Today, I'm going to cover the monorail loop, the resorts right around Magic Kingdom.
And then we're also gonna pick up Wilderness Lodge because it's in the close vicinity.
All of these resorts also offer DVC rooms or honestly complete DVC sections of the resort.
It's Disney's timeshare program where people can buy in and get points to use for their hotel rooms.
Now, even though these sectioned off areas of the resort are specifically DVC rooms, and a lot of times that just means this is where you're gonna find your suites, your kitchenettes or full kitchens, really to make it more like a home away from home.
Normally, the availability is gonna come open to them first before it does the general public.
With some of the more basic DVC rooms at these resorts specifically, I've just found it to maybe be a different configuration in a different area of the resort.
But a lot of times you're getting very similar layouts and amenities that you would if you were just staying in a regular room at any of these hotels.
