Stretch Out in Spacious Villas

Tired of cramming the whole family into a tiny hotel room? DVC says, “No more!” Their resorts offer a fantastic variety of studio and villa accommodations that feel more like a home away from home. Whether you’re planning a cozy getaway for a small family or a big reunion with a dozen loved ones, DVC villas are designed to fit everyone comfortably. From deluxe studios to sprawling multi-bedroom grand villas, there’s plenty of space for everyone to unwind and recharge after a busy day.
The best part? One-bedroom and larger DVC villas come with amazing “just-like-home” amenities. We’re talking multiple separate bedrooms, bathrooms, a living area, a dining space, and even a washer and dryer unit. And here’s a game-changer: a fully equipped kitchen! This isn’t just for late-night snacks; it’s a budget-saving superpower. You can whip up breakfast before hitting the parks, saving a ton of money on dining out. Plus, it’s a simple way to create cherished memories, whether you’re baking cookies or enjoying a home-cooked meal together.
But the magic doesn’t stop there. Many DVC resorts boast one-of-a-kind accommodations that transform your vacation into something truly unforgettable. Imagine retreating into the wilderness in a cabin at the brand-new Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, or waking up to a breathtaking sunrise over Seven Seas Lagoon in a private, two-bedroom overwater bungalow at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows. And guess what? You don’t even have to be a DVC member to book these incredible villas!
Stay in the Heart of the Adventure

One of the biggest perks of DVC resorts is their prime locations right in the middle of the magic at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. We’re talking walking distance to the theme parks, easy monorail access, and spectacular views that might even include some fireworks!
Being so close means you can truly do Disney your way. Want to be at Disney’s Hollywood Studios right when it opens to snag a prime spot for the new Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After? Just hop on the Disney Skyliner from Disney’s Riviera Resort. Do your little ones need a quick afternoon nap before catching the Paint the Night parade at Disneyland Park? Your room at the Villas at Disneyland Hotel is just a quick stroll away. The convenience of being so close to all the fun means more time for you and your family to make unforgettable memories, and less time worrying about commuting.
Unwind in Style at Exclusive Member Lounges

DVC membership isn’t just about where you stay; it’s about how you experience Disney with your crew. After all that walking, riding attractions, and snack-hopping through the parks, your steps really add up! Need a mid-day break from the hustle and bustle for you and your little ones? This is where DVC really shines.
Eligible members and their guests can escape to DVC member lounges. These are peaceful oases with comfy seating, complimentary beverages, charging stations, and much-needed air conditioning – the perfect spot to pause, recharge, and soak in a little quiet. In Florida, eligible members can kick back at the Disney Vacation Club McKim’s Mile House – A Member Lounge in Magic Kingdom Park, or the Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium – A Member Lounge atop the Imagination pavilion at EPCOT. Over on the West Coast, members can relax among the stars at Disney Vacation Club Star View Station – a Member Lounge, located in Tomorrowland at Disneyland Park.
Unlock Extra Magic

Discounts, lounges, special events – oh my! DVC members get to enjoy a whole new world of extras that add a little extra pixie dust to your vacation plans. One of the most beloved perks is special experiences like Moonlight Magic. These exclusive after-hours events are just for eligible members and feature shorter wait times for attractions, complimentary snacks, and even rare character meet-and-greets you won’t find anywhere else.
