    The most common DVC resorts that come up in Interval are SSR (Saratoga) and OKW (Old Key West) and usually 1 bedrooms or studios. Beach Club is pretty rare - a 2 bedroom almost impossible. A 1 bedroom at Beach Club has a slight chance of coming up. SSR and OKW are a lot bigger resorts than Disney's Beach Club Villas. December is VERY popular for the DVC resorts. My mom and dad own DVC points at BCV - they booked a December reservation (using their DVC points) right at their 11 month window day by day (very popular time when Disney is decked out for the holidays).

    To the original poster of this thread - I would stick with Marriott Grande Vista, Marriott Cypress Harbour, or Marriott Royal Palms for a more adult Orlando timeshare and try to avoid school vacations if you want less kids.

      Bing, I will tell you that i was able to exchange for 3 units 11/30 and 12/2/07 - I got a 2BR at SSR for 11/30 and 12/2 and a 1BR at OKW for 12/2/07.
      I put the request in for all (at the time) 5 DVC resorts in November 2006 - I was confirmed into the first SSR unit around January 10, 2007 and the second 2BR mid-February 2007. The 1BR request went in a bit later - maybe January 2007 but was confirmed in mid-February.

      The problem is I do not know how II 'values' the resort you are trading so it is hard for us to advise you on how to proceed.
      As bnoble stated, it is a popular time for DVC owners to use their weeks but with a 12 month lead time, you have a chance IF your resort has the 'juice' to get into DVC. You will also have to realistically expand your search to include ALL DVCs....

      Tell us, when u do an II online search at 7 am eastern-ish (early morning) selecting a 12 month time period from tomorrow to 1 year from now, do you see DVC resorts?
      If you don't - because they are there every day - then that would be a problem.

      Let us know what u see.....
