How is Disney Vacation Club, Disney's vacation ownership program,different from traditional time-share programs?
Just as Walt Disney imagineered an amusement park into a theme park, Disney Vacation Club was created on the foundation of earlier time-share programs. What sets Disney's vacation ownership apart from other plans is the Disney difference: gracious hospitality, Disney quality, and creativity throughout. We also offer unprecedented flexibility in choosing among a wide variety of vacation experiences (based on availability, of course).

Why is Disney involved in vacation ownership?
Disney Vacation Club was created in 1991 to meet the needs of families vacationing at the Walt Disney World¨ Resort every year or two years who thought it would be better to own a real-estate interest in a Disney Resort. Today, Disney Vacation Club has grown beyond the Walt Disney World Resort and offers over 60,000 Members magical vacations at over 300 destinations worldwide through Member Getaways.

Where are the Disney Vacation Club Resorts Located?
Currently there are six Disney Vacation Club Resorts.

DISNEY'S BOARDWALK VILLAS in Lake Buena Vista, Florida
DISNEY'S OLD KEY WEST RESORT in Lake Buena Vista, Florida
DISNEY'S VERO BEACH RESORT in Vero Beach, Florida
DISNEY'S HILTON HEAD ISLAND RESORT on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina
THE VILLAS AT DISNEY'S WILDERNESS LODGE in Lake Buena Vista, Florida
DISNEY'S BEACH CLUB VILLAS in Lake Buena Vista, Florida

As a Member, do I always have to stay at a Disney Vacation Club Resort?
Vacation flexibility is key to membership in Disney Vacation Club. As a Member, you may select from any of the six Disney Vacation Club Resorts and several superior Resorts at the Walt Disney World¨ Resort, Disneyland¨ Resort, and Disneyland¨ Resort Paris (subject to availability, of course). Through the Member Getaways Program, you may, for example, exchange reserved Disney Vacation Club Resort accommodations for swimming in Hawaii, skiing the Rocky Mountains, experiencing a safari in Africa, or cruising the tropics through Disney Cruise Line¨.

May I vacation more than once a year?
Yes, that's part of what makes Disney Vacation Club unique. You may vacation as many times as your real-estate interest allows. You may escape to the Walt Disney World¨ Resort in the winter, go on a cruise in the summer, and still enjoy the fall foliage in Vermont.

Is Disney Vacation Club really owned by The Walt Disney Company?
Yes, Disney Vacation Club was created by Disney Vacation Development, Inc., a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company.

If I seek additional information about Disney Vacation Club, will I be pressured to buy?
Although we give you the opportunity to purchase, there is absolutely no pressure or obligation to buy. That is the Disney difference.
