page! Also, a MousePlanet reader provided a new
financial analysis of DVC ownership that's well worth reading!
There's also copies of press
releases of the newest DVC resorts being built or in the planning
stages that you may want to read!
Time shares, or vacation ownership, is hardly a new
idea. People have been buying and selling time share resort
properties all over the world for many years now. In fact,
many of the largest and most prosperous time share companies are
located right in central Florida...in the back yard of Walt Disney
World.
The Disney Vacation Club is Disney's attempt to fight
back against these successful competitors. It's not
really a pure "time share" in which you own a portion
of your vacation property. Instead, it's a lease of that property
that has an expiration date. It's really more of a pre-paid
vacation plan than anything else.
On these pages, I've done my best to document the
Disney Vacation Club and it's program. If you vacation frequently
-- especially if you vacation frequently at Walt Disney World --
this is a program you really should consider. On the other
hand, if you're an infrequent (every few years or so) guest at WDW,
you're not going to find the DVC a great bargain.
