Disney’s price and renting the points, by resort
A deluxe studio for a night in December 2026, at each resort’s standard view, cheapest first. Renting the points is what a broker charges to have an owner book those nights for you with their points: the points times the published rate per point, for a request made today. It needs an owner with the points and a villa Disney still has free, and busy weeks fill early.

Before you book
- Disney’s price is its published rack rate for the same villa and nights, tax included, from MouseSavers. Disney sometimes discounts, which narrows the gap.
- A confirmed reservation is already booked, so its dates and villa are fixed. Read the cancellation terms on the listing before you pay.
- Nothing listed for your nights? A broker can have an owner book them with their points, as long as Disney still has a villa free on every night. The rental calculator prices any villa and dates.
