay. So needless to say I'm a bundle of nerves because you never know what life can throw at you and the idea of losing money on a trip you cannot make makes me a bit ill. But hey, we didn't have to learn that lesson, so YAY! That worry aside, I absolutely plan to use DVC Rental Store again for our future trips because I really have come to love the DVC room experience on property versus a regular room (that more often than not doesn't even have a tiny microwave in them).
