Rental Perks

It’s important to note that when Rentees rent points from DVC members, they receive nearly all of the perks that DVC members do when they stay at DVC resorts. In fact, a Rentee’s Keys to the Kingdom card (Room Card) will say “DVC Member” on it. This will enable a Rentee to receive various discounts, pool hop to other Disney resorts (with the exception of the Beach Club and Animal Kingdom Lodge), utilize free valet parking at DVC resorts, and so on. Upon arrival at the resort, the Rentee will receive a booklet called “Pocket Perks” which summarizes the discounts currently offered.

One particularly valuable perk that rentees may choose to take advantage of is access to the popular Magic Your Way Dining Plan (For 2008, $37.99 per night for ages 10 and up, $9.99 per night for children ages 3 - 9. For more information, click here)and the new Magic Your Way Deluxe Dining Plan (For 2008, $69.99 per night for ages 10 and up, $10.99 per night for children ages 3 - 9. For more information, click here). Dining plans must be added to the reservation prior to arrival at the resort.
One noteworthy exception to the "perks" rule is the DVC member discount on Walt Disney World Annual Passes. Stringent guidelines surrounding this particular discount exclude all but the owner of the DVC contract and immediate family members.
