The ambiance evokes the timeless class of Palm Beach’s golden era, yet with just a few more steps, you’ll find yourself at the Beach Pool, where an 181-foot waterslide and children’s pool prove this DVC rental hasn’t lost its sense of fun. Also contrasting the resort’s Victorian theming is Grand Floridian’s futuristic monorail station, connecting you to the Magic Kingdom in just one stop.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa offers a wide assortment of on-site dining options.

Looking for kid-friendly fare with a side of magical memories? At 1900 Park Fare, you can dine with all your favorite Disney characters. Or, for a more grownup good time, head to Mizner’s Lounge, Citricos Lounge, or the Courtyard Pool Bar for expertly crafted cocktails.
Of course, many of the amenities at this DVC rental are geared specifically toward the young ones. This is Disney, after all! From children’s activities to campfire singalongs to Movies Under the Stars and Pirate Adventure Cruises, your little Mouseketeers are sure to have a blast at this deluxe Disney resort.
Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort – Best DVC Rental Location
From Disney’s flagship resort, we move to Disney’s flagship park, or at least as close as you can get to it. Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort boasts the best DVC rental location due to its proximity to the Magic Kingdom. Here, you can stay just 5 minutes from the magic, with a designated footpath leading directly to the park’s main gate. You can even book a room with theme park views, letting you enjoy the nightly fireworks display from the comfort of your own villa.
As well as unparalleled convenience to the Magic Kingdom, Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort offers quick and easy access to many other premier Orlando attractions, including International Drive, Universal Studios, and SeaWorld. But you don’t have to leave the resort to have a great time on your vacation. On-site, you’ll find tons of fun amenities for kids and grownups alike. On Bay Lake, a nightly water parade dazzles with music and choreographed lights dancing on the water. By day, outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of the lakeside setting with boat and fishing equipment rentals.
You’ll find several great on-site dining options at the Contemporary. Head to the California Grill for award-winning brunch and dinner options inspired by the Golden State. Or, reserve a table at Chef Mickey’s to dine with characters from your favorite Disney movies.
Disney’s Old Key West Resort – Best DVC Rental for Travelers on a Budget
One of the main advantages of renting DVC points vs being a DVC member is the savings. But if your budget is really tight, then Disney’s Old Key West Resort is for you. Built as the first DVC resort in 1991, this charming resort has been a favorite of Disney Vacation Club members for over 30 years. However, you don’t have to be a DVC member to stay at this Key West-themed timeshare. When you rent DVC points, you can enjoy Old Key West’s fun-filled amenities and upscale accommodations without the long-term commitment. And with the comparatively low price of renting DVC points combined with the relatively low price of this particular DVC rental, you can save a ton.
Of course, low prices doesn’t mean low quality. On the contrary, the one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas at this DVC rental are among the largest in DVC’s portfolio, giving you plenty of bang for your buck. Moreover, the resort offers a surfeit of luxury amenities designed to enhance the fun and convenience of your stay. A children’s pool lets your little ones burn off some of that vacation energy, while the main pool offers hours of sun-soaked relaxation. Want to take your relaxation up a notch? Book a massage, facial, or mani/pedi at the spa.
Located on the island hamlet of Conch Flats, Disney’s Old Key West Resort offers an immersive Key West-style experience, complete with shimmering waterways and swaying palms. But while you might feel like you’re in Key West, this DVC rental is just minutes from the Walt Disney World Resort, as well as Universal Studios, SeaWorld, and International Drive.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Villas – Best-Themed DVC Resort
Disney’s Old Key West Resort is sure to put you in the conch spirit with its immersive theming. But if you want to feel like you’ve traveled to another continent, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Villas is as immersive as it gets. With a lush on-site savannah and free-roaming game, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas transports you to the heart of Africa. And with its Kraal-inspired, horseshoe-shaped design, the resort ensures every guest can see the wildlife from their villa. But while a giraffe fogging up your window is a pretty obvious bit of theming, look closer. Disney Imagineers have gone to great lengths to make sure every detail is convincingly African, going so far as to import tons of authentic artifacts all the way from the Dark Continent itself.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas comprises two phases: Jambo House and Kidani Village. Guests staying at either phase enjoy access to the full range of resort amenities, including animal programs, four restaurants, a zero-entry pool, an arcade, and a massage and fitness center. Moreover, the resort is conveniently located for access not only to Animal Kingdom, but Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and other premier Orlando attractions.
Accommodations at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Villas feature safari-chic decor and all the comforts of home. Choose from a studio suite, one- or two-bedroom villa, or ultra-luxe grand villa, all with plush beds and sleeper sofas, spacious living and dining areas, internet access, and a patio or balcony.

If you’re on a budget, you can also simply stroll the boardwalk and enjoy the free live entertainment courtesy of eccentric street performers.
While you’ll find more than enough to do on-site at the resort, Disney’s Boardwalk Villas also offers convenient access to all Disney parks, with ferry rides to Hollywood Studios, a five-minute walk to EPCOT, and bus service to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, and Disney’s two water parks.
