Just realized that this may be our only chance to stay at the Poly for a while … we can only make it this time since all 6 of us can fit in a studio while DD2 qualifies as an infant. I guess we could do two studios someday, but the Bungalows are too rich for my blood (as awesome as they look). Glad we took our chance while we could!

I’d love to stay at the Poly again. It was my first on-property resort, but it was also back in the early 80s.

It’s not that. It’s the way you sneak into all these pics.
It’s very… sneaky.

Have the best time! We stayed in a Poly studio our first time as a family in 2018 and there was no turning back. Everything about it was absolute perfection! Your kids will love the pool too! And being on the monorail is perfect with kids in tow.

We are checking in there tomorrow afternoon. 
I am very excited to stay for the first time!
We will be moving to Pop on Sunday so won’t be there when you arrive.

In case anyone is curious, I entered my room request in the room finder yesterday afternoon. It sent at 8:18am Eastern this morning, per my Dashboard. So they must batch those emails and send them the next morning if you are within 30 days.
Also, here are the four sites I was scouring for dedicated reservations. I have either seen good reviews of them online (DVC Rental Store, DVC Shop Rentals) or used them myself (David’s, DVC-Rental) with satisfactory results:
There are many more. I looked multiple times a day over the last month and while deals came and go, it wasn’t until 5 days before my trip that the perfect reservation popped up, saving me over $1K.

Damn your trip report is going to make me want to go again next fall. I can feel it! I REALLY want to stay at the Poly too.

You’re gonna get nothing but enabling from me, I’m afraid! 
Which one did you end up getting it from?

I LOVE Poly. LOVE.
Wish they had more than studios and bungalows

Oh I have no doubt about this!! And we are going in our 2022 use year timeframe. Originally that was April 2023 but it felt too far away. So we said maybe Dec, then maybe Nov… But the call of fall at WDW is really strong in our family! And I feel like I have a better shot at Poly in Oct than Nov/Dec… Decisions!

Definitely do it 
ASAP is a good plan. That volcano pool is hella fun, and the Oasis is such an escape.
I really feel the immersed at that resort. The music, the tiki torches…
Damn. I wanna go back.

I’ve been watching this for like three straight minutes and giggling. Incredible gif deployment.

Just a coincidence that they had the contract I wanted.

I realize this thread is older, but I wanted to ask you about DVC Shop Rentals. Have you used them before? I have rented points with DVC Rental Store several times with no issues. But DVC Shop Rentals has a confirmed reservation at BWV that I might want. I had never heard of them before, but your thread popped up when I put their name into the search feature here. Thanks!

I haven’t used them but they seemed legit. One thing I did when I was considering using DVC-Rentals was to search Disboards for commentary. You’ll usually see testimonials for all the reputable vendors.

Just starting to check into the whole DVC rental arena. Thanks for these links. Do owners sometimes post availability on more than one broker site, or are these listings always exclusive?
