More Disneyland Villas News DVC announces that the Villas at the Disneyland Hotel will officially open on September 28, 2023. There is currently no information on point charts or when the resort will go on sale for DVC members, but eligible DVC members can book cash rooms starting March 15th. We have reached out to Disney, and currently, they cannot share pricing or the length of the booking window for cash rooms. E-mails have been posted to some members about sales “coming soon.” The indication is that the minimum purchase will be 150 points at $227 per point. Note on the DVC website it says that the resort is “Not yet registered in all jurisdictions.” which may be an indication of why we haven’t seen a sales announcement.

This was unannounced, so it was a pleasant surprise for fans. Indications are the characters will continue to meet there for the foreseeable future. Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser Voyages Frequency Reduced Starting in October 2023, the schedule for the Galatic Starcruiser will reduce to only two weekly trips. Disney contacted travel agents to indicate that this will be the new standard as they “have adjusted voyage dates to meet the needs of our guests”.

In addition, a 6 PM window will be used for the extended deluxe hours in the park that DVC visitors can access. There will be no standby queue, but individual LL will be available to purchase, though no prices were shared.
