No worries.... I woudl bet anything that you look back at this as one of the best decisions of your life.
(I have stayed at all of the DVC's except Vero and never had a bad expereince.
...and then I saw threads about issues with mousekeeping, then read some threads about problems with wear & tear, then read some threads about not getting dates that you want, then got myself all worked up and questioning our decision.
I am feeling much better!
Has anyone out there ever gotten tired of going to Disney? Does the magic seem to diminsh over the years that you have owned DVC?
Remember............1/7th of Snow White's friends was Grumpy; it's probably the same proportion on the Dis-boards.
Think of all the 6/7th's that are Happy (yes, I know that some are Sleepy, Dopey, Bashful............yada, yada, yada..............)
Whenever I read a report from a member who has had problems, I ask myself 3 questions:
1. Is this an issue I personally would find objectionable? What is important to one member may be trivial to another. (Room locations, views, walking distances, transportation times)
2. If it is a situation I would find objectionable, how did the member deal with the problem. (Handle it themselves, report it to the staff, or simply ignore it)
3. If the problem was reported to the resort staff, what was the resolution? (handled to member's satisfaction, not resolved, required multiple call-backs for resolution)
Though every situation is different, I find it a valuable aid for problem solving when I can read about the issues other members have experienced and in the process gain a bit of understanding about how DVC handles these incidents. If I ever find myself in a similar boat, I'm able to use the collective experiences of the DIS board DVC members in order to make a decision on how best to resolve my issue.
Ahh, a fellow geek, eh? I have a spreadsheet laid out with points calculations to year 2014. I find myself thinking about this stuff every day. Sure wish I could earn a dollar on it.
Well, I have to say that I think there is some substance to every single thing that you mentioned. The DVC rooms, IMO, are NOT as well maintained as cash rooms. .
I am feeling much better!
Has anyone out there ever gotten tired of going to Disney? Does the magic seem to diminsh over the years that you have owned DVC? I know that is a very strange question. I have been 17 times to WDW and cant imagine getting sick of it but you never know. I also work in an industry that connects me to Disney every day so I worry that I will get Mouse burnout. Ever had that happen? Maybe I just need to buy even more points.....
