Beginning immediately, DVC Members are able to book "Short Stays" ONLINE at dvcmember.com!
The Short Stays exchange program, operated through Interval International, allows Members to book a quick getaway (ranging from three to six nights) directly through II. Booking windows are from 30 - 4 days prior to check-in.
Each time Members visit the site (which can be visited by accessing the Member site and then navigating to "Interval International" in the "Plan My Vacation" menu), they'll find a different listing of resorts pre-populated on the Exchange tab, based on the inventory that's typically available. A listing can either be chosen from among those available (current resorts include Palm Desert, VA Beach/Wlilliamsburg, Branson, NH, Scottsdale/Sedona, and MA), or a search can be performed. After other criteria (dates, etc.) are entered, available resorts will be presented. Searches may be performed multiple times. Icons listed next to the resort will reveal additional information about the resorts upon mouse roll-over. In addition, the number of Vacation Points required for the exchange will be displayed next to each available resort.
Clicking the "Exchange" button will take members to the booking screen. Members will have 18 minutes to complete the transaction. If the transaction is not completed in that time, the booking will be returned to inventory.
Booking information (including resort requirements) should be reviewed carefully.
DVC will confirm that Members have enough points reserve the exchange, and a final confirmation will be sent by mail or email once the transaction has been finalized.
A $75 transaction fee applies.
Prior to using points from a Member's current UY, DVC will first utilize and banked, borrowed, or holding points for an exchange. Next, the current UY's points will be used. Finally, if necessary, the following UY's points will be borrowed from a master contract.
**Stays longer than six nights must be booked through Member Services.
