I’ve been going to Disney World for over 30 years, and one of my favorite things to do is spend a whole day at a resort.

My parents and I recently booked a studio villa at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort using our Disney Vacation Club points. The club is Disney’s version of a timeshare program, and our membership allows us to pay annual dues for a set number of points to use at any DVC property.

Timeshares have become a multibillion-dollar industry, and I can see why they’re so popular. My family visits Disney World multiple times a year, so we really save money on accommodations with ours.

The standard-view studio at Polynesian Village typically costs about $990 a night, but a weeknight stay around the Fourth of July only cost us 20 points.

Here’s what it was like.
