DVCNews.com has learned that conversion work on the Disney Vacation Club models at the Disneyland Resort is progressing rapidly, and Disney has a timeframe in mind for unveiling the models to the general public.
Many DVC members were initially disappointed when its first west coast expansion was announced. That disappointment is rooted in the terribly small scope of DVC's first Disneyland-based resort--a meager fifty villas a the Grand Californian Hotel. Well, Honor Hunter tells us there may yet be more villas added to the queue.
Although construction began back in September 2007, little is currently known regarding the DVC project at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel. We know there will be a total of fifty DVC Villas and we've seen a couple pieces of concept art. But otherwise Disney has been rather quiet on the subject. That didn't stop us from doing a little digging of our own.
Our own Dave Welty braved near-capacity holiday crowds at Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure to snap some new photos of construction work on the Grand Californian DVC villas.
For over a decade Disney has used the same basic room layout for DVC resorts ranging from the BoardWalk to the Beach Club to Saratoga Springs. That is, until 2007 saw us introduced to larger units at the Animal Kingdom Villas' Kidani Village. So what will Disney use at the Grand Californian Hotel?
