S2 E21: All-Star Movies Resort DVC Expansion
We’re jumping into an exciting new concept for Disney's All-Star Resorts. After a bit of creative exploration, we’ve come up with a unique vision for a new Disney Vacation Club section, inspired by the 1998 film The Parent Trap. We’re reimagining part of the All Star Resorts with a new area called Camp Walden, featuring 40 cabin-style villas situated around an hourglass-shaped lake. This new section will blend the fun and value of Disney’s resorts with a touch of DVC luxury.
We’ll walk you through the details of Camp Walden, including its themed cabins, exclusive amenities, and exciting activities. From the Great Hall and Mess Hall to the Rec Center and holiday-themed magic, this new addition aims to create a memorable camp experience for guests. Plus, we’ll explore how this concept could influence future developments across Disney’s value and moderate resorts. Join us for an in-depth look at this imaginative project and its potential impact on Disney’s resort landscape!
