    Can I book using points at a non DVC resort like Port Orleans?

    Welcome home Karin and welcome to planDisney! 

    I’m a fellow Disney Vacation Club owner, and I really don’t think I can imagine life without the convenience and flexibility that DVC allows our family.   

    One of those flexible and convenient things is the ability to book a stay at one of the Moderate resorts at Walt Disney World like Disney’s Port Orleans Resort-Riverside or Disney’s Port Orleans Resort-French Quarter.  

    To book the stay, contact Disney Vacation Club Member Services and they will check availability and the number of points needed and make the booking for you.  There will be a one-time transaction fee for this booking unless you have purchased the Membership Magic Beyond option for the year.  

    Our family is so happy to have home resorts at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows and Copper Creek Villas and Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.  The nostalgic feel of the Polynesian and its spectacular views of the Magic Kingdom always make me feel at home!  We especially love the Wilderness Lodge lobby during the holidays, and I've been known to pull up a seat near the fireplace a few times!   

    We also love the Port Orleans resorts! I’m partial to the French Quarter with its quaint and cozy feeling and of course the beignets.  Don’t forget the beignets!   

    Karin, I hope you find your welcome home no matter where you stay! Have a Mickey Bar and enjoy your trip!
