Disney Vacation Club’s newest members are now able to book stays at the highly anticipated Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows. This addition marks a new chapter for DVC members looking to explore unique accommodations within the Disney resort collection. Whether you’re a first-time DVC owner or a seasoned member, this development brings fresh possibilities for your next magical vacation.
Welcome New DVC Owners
As of November 5, 2024, new Disney Vacation Club members who have purchased points at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows can now make reservations for the Island Tower up to 11 months in advance. This early booking window provides a fantastic opportunity for members to plan their visits and secure accommodations at this much-anticipated location.
Island Tower Features and Availability
Set to open on December 17, 2024, Island Tower offers a variety of room types to suit different preferences. Upon its debut, the tower will feature:
- 9 Duo Studios
- 14 Dedicated Studios
- 4 Dedicated One-Bedrooms
- 10 Lockout Two-Bedrooms
- 1 Dedicated Two-Bedroom
- 2 Two-Bedroom Deluxe
Inventory will gradually expand as sales continue, offering nearly full access to the tower’s accommodations for DVC members booking with points. Initially, availability is limited, so new owners are encouraged to reach out to DVC sales representatives to explore options for their “Welcome Home visit.”
Booking Procedures and Considerations
Reservations at Island Tower open daily at 8:00 AM Eastern via the DVC members-only website, but for this particular booking window, members must contact Member Services, available from 9:00 AM Eastern. On November 19, reservations will be accessible to all Disney Vacation Club members, subject to the 7-month booking window for points from other eligible resorts. It’s important to note that some resale marketplace points are not eligible for bookings at the Polynesian or other DVC properties.
Looking Ahead: A New Era for DVC Members
The opportunity to stay at the Island Tower represents a significant enhancement for Disney Vacation Club members. This new addition not only broadens the range of accommodations available at the Polynesian Villas & Bungalows but also reinforces Disney’s commitment to offering diverse and memorable vacation experiences. For those eager to explore this new property, the opening of Island Tower promises a blend of comfort, style, and the enchanting atmosphere that Disney is renowned for delivering.
