When booking a hotel at Disneyland Resort or Walt Disney World, many factors go into choosing where to stay. Value, quality, proximity to the park, and even how long you plan to spend in the room rather than out and about can determine which resort is right for you. Sometimes, the best choice is at a Disney-owned resort, other times it can be a partner hotel, and sometimes it may be a rental home off-property. But for many, a Disney Vacation Club room is just what they need, balancing the luxury and theming of a Disney hotel with practical home applications. Here are three reasons why a DVC resort may be right for you.
1. Kitchens and Kitchenettes
One of the standout differences between a standard hotel room and a DVC room is the included kitchen space. Standard villas have full kitchens and studio villas, the smaller ones, have kitchenettes.
Kitchens include:
- Full-sized refrigerator with a freezer
- Microwave oven
- Conventional oven
- Four burner electric cooktop
- Full-sized dishwasher
- Full-sized sink
- Full-sized stacked clothes washer/dryer
- Reusable metal cutlery
- Reusable plates and bowls
- Glasses of varying sizes
- Variety of table and steak knives
- Various cooking pots and pans
- Standard toaster
- Coffee maker
- Cookware
- Kitchen cleaning materials
Kitchenettes include:
- Mini fridge
- Microwave oven
- Small sink
- Single-use plastic cutlery
- Paper plates and bowls
- Paper cups and ceramic mugs
- Standard toaster
- Coffee maker
- kitchen cleaning materials
Including a kitchen in your room can greatly benefit guests who may prefer their own cooking, have dietary restrictions, or are vacationing on a budget and wish to save on eating in the parks. It also creates a more homey atmosphere than a standard hotel room.
2. Dedicated Resorts and Specialty Rooms
Many hotels such as Disneyland Hotel and Disney’s Contemporary Resort offer standard rooms and DVC rooms, but some resorts at Walt Disney World are specifically catered to DVC. Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa, a resort thematically inspired by 1800s New York is one of these DVC resorts. One of the unique aspects of this resort is the “Treehouse Villas.” These rooms are raised off the ground and sit in a quaint forest.
Other unique DVC locations include Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Bungalows and even Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa in Hawai’i.

3. Incredible Value
Many guests think that a Disney hotel will always be out of their budget, with resorts like Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort being their only affordable option. While Disney hotels can certainly be expensive, staying in a DVC room does not have to be!
This is where our friends at DVC Rental Store come in. DVC Rental Store is a platform for Disney Vacation Club members to sell their unused points to any interested buyers.
