Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Michelle!
You are as welcome as can be here at planDisney. Thank you so much for visiting us with your question. How exciting that you are planning ahead for your next Disney vacation, and while it may seem far away now, it will be just around the riverbend before you know it.
Michelle, when it comes to
Disney Vacation Club Villas and Deluxe Studios, eligible
Disney Vacation Club Members can make reservations using their Vacation Points at their
Home Resort beginning 11 months in advance of their check-in date. If eligible, Disney Vacation Club Members can make reservations at all other DVC Resorts beginning 7 months in advance of their check-in date.
While some Villas and Deluxe Studios may be available now for cash-paying Guests, typically the full availability isn't available until six or so months ahead of a check-in time, so that Disney Vacation Club Members have the option to book first. That said, I do see some availability for cash-paying Guests at the Disney Vacation Club Resorts now for early May 2026. If you do not see what you are looking for at this time, I would recommend checking back as availability changes regularly, often in the same day, as Guests' plans change. We have been able to secure bookings within three months of our stay, simply by checking back daily.
I hope this helps you, Michelle! If you have any further Disney Vacation Club questions, soar back here to see me and I'll be so happy to help you.
Magically Yours,
Keri
