If you love talking about Disney deluxe resorts and want real, honest insight into Disney club level and how to rent DVC points without stress, this episode is for you. I’m joined by my friend Marianne Southerland, who has stayed at every resort on the property and is renovating the most beautiful Disney-inspired lake house. We dive into what actually matters when choosing Disney deluxe resorts, how Disney club level really feels in practice, and who should buy versus rent DVC points.
In this episode, we talk about:
• The real differences between Disney deluxe resorts and everything else
• When Disney club level is worth the cost, and why some families swear by it
• The pros and cons of buying DVC compared to choosing to rent DVC points
• Why convenience at Disney deluxe resorts matters more for families with little ones
• How to stay flexible when the parks get overwhelming
• Marianne’s Disney-inspired renovation, including her Tower of Terror elevator
You’ll hear why we both think Disney deluxe resorts create a totally different trip experience, how Disney club level can simplify your mornings, and why many families prefer to rent DVC points instead of buying in. And if you love home design, the Disney-inspired touches in Marianne’s lake house will make your day.
What’s YOUR take? Do you think Disney deluxe resorts, Disney club level stays, or choosing to rent DVC points actually change the pace of your Disney trips? Let’s discuss it over on IG: @somewhereworthwhile.
