Sure, we’ll probably see some lower December prices for this room as the end of the year approaches… BUT fewer than a dozen 7-nighters over 2 years were at this price or lower.

For all multi-night listings: Two years ago, large number of listings in this price range for June, but most of those appeared back out at 11 months. Last year almost crickets.

For 7-nights: there was one last year. This is a GRAB IT NOW Deal

I got so worked up over that Grand Flo listing, I almost missed this one:

This is at the bottom of the December price range for this room vs all multi-night listings.
Very few 6-nighters seen!

If you are OK with booking a rental 11 months out, this is actually a great price for March.
FWIW: Most of the 5-night or longer listings appear right now at 11 months out - with another smattering possible about 50-75 days out.

After seeing both those SSR and GF almost back-to-back, I am SO curious if there is any pattern as far as popular months for amazing last minute deals. Like, -45% or better, start date within a week.
I’m wondering if people hold on so long to April listings because it’s a popular Disney travel month and so they keep it high high high and only drop it at the last possible second. Or likewise, maybe that would be so for Dec-Feb start dates. Maybe you’d see fewer hot last minute deals for the summer, or October. Whenever slow Disney travel months are… if they exist… which I’m realizing as I type that they may not :laughing:

We are definitely in a transition from many, many, 1-night listings to longer ones, so we are likely in flux now.

There are “sort of” general patterns for when things tend to show up, but I still really can’t say there is any sort of rule like “wait until 14-days before and you’ll see a bunch of price drops.”

It is all very randomish. A weird combination of some human factor and some business decisions has them listing TONS of rentals at really high prices that never change. Only something like 18% of all listings ever change in price.

I do plan to publish some comprehensive standard charts on my search engine site, but I have to get my cats in a row and make that site something more useful than just the simple pages I threw out there.

oh my goodness - so many good ones today

I need to get myself situated and zone in on what I really want to watch for. You shared at least three today that historically would fit my schedule, but I have no idea what is going on this year

Will we see some lower prices for September? Yes.
Will they be 6-nighters? Not likely, or if so: very few of them.

Not a high volume room in May.
There have been some much lower priced listings, but they are a bit rando - AND this one is Theme Park View, so I’m calling this price drop a very nice deal.
