I'm so excited that DVC has opened up regular rooms to be rented with points at the Grand Californian again! The following is from the Member Website:
"Disney Vacation Club is pleased to announce the return of traditional hotel rooms at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa to the Disney Collection effective April 1, 2012.
While removing these hotel rooms from the Disney Collection at the opening of Disney Vacation Club villas at the property was consistent with other Disney Vacation Club mixed-use resorts, the high demand for, and limited supply of, Disneyland Resort accommodations has prompted this rare exception to the rule.
An updated 2012 Disneyland Resort in California reservation point chart is available now on DVCMember.com.
This addition to the Disney Collection comes as the Happiest Place on Earth gets even happier this summer with the highly anticipated opening of Buena Vista Street and Cars Land at Disney California Adventure Park. Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa features its own convenient entrance to the dramatically expanded Theme Park."
So, that brings to mind this question. With Grand Californian being sold out so quickly, and there obviously being a greater demand for DVC rooms in California, do you think DVC will be looking to build another property at the Disneyland Resort? I know it's a crazy touchy issue, fraught with difficulties due to DLR being closed in on, on all sides. Where could they fit in more DVC Rooms? 70% of DLR's Guests are local vs. only 30% local at WDW. Should they make the effort to even try?
